Product Overview:
Melittin is a small protein that is the principal cytotoxic component of venom of the honey bee, A. mellifera.{29574} Structurally, melittin consists of two α-helical segments forming a bent rod, with hydrophilic residues on the convex side and hydrophobic sites on the concave side.{29574,29572} This allows melittin molecules to assemble as tetramers on membrane surfaces and form pores, resulting in cell death. Bee venom is also known to stimulate phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity, and this may be linked to melittin-mediated pore production as well as the presence of low molecular weight PLA2 enzymes in the venom.{29572,29573} Melittin also has antimicrobial properties, which, combined with its cytolytic properties, extends its potential for therapeutic applications.{29573}

Cayman Chemical's mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.

Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.

Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.

Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
