Description

Defensins (alpha and beta) are cationic peptides with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity that comprise an important arm of the innate immune system. The α-defensins are distinguished from the β-defensins by the pairing of their three disulfide bonds.  To date, six human β-defensins have been identified; BD-1, BD-2, BD-3, BD-4, BD-5 and BD-6.  β-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 β-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.  β-defensins contain a six-cysteine motif that forms three intra-molecular disulfide bonds.  Recombinant Human BD-1 is a 5.0 kDa protein containing 47 amino acid residues.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in 20 mM PB, pH 7.4, 130 mM NaCl.

Reconstitution

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.

 

Shipping and Storage
