Peptides In Polybia Paulista

Most venom from Polybia Paulista is composed of short and linear peptides, these peptides are consists of two or more amino acids, and these amino acids are linked together by a peptide, there can be a lot of amino acids and a lot of peptides and all of them are bind together. But only five of those peptides in the venom are functionally and structurally characterized to be a cancer killing agent. Although fourteen major peptides were detected and has been sequenced in the venom of the social wasp, Polybia Paulista. All of these fourteen peptides were known and synthesized on a solid-phase and submitted to a series of biological tests and cases, therefore, it is still under a process of observations, tests and research. Five of those peptides
