BD1 antibody

Antigen: BD1

Clonality: Polyclonal

Host: Rabbit

Application: ELISA, Blocking Antibody (Inhibition), Western Blotting (WB)

Catalog no.: ABIN636672

Additional Information

Immunogen: BD1 antibody was raised in rabbit using highly pure recombinant human BD-1 as the immunogen.

Description: Defensins (alpha and beta) are cationic peptides with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity that comprise an important arm of the innate immune system. The a-defensins are distinguished from the beta-defensins by the pairing of their three disulfide bonds. To date, four human beta-defensins have been identified, BD-1, BD-2, BD-3 and BD-4. beta-defensins are expressed on some leukocytes and at epithelial surfaces. In addition to their direct antimicrobial activities, they are chemoattractant towards immature dendritic cells and memory T cells.

Molecular Weight: 5 kDa (predicted detection band MW)
