Target data

Function

Has bactericidal activity. May act as a ligand for C-C chemokine receptor CCR6. Positively regulates the sperm motility and bactericidal activity in a CCR6-dependent manner. Binds to CCR6 and triggers Ca2+ mobilization in the sperm which is important for its motility (PubMed:25122636).

Supplementary info

Activity summary

Beta Defensin 1 also known as DEFb-1 is an antimicrobial peptide with a mass of approximately 4.8 kDa. This defensin emits from epithelial cells across various tissues such as the respiratory tract urogenital tract and skin. It forms part of a family of small cysteine-rich cationic proteins. The defensin microenvironment allows it to disrupt microbial cell membranes providing immediate defense against pathogens.

Biological function summary

This defensin protein plays an important role in the innate immune system by protecting epithelial surfaces from infection. DEFb-1 does not act as part of a larger protein complex and it independently modulates immune responses. Its expression helps maintain a balanced relationship between the host's immune system and microbial populations reducing inflammatory reactions.

Pathways

The action of beta Defensin 1 integrates into the Toll-like receptor signaling and NF-kB pathways. It participates in regulating the immune response against microbial invasion. These pathways involve interactions with proteins like MyD88 and TRAF6 linking beta Defensin 1 to the broader network of innate immunity.

Associated diseases and disorders

DEFb-1 has associations with conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease and cystic fibrosis. In inflammatory bowel disease the reduced expression of beta Defensin 1 can disrupt gut microbiota balance while in cystic fibrosis altered defensin levels affect mucus-associated bacterial load. The interplay between DEFb-1 and the CFTR protein highlights its impact on surface clearance and infection susceptibility.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-beta Defensin 1 antibody [M11-14b-D10] (ab14425)

    ab14425 (2µg/ml) staining beta defensin in human kidney, using an automated system (DAKO Autostainer Plus). Using this protocol there is strong staining in the epithelial layers of the loops of Henle, distal tubules and collecting ducts.
    Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3 in 1 AR buffer EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 mins. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 min and detected with Dako envision flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with Diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that, for manual staining, optimization of primary antibody concentration and incubation time is recommended. Signal amplification may be required.
