Additional Names:
BD5, DEFB5, DEFB105a, Beta-Defensin 5
Extra Details:
Defensins (A Alpha and B Beta) are cationic peptides with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity that comprise an important arm of the innate immune system. The A Alpha-defensins are distinguished from the B Beta-defensins by the pairing of their three disulfide bonds. To date, six human B Beta-defensins have been identified; BD-1, BD-2, BD-3, BD-4, BD-5 and BD-6. B Beta-defensins are expressed on some leukocytes and at epithelial surfaces. In addition to their direct antimicrobial activities, they can act as chemoattractants towards immature dendritic cells and memory T cells. The B Beta-defensin proteins are expressed as the C-terminal portion of precursors, and are released by proteolytic cleavage of a signal sequence and, in some cases, a propeptide sequence. B Beta-defensins contain a six-cysteine motif that forms three intra-molecular disulfide bonds. Recombinant Human BD-5 is a 5.8 kDa protein containing 51 amino acid residues.
