Structure determination of human and murine β-defensins reveals structural conservation in the absence of significant sequence similarity
Defensins are cationic and cysteine-rich peptides that play a crucial role in the host defense against microorganisms of many organisms by their capability to permeabilize bacterial membranes. The low sequence similarity among the members of the large mammalian β-defensin family suggests that their...
