MyBioSource.com's BD1 antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Block/Neutralize/Inhibit, ELISA, and Western Blot. The BD1 antibody was generated using BD1, DEFB1, defensin beta 1, and HBD1 as the antigen and it reacts with Human.
Description
Affinity purified Rabbit polyclonal BD1 antibody
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 a-defensins are distinguished from the beta-defensins by the pairing of their three disulfide bonds. To date, four human beta-defensins have been identified; BD-1, BD-2, BD-3 and BD-4. beta-defensins are expressed on some leukocytes and at epithelial surfaces. In addition to their direct antimicrobial activities, they are chemoattractant towards immature dendritic cells and memory T cells
