Anti-hBD-27 antibodies enable researchers to detect and measure the hBD-27 antigen in biological samples. This target is a reported synonym of the DEFB127 gene, which encodes defensin beta 127. This protein is known to function in innate immune responses, among other biological roles. The human version of hBD-27 has a canonical amino acid length of 99 residues and a protein mass of 11.3 kilodaltons. It is reported to be a secreted protein. hBD-27 is a member of the Beta-defensin protein family.
