Secondary Information |
---|
Protein Function | amphipathic cationic peptides that
have been reported to function as AMPs for the Gramnegative,
Gram-positive bacteria, viruses, fungi, and
other unicellular parasites; confer resistance against
mastitis in cattle and buffalo next to the TLRs; |
---|
Biochemical Properties | cationic and cysteine-rich
AMP displaying a varied pattern of cysteine spacing and
disulfide bonding between cysteine residues; |
---|
Significance in milk | higher in early lactation stages than in the later stages
on infection by coagulase-positive Staphylococci |
---|
PTMs | Disulfide bond formation and Pyrrolidone carboxylic acid attachment |
---|
Site(s) of PTM(s)
N-glycosylation,
O-glycosylation,
Phosphorylation
