Product Description
As a kind of antimicrobial peptide, β-defensin is a kind of arginine-rich cationic low molecular short peptide, widely distributed in animals, plants and insects. In vitro bacteriostasis tests show that defensins can produce a strong killing effect on pathogenic microorganisms such as Gram-positive and negative bacteria, fungi, mycobacteria, spirochetes, and togaviruses, even on mycoplasma, chlamydia, spirochetes, and some malignant cells. (Such as tumor cells) and HIV also have a killing effect. The mass production of defensins expressed using genetic engineering technology has no toxic and side effects, nor does it mutate pathogenic microbial strains to produce drug resistance, and has a broad resistance spectrum. β-Defensin 2 (human) is composed of 41 amino acids, there are 6 cysteine in the sequence, and disulfide bonds are formed randomly under natural conditions, and the structure is relatively stable.
