Bioactivity
Human α-Defensin 6, a 32-residue, cysteine-rich peptide, plays a crucial role in mucosal immunity by inhibiting bacterial invasion through the formation of ordered self-assembly fibrils and nanonets, which bind to bacterial surface proteins and entangle the bacteria. Additionally, Human α-Defensin 6 impedes biofilm formation by C. albicans [1] [2].
