Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23426625
Function
[DCD_HUMAN] DCD-1 displays antimicrobial activity thereby limiting skin infection by potential pathogens in the first few hours after bacterial colonization. Highly effective against E.coli, E.faecalis, S.aureus and C.albicans. Optimal pH and salt concentration resemble the conditions in sweat. Also exhibits proteolytic activity.[1] Survival-promoting peptide promotes survival of neurons and displays phosphatase activity. It may bind IgG.[2]
About this Structure
2ymk is a 3 chain structure. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
