Overview
The CT20p peptide, available in a 0.1 mg quantity, is a hydrophobic peptide derived from the C terminus of the Bax protein. Known for its unique cytotoxic properties, this peptide engages in mechanisms that promote cell death, distinguishing itself from the full-length Bax protein. Researchers have utilized CT20p in studies related to cancer treatment, where it plays a crucial role in altering mitochondrial morphology and movement. This results in disruption of the actin cytoskeleton, leading to cell detachment and loss of cell viability.
In addition to its application in cancer research, CT20p also exhibits antimicrobial properties, making it a versatile choice for your laboratory needs. If you’re looking to explore further, consider our selection of peptides that may complement your research.
