| Bioactivity | Gly6 (Hexaglycine) is a linear glycine oligopeptide with six glycines[1][2]. |
| Invitro | The mode of action of zoocin A against sensitive streptococci is lytic, that lysis occurs as a direct result of the interaction of zoocin A with the cell, and that zoocin A and lysostaphin are both capable of cleaving the peptide substrate Gly6 (Hexaglycine)[1]. |
