Midkine - a host defence protein
… barrier protecting us and they also produce antimicrobial polypeptides (AMPs) that act as a chemical barrier. These AMPs are small and positively charged, killing a broad range of microbes rapidly. They can either be constitutively produced or rapidly induced when epithelial cells encounter …

Synthesis and testing of novel polypeptides for biological applications
… behavior of these macromolecules. Synthetic polypeptides have received attention because of their unique structural properties and biocompatibility. Like their naturally occurring analogs, these molecules have a poly(amino acid) backbone and posses the ability to fold into secondary …

Understanding the biochemical properties and physiological function of the protein syncollin
… unidentified member of a large group of antimicrobial polypeptides that control the gut microbiome. I found that expression of syncollin in neutrophils is punctate and granular. Upon activation of the neutrophils, syncollin became mobilized at the plasma membrane, and was also secreted …
