Q8WYQ5

Defensin 1 and defensin 2 have antibacterial, fungicideand antiviral activities. Has antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Defensins are thought to killmicrobes by permeabilizing their plasma membrane.{ECO:0000269|PubMed:15616305, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17452329}.
