Bioactivity | The P160 peptide is a breast cancer-targeting peptide that binds to the keratin 1 (KRT1) receptor on breast cancer cells, with a Kd of approximately 1.1 μM, demonstrating significant potential for targeted drug delivery to breast cancer cells. The P160 peptide enhances the cellular uptake and anticancer activity of the pro-apoptotic antimicrobial peptide MccJ25 (microcin J25). The P160 peptide can be used in cancer research[1]. |
