Beta-defensin 1 polyclonal, anti-human, mouse, rat

Protein Family: Cell Adhesion Molecules

Pathway and Disease: Signal Transduction, Signaling Molecules and Interaction, Immune System, Infectious Diseases

Description:
Beta-defensin 1 is a peptide with bactericidal activity. The exact mechanism of the antimicrobial activity of defensins is not known, but two models have been postulated, one involving pore formation and the other involving nonspecific electrostatic interaction with the bacterial membrane.
