§ 01 Overview
Overview
Autophagy-inducing peptide that enhances Beclin-1 activity, studied for neurodegeneration and infection in preclinical models.
Published preclinical work; no human trials.
§ 02 Mechanism
Mechanism of action
Tat-Beclin-1 is a cell-penetrating peptide fused to a region of Beclin-1. It competes with GAPR-1 to free Beclin-1, enhancing autophagy initiation.
