Tachyplesin is highly stable at low pH and high temperature. This stability seems to be due to the rigid structure imposed by the two disulfid linkage. | <ref name=Nakamura>Tachyplesin is highly stable at low pH and high temperature.

Besides, there exists H-bond and aromatic ring stacking interactions which helps stabilizing the hairpin loop structure of the peptide. | Besides, there exists H-bond and aromatic ring stacking interactions which helps stabilizing the hairpin loop structure of the peptide. | ||
