About This Section
Entrez Gene summary for DEFA6 Gene:
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. Several alpha defensin genes appear to be
clustered on chromosome 8. The protein encoded by this gene, defensin, alpha 6, is highly expressed in the
secretory granules of Paneth cells of the small intestine, and likely plays a role in host defense of human
bowel. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

GeneCards Summary for DEFA6 Gene: 
DEFA6 (defensin, alpha 6, Paneth cell-specific) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with DEFA6 include dacryocystitis, and ulcerative colitis, and among its related super-pathways are Immune System and Beta defensins. An important paralog of this gene is DEFA1B.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: DEF6_HUMAN, Q01524
Function: Has very low antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. May protect cells
against infection with HIV-1
