alpha-s2-casein(164-179) |
Trem-like transcript 1 protein |

This bioactive fragment of alpha-s2-casein (TKLTEEEKNRLNFLKKISQRYQKFΑLPQYLK) has been identified by Liu et al (2015) by virtual screening of an endogenous bovine milk peptide database for charge, amphipathy, and predicted secondary structure. The fragment shows antimicrobial activity against Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli and thus may have functions as a defense peptide.
