CC -!- FUNCTION: PhTD-1 has antimicrobial activity. In low salt conditions
CC PhTD-1 has antibacterial activity against the Gram-negative bacterium
CC E.coli ML35p (MIC=1.5 uM), the Gram-positive bacteria L.monocytogenes
CC EGD (MIC=1.6 uM) and methicillin-resistant S.aureus ATCC 33591 (MIC=2.5
CC uM), and the fungus C.albicans 820 (MIC=1.6 uM). At high physiological
CC salt concentrations the antimicrobial activity of PhTD-1 decreases
CC slightly: E.coli ML35p (MIC=2.0 uM), L.monocytogenes EGD (MIC=1.7 uM),
CC S.aureus ATCC 33591 (MIC=3.6 uM), and C.albicans 820 (MIC=6.5 uM).
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20155756}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: PhTD-1 is a cyclic heterodimer composed of subunits A and B;
CC disulfide-linked. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20155756}.
CC -!- PTM: Forms a cyclic peptide with subunit A (PhTD-1). An additional
CC intersubunit disulfide bond is formed. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P82271,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:20155756}.
CC -!- MASS SPECTROMETRY: Mass=2051.9; Method=MALDI; Note=PhTD-1, heterodimer,
CC cyclized.; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:20155756};
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the alpha-defensin family. Theta subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000255}.
