Structural highlights

2mit is a 2 chain structure. Full experimental information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
Resources:FirstGlance, OCA, RCSB, PDBsum

Function

[DEF5_HUMAN] Has antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Defensins are thought to kill microbes by permeabilizing their plasma membrane. All DEFA5 peptides exert antimicrobial activities, but their potency is affected by peptide processing.[1] [2] [3]
