RIP - Quorum sensing inhibitor of Staphylococcus spp. (Including MRSA)

RIP or RNAIII inhibiting peptide is a heptapeptide capable of severely reducing the Quorum sensing(QS) abilities of Staphylococcus species [1]. RIP effectively works as an antibiotic in its inhibition of bacterial biofilm-formation. It is important to note that even though it has the effect of an antibiotic [1] on bacterial load, the mechanism is a novel one, and doesn't appear to induce bacterial resistance [1].

RIP has the sequence YSPXTNF(where X can be a cysteine, a tryptophan, or a modified amino acid) and has been tested extensively in a synthetic (as in chemical synthesis) form for ability to inhibit bacterial infections in mice [1] and biofilm formation on human cells [2]. References will come later.

This is a pure RIP Brick, it contains no signal sequence and we can not expect nor verify that it will be exported by our Coli's
