Physicochemical properties of the putative anticancer peptides compared with the non-anticancer peptides from fractions F2 and F5 of A. fulica mucus. Hydrophobicity (A), hydrophilicity (B), amphiphaticity (C) and hydrophathicity (D) scores of these peptides were computed by AntiCP. The boxplots were drawn by R program. The scores were shown in the black dots. The uppermost and lowermost ends represented maximum and minimum scores. The middle line indicated means and the two paralleled lines showed standard deviations.
