| + | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/DEF3_HUMAN DEF3_HUMAN] Defensin 2 and defensin 3 have antibiotic, fungicide and antiviral activities. Has antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Defensins are thought to kill microbes by permeabilizing their plasma membrane.<ref>PMID:15616305</ref> <ref>PMID:2006422</ref> <ref>PMID:15894545</ref> <ref>PMID:17452329</ref> | ||

| + | == Publication Abstract from PubMed == | ||
| + | Defensins (molecular weight 3500 to 4000) act in the mammalian immune response by permeabilizing the plasma membranes of a broad spectrum of target organisms, including bacteria, fungi, and enveloped viruses. The high-resolution crystal structure of defensin HNP-3 (1.9 angstrom resolution, R factor 0.19) reveals a dimeric beta sheet that has an architecture very different from other lytic peptides. The dimeric assembly suggests mechanisms by which defensins might bind to and permeabilize the lipid bilayer. | ||
