Description
|
Defensin are 3-4 kDa antimicrobial peptides of which three distinct families have been identified; α-defensin, β-defensins, and insect defensins. Rat β-Defensin 1, as a member of the β-defensin family, is a salt-sensitive antimicrobial peptide present in epithelia of the lung and urogenital tract. The predicted amino acid sequence shows the hallmark features of other known epithelial β-defensins, including the ordered array of six cysteine residues.

Storage
|
This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 °C, but should be kept at -20 °C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8 °C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 °C to -70 °C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
