2. Antimicrobial peptides and proteins in innate immunity : emphasis on isolation, characterization and gene regulation
Abstract : Antimicrobial peptides are endogenous antibiotics and effector molecules of Innate immunity. These peptides are mainly localised to epithelial linings and circulating neutrophils. They kill microbes by disruption of their membranes. The two main families of mammalian antimicrobial peptides are defensins and cathelicidins. READ MORE
