| Protein name | Beta-defensin Defensin beta 118 (Beta-defensin 18) (DEFB-18) (Epididymal secretory protein 13.6) (ESP13.6) |
| Synonyms | ESC42 C20orf63 DEFB18 hCG_1644909 |
| Description | FUNCTION: Host defense peptide that exhibits antimicrobial activity against both Gram-negative bacteria, such as E.coli and S.typhimurium, and Gram-positive bacteria, such as S.aureus and B.subtilis . Inhibits cell adhesion of E.coli on intestinal epithelial enterocytes . Causes rapid permeabilization of both the outer and inner membrane of E.coli, leading to morphological alterations on the bacterial surface . Binds to bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) with high affinity, and may thereby be involved in immunoregulation through LPS neutralization . May contribute to epididymal innate immunity and protect the sperm against attack by microorganisms . . FUNCTION: Has antibacterial activity. . |
