AMP-IBP5 & prepro-IGFBP-5 Peptides — frequently asked
What is AMP-IBP5?
AMP-IBP5 is an antimicrobial peptide corresponding to residues 193-214 of the prepro form of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5. It is one of several cryptic peptides reported to be encoded within larger precursor proteins and characterised for antimicrobial activity.
What are the other prepro-IGFBP-5 peptides?
Three further internal sequences from the same precursor are catalogued as peptides 1, 2 and 3, covering residues 98-122, 140-156 and 175-192. They are typically used alongside AMP-IBP5 for comparison in antimicrobial screening and as immunogens or assay standards.
Which species are covered?
The relevant precursor regions are conserved, so most listings are labeled for human, rat, mouse, bovine and porcine sequences simultaneously. Where an assay depends on exact sequence identity, the residues stated on the individual product page should still be verified.
