Scope note:	Péptidos catiónicos antimicrobianos, con un dominio aminoterminal similar a la catelina muy conservado y un dominio carboxiterminal más variable. Se sintetizan primero como preproteínas y a continuación se escinden. Se expresan en multitud de tejidos humanos y están localizados en los EPITELIOS. Destruyen los patógenos no virales por la formación de poros en las membranas.

Scope note:

Antimicrobial cationic peptides with a highly conserved amino terminal cathelin-like domain and a more variable carboxy terminal domain. They are initially synthesized as preproproteins and then cleaved. They are expressed in many tissues of humans and localized to EPITHELIAL CELLS. They kill nonviral pathogens by forming pores in membranes.
