Defensin Beta 2 (DEFb2) Active Protein | DEFb2 active protein
Active Defensin Beta 2 (DEFb2)
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
Activity Data
(Figure. The binding activity of DEFb2 with KCNA3.Defensin Beta 2 (DEFb2) known as skin-antimicrobial peptide 1 (SAP1) is a cysteine-rich cationic low molecular weight antimicrobial peptide. Defensins form a family of microbicidal and cytotoxic peptides made by neutrophils. Members of the defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence. DEFb2 is produced by a number of epithelial cells and exhibits potent antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative bacteria and Candida, but not Gram-positive S. aureus. Besides, potassium voltage-gated channel, shaker-related subfamily, member 3 (KCNA3) has been identified as an interactor of DEFb2, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human DEFb2 and recombinant human KCNA3. Briefly, DEFb2 were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100uL were then transferred to KCNA3-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37 degree C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-DEFb2 pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37 degree C. Finally, add 50uL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of DEFb2 and KCNA3 was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.)

Product Notes
The DEFb2 defb4a (Catalog #AAA2105069) is an Active Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is Gly24~Pro64. AAA Biotech's Defensin Beta 2 (DEFb2) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Cell Culture, Activity Assays. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DEFb2 defb4a for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Defensin Beta 2 (DEFb2), Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
