These are published properties of the molecule, given for identification. Values we cannot confirm are omitted rather than estimated. What these terms mean.
What this compound is
Twenty-four residues with a proline breaking the helix in the middle, the same architecture melittin uses.

- Three-letter code
- Phe-Trp-Gly-Ala-Leu-Ala-Lys-Gly-Ala-Leu-Lys-Leu-Ile-Pro-Ser-Leu-Phe-Ser-Ser-Phe-Ser-Lys-Lys-Asp
The one-letter code gives the amino-acid backbone. Terminal modifications, where a compound carries them, are accounted for in the molecular weight above but are not visible in the letters.
Residue composition
Counted directly from the sequence above. Pandinin 2 is built from 10 of the twenty standard amino acids across 24 positions.
