Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Human β-defensin(HBD), a short cationic peptide found in humans, exhibits broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, making it a significant candidate for antimicrobial drug development. In previous studies, we fused human β-defensin 3 and human β-defensin 4 to create a chimeric human β-defensin, named H4, with enhanced antimicrobial activity and improved salt stability. However, due to the...
