Molecular cloning and multifunctional characterization of host defense peptides from the bullfrog Harderian gland with special reference to catesbeianalectin
{{output}}
The Harderian gland (HG) is an orbital gland found in many terrestrial vertebrates that possess a nictitating membrane. Using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), we cloned five cDNAs encoding antimicrobial peptide (AMP)-homologs, catesbei... ...
