Post Translational Modifications Glycosylated. Proteolytically cleaved at Arg-62 by trypsin. Both the propeptide form proHD5/HD5(20-94) and HD5(56-94) are cleaved into the lumenal peptide form HD5(63-94) by trypsin. Unprocessed proHD5 exerts antimicrobial activities, but peptide potency is enhanced by peptide processing. Proteolytically cleaved in duodenal fluid.derived fragments are antimicrobially active against commensal bacteria (in vitro). (Microbial infection) The disulfide bridges and homodimerization are a prerequisite for the enhancement of S.flexneri adhesion and invasion.
Function Host-defense peptide that maintains sterility in the urogenital system. Has antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacteria, including Gram-negative E.coli, P.aeruginosa and S.typhimurium, and Gram-positive E.aerogenes, S.aureus, B.cereus, E.faecium and L.monocytogenes. Confers resistance to intestinal infection by S.typhimurium. Exhibits antimicrobial activity against enteric commensal bacteria such as B.adolescentis, L.acidophilus, B.breve, L.fermentum, B.longum and S.thermophilus. Binds to bacterial membranes and causes membrane disintegration. Induces the secretion of the chemokine IL-8 by intestinal epithelial cells. Binds to B.antracis lef/lethal factor, a major virulence factor from B.anthracis, and neutralizes its enzymatic activity. (Microbial infection) Acts as a target for S.flexneri infection by binding to the bacterium, possibly via bacterial surface proteins, and thereby augmenting infectivity via enhanced bacterial adhesion and invasion of epithelial cells and tissues.
