Overview

Research peptide derived from the p53 tumor suppressor protein, designed to selectively bind to HDM-2 protein (human MDM-2) overexpressed on cancer cell membranes. Induces selective lysis of tumor cells without affecting normal cells. Used exclusively in oncology research contexts.

Sequence (1 letter): PPLSQETFSDLWKLLKKWKMRRNQFWVKVQRG
Extended notation: Pro-Pro-Leu-Ser-Gln-Glu-Thr-Phe-Ser-Asp-Leu-Trp-Lys-Leu-Leu-Lys-Lys-Trp-Lys-Met-Arg-Arg-Asn-Gln-Phe-Trp-Val-Lys-Val-Gln-Arg-Gly

Hybrid peptide — sequence derived from p53 with HDM-2 binding domain, contains modified amino acids

Half-life

~1-3 hours

Administration Route

Subcutaneous

Category

Specialized Research

Mechanism of Action

  • Selective binding to HDM-2 expressed on cancer cell membranes
  • Induction of selective tumor cell lysis via membrane pore formation
  • Preservation of normal cells that do not express HDM-2 on the surface
  • Activation of apoptotic pathways in neoplastic cells
