Contents

Beta-defensins comprise a family of cationic peptides, which are predominately expressed at epithelial surfaces and have a broad-range antimicrobial activity. We have assembled two BAC-based contigs from the chromosomal region 8A4 that contain the murine defensins, and we have mapped six reported beta-defensin genes. In addition, we have isolated a...
