Molecular cloning and antibacterial activity of hepcidin from Chinese rare minnow (Gobiocypris rarus)
2015-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Hepcidins, a kind of cysteine-rich antimicrobial peptides, play important roles in host immunological processes and iron regulation, which have been identified from several fish species. The rare minnow (Gobiocypris rarus), an endemic cyprinid fish in China, has been used extensively as model animal in laboratory. However, little is known about its hepcidin. Here, we report the cloning and characterization of a he...
