Description
Product Characteristics: For the quantitative determination of human β-defensins 2 concentrations in serum, urine, cell culture supernates, tissue homogenates.
Target Information: Defensins form a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides made by neutrophils. Members of the defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence. This gene encodes defensin, beta 4, an antibiotic peptide which is locally regulated by inflammation. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
