Tissue Specificity High-level and epididymis-specific expression. Most abundant in the epithelium of the caput and present in the epididymis lumen and bound to sperm. Also expressed in pancreas.
Post Translational Modifications The three-dimensional structure formed by the three intramolecular disulfide bridges is indispensable for antimicrobial activity.
Function Host defense peptide that exhibits antimicrobial activity against both Gram-negative bacteria, such as E.coli and S.typhimurium, and Gram-positive bacteria, such as S.aureus and B.subtilis. Inhibits cell adhesion of E.coli on intestinal epithelial enterocytes. Causes rapid permeabilization of both the outer and inner membrane of E.coli, leading to morphological alterations on the bacterial surface. Binds to bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) with high affinity, and may thereby be involved in immunoregulation through LPS neutralization. May contribute to epididymal innate immunity and protect the sperm against attack by microorganisms.
