A bactericidal peptide derived by proteolytic cleavage from horse myoglobin (Mak et al, 2001). This peptide fragment has no hemolytic activity but is active against Escherichia coli. A slight, concentration-independent cytotoxic effect has been observed on fibroblasts and hepatoma cells (Mak et al, 2000).
