Production of recombinant DNA fragmentation factor 40 in fusion to an antimicrobial peptide from spider venom and evaluation of its cytotoxic effects
Background and purpose: DNA fragmentation factor 40 (DFF40) as an apoptotic molecule can represent a novel approach to cancer treatment. Lycosin-I (LYC-I), a peptide derived from spider venom, was considered for the targeted delivery of DFF40 to cancer cells. This study attempted to produce soluble...
