Antimicrobial activity and molecular mechanism of the CRES protein.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2012

Wang Li, Yuan Qing, Chen Sunhong, Cai Heng, Lu Meige, Liu Yue, Xu Chen

Abstract excerpt

Cystatin-related epididymal spermatogenic (CRES) protein, a member of the cystatin superfamily of cysteine protease inhibitors (also known as CST8), exhibits highly specific, age-dependent expression in mouse testis and epididymis. The CRES protein possesses four highly conserved cysteine residues which govern the overall conformation of the cystatins through the formation of two disulfide bonds. Previous studies...
