Target Information
Bovine beta-defensin 1 is an antimicrobial peptide that is a crucial component of the innate immune system in cattle. It is involved in the body's first line of defense against a range of pathogens, including bacteria responsible for mastitis such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. This protein plays a vital role in immune defense by disrupting the membranes of target microbes, leading to their destruction. It also exhibits immunomodulatory properties, influencing the chemotaxis of dendritic cells and the secretion of cytokines.
