Mastoparan B (MP-B) is a cationic tetradecapeptide isolated from the black-bellied hornet (Vespa basalis) venom. It has a primary structure (LKLKSIVSWAKKVL-CONH2) distinct from other vespine mastoparans. The peptide caused a dose-dependent swelling in rat hind paw and showed a potent

Mastoparan B (MP-B) is a cationic tetradecapeptide (LKLKSIVSWAKKVL-CONH(2)) isolated from the venom of the Taiwan hornet Vespa basalis. Unlike other vespid mastoparans, the peptide is capable of inducing short-term hypotension and causes hemolysis in animals. This study was aimed to

Mastoparan B, a tetradecapeptide toxin (LKLKSIVSWAKKVL) isolated from the hornet (Vespa basalis) venom, was synthesized chemically. The physical and biological properties of both the native and synthetic peptides were studied and proved to be identical. Mastoparan B was found to
