CC -!- FUNCTION: Has bactericidal activity. Potent activity against C.jejuni,
CC C.perfringens, S.aureus, C.albicans and S.cerevisiae. Less potent
CC against S.typhimurium and E.coli. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17194828}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. Cytoplasmic granule {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Strong expression in the testis, liver, gall
CC bladder, kidney, esophagus and crop. Also expressed in the glandular
CC stomach, ovary and male and female reproductive tracts. Low expression
CC in the intestinal tract. Expressed in the ovarian stroma, but not in
CC the ovarian follicles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15148642,
