Molecular cloning and characterization of Defensin beta 103a, Hepcidin and Cathelicidin Antimicrobial peptides in Eonycteris speleae and Pteropus alecto
In this study, characterization of Defensin beta 103a, hepcidin and cathelicidin is reported for the first time in bats. AMPs are one of the most ancient innate immune defense weapons and are widely distributed in vertebrate taxa. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that non-synonymous substitutions...
