Biochem/physiol Actions

Pep2-8, a good mimic of epidermal growth factor precursor homology domain A (EGF-A), serves as a competitive inhibitor of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor binding. It can be used as an anchor peptide in phage-display experiments to bind an extension peptide library to the groove site.
Pep2-8 is a potent PCSK9 (proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9) inhibitor that selectively binds to PCSK9 and interferes with LDL receptor binding to PCSK9. Pep2-8 restores LDL receptor function and LDL uptake of PCSK9-treated HepG2 cells.
