SR-CAT POLYPEPTIDE-4.

Insufficient Data / ANTIOXIDANT, HAIR CONDITIONING, SKIN PROTECTING

SR-CAT POLYPEPTIDE-4 is a precisely engineered, single-chain recombinant spider protein. Derived from *Araneus diadematus* dragline silk via fermentation, it is designed to offer antioxidant benefits and strengthen the skin's protective barrier.

antioxidant hair conditioning skin protecting

Science

Mechanism of Action

This polypeptide operates as a bio-engineered protein, specifically a recombinant spidroin 1 derived from *Araneus diadematus* through E. coli fermentation. Its primary functions include acting as an antioxidant, providing skin protection, and offering hair conditioning. In line with general peptide mechanisms, it is believed to signal endogenous skin repair pathways, encourage regeneration in mature skin, fortify skin structure, and contribute to improved elasticity, complexion, and a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles.
