About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for DEFA1:
Defensins are a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides thought to be involved in host defense. They are abundant
in the granules of neutrophils and also found in the epithelia of mucosal surfaces such as those of the intestine,
respiratory tract, urinary tract, and vagina. Members of the defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence
and distinguished by a conserved cysteine motif. The protein encoded by this gene, defensin, alpha 1, is found in the
microbicidal granules of neutrophils and likely plays a role in phagocyte-mediated host defense. Several alpha
defensin genes are clustered on chromosome 8. This gene differs from defensin, alpha 3 by only one amino acid. This
gene and the gene encoding defensin, alpha 3 are both subject to copy number variation. (provided by RefSeq, May 2010)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: DEF1_HUMAN, P59665
Function: Defensin 1 and defensin 2 have antibacterial, fungicide and antiviral activities. Has antimicrobial activity
against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Defensins are thought to kill microbes by permeabilizing their
plasma membrane
