Description

Enterocin K1 (EntK1) is a bacteriocin. Enterocin K1 is a ribosomal synthetic peptide. Enterocin K1 specifically targets Enterococcus faecalis via the Eep protein on the bacterial membrane. Enterocin K1 displays a potent antibacterial activity against VRE. Enterocin K1 can be used for related studies of VRE infections[1].

In Vitro

Enterocin K1 has antibacterial activity against different Enterococci with MIC values ranging from 0.048 mg/mL to 1.56 mg/mL[1].
Enterocin K1 (0.01、0.1 and 1 mg/mL) shows no significant erythrocyte hemolysis is observed in human whole blood[1].
Enterocin K1 (1 mg/mL; 0-48 h) shows the inhibitory effect of it on bacteriocins after incubation in whole blood and plasma was 2-fold higher in plasma than in saline and 2-fold higher in blood than in plasma[1].
Enterocin K1 (10 μl of 1 mg/mL; 24 h) inhibits most of the bacteriocins with MIC values higher than 25 mg/ml in a cross-resistant manner in the spot-on-lawn assay[1].

MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Cell Viability Assay[1]

Cell Line: bacteriocin
Concentration: 1 mg/mL
Incubation Time: 8, 24, 48 h
Result: Showed that after 8 h, the MIC of bacteriocin in saline was 0.19 mg/mL, and the MIC of bacteriocin in plasma was 0.78 mg/mL. The MIC of bacteriocin was 1.56 mg/mL in blood, 0.39 mg/mL in saline, 1.56 mg/mL in plasma, and 3.125 mg/m in blood after 48 hours.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
