Human Defensin-5 / SARS Interaction Peptide

Human defensin-5 is an intestinal alpha-defensin with antimicrobial and antiviral properties. This sequence has been investigated in vitro for interference with coronavirus spike-ACE2 interactions and is useful for host-defense and receptor-binding research.

• viral immunology and T-cell research
• epitope mapping and antigen presentation
• cell-penetrating peptide studies
• host-pathogen interaction research

Exact residue boundaries, fluorescent labels, species origin and HLA/MHC context are integral to reagent identity. These products are intended for research use and should be matched to the specific assay design.
