Application Notes
WB: Approx. 10 kDa band observed in human spleen lysates (calculated MW of 10.2 kDa band according to NP_004075.1). An additional band of unknown identity was also consistently observed at 20 kDa. This band was successfully blocked by incubation with the immunizing peptide. IHC-P: Thymus shows staining of selected cells.
Please Note: Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.

Background: alpha-Defensin 1

Defensins are a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides thought to be involved in host defense. They are abundantin 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 sequenceand 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 1, is found in the microbicidal granules of neutrophils and likelyplays a role in phagocyte-mediated host defense. It differs from defensin, alpha 3 by only one amino acid. (providedby RefSeq)
