Bioactivity | Defensin HNP-3 human is a cytotoxic antibiotic peptide known as "defensin". Defensin HNP-3 human has inhibitory activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Defensin HNP-3 human is initially synthesized as the 94 amino acids preproHNP(1-94), which is hydrolyzed to proHNP(20-94) and converted to mature HNP(65-94) after the removal of anion precursors[1][2]. |
