Product Overview
Clone 20D19 is a rabbit monoclonal antibody that recognizes beta-defensin 1 (gene DEFB1) in human samples and is validated for Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 7.4 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 7 kDa.
Human β-defensin 1 (hBD-1, encoded by DEFB1) is an antimicrobial peptide that is constantly produced by epithelial cells of the skin, airways, urogenital tract and kidney. It kills bacteria and can bind the chemokine receptor CCR6, linking innate and adaptive immunity. It has also been reported to support sperm motility. hBD-1 is studied in mucosal host defense.
