Cardiotoxin Analog (CTX) IV (6-12)

Description

Cardiotoxin Analog CTX IV 6-12 is a membrane active peptide that specifically targets negatively charged phospholipid membranes such as phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylinositol and can be isolated from the venom of the Taiwan cobra. Cardiotoxin Analog CTX IV 6-12 is a snake venom cardiotoxin that binds to cell membranes and embeds into lipid bilayers through hydrophobic interactions and electrostatic attraction, thereby destroying the stability of membrane structure. Cardiotoxin Analog CTX IV 6-12 can induce membrane lipid disorder and cell lysis, exhibiting hemolysis and cytotoxicity.
