Bioactivity | Azurin p28 peptide is a tumor-penetrated antitumor peptide. Azurin p28 peptide redues proteasomal degradation of p53 through formation of a p28: p53 complex. Azurin p28 peptide induces apoptosis or cell cycle arrest. Azurin p28 peptide inhibits p53-positive tumor growths. Azurin p28 peptide shows antiangiogenic effect by inhibiting phosphorylation of VEGFR-2, FAK and Akt[1][2][3]. |
