Description

Mastoparan X is a GTP-binding regulatory protein (G protein)-activating peptide, and a tetradecapeptide from wasp venom. Mastoparan X acts function by the direct activation of G protein that couple to phospholipase C to cause secretion from various kinds of cells[1].

IC50 & Target

GTP-binding regulatory protein (G protein)[1]

In Vitro

Mastoparan X (1.5 mM) interacts with phospholipid bicelles, and results the line broadening[2].
Mastoparan X binds to the membrane, and increases the cell’s permeability to cations leading to a disruption in the electrolyte balance and cell lysis[2].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
