RT2

RT2 is a tryptophan-rich cationic amphipathic antibacterial peptide, with main targets including lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the bacterial surface and intracellular DNA. RT2 binds to bacterial surface LPS, and interacts with cytoplasmic membrane phospholipids, enabling it to rapidly penetrate the bacterial cell membrane and enter the cell, and then bind to components such as DNA in the cytoplasmic membrane, thereby exerting antibacterial effects. RT2 is promising for research of acute and chronic infections caused by planktonic bacteria[1].
