Description
RP-1 is an 18-amino-acid peptide modeled in part upon α-helical C-terminal microbicidal domains of mammalian CXCL4 kinocidins. RP-1 has some structural similarities with the antimicrobial peptide C18G. RP-1 is an antimicrobial peptide, and is active against S. aureus, S. typhimurium, E. coli, and C. albicans.

About TFA salt
Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a common counterion from the purification process using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). The presence of TFA can affect the peptide's net weight, appearance, and solubility.
Impact on Net Weight: The TFA salt contributes to the total mass of the product. In most cases, the peptide content constitutes >80% of the total weight, with TFA accounting for the remainder.
Solubility: TFA salts generally enhance the solubility of peptides in aqueous solutions.
In Biological Assays: For most standard in vitro assays, the residual TFA levels do not cause interference. However, for highly sensitive cellular or biochemical studies, please be aware of its presence.
