Summary Defensins are cysteine-rich cationic polypeptides that are important in the host immunologic response to invading microorganisms. The protein encoded by this gene is secreted and is a member of the beta defensin protein family. Beta defensin genes are found in several clusters throughout the genome, with this gene mapping to a cluster at 20q11.1. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
