Invitrogen™ Defensin 6 Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

Supplier:  Invitrogen™ PA550357

Catalog No. PA550357

Description

The antibody detects endogenous levels of total DEFA6 protein.

Defensins are a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides thought to be involved in host defense. They are abundant in the granules of neutrophils and also found in the epithelia of mucosal surfaces such as those of the intestine, respiratory tract, urinary tract, and vagina. Members of the defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence and distinguished by a conserved cysteine motif. Several alpha defensin genes appear to be clustered on chromosome 8.
