Zusammenfassung

Zur Familie der Defensine gehören kleine, kationische Peptide mit großer antimikrobieller Aktivität gegen ein breites Spektrum von Bakterien, Pilzen und Viren [2]. Defensine wurden zunächst in Insekten identifiziert, deren immunologische Abwehr ausschließlich auf der Synthese antimikrobieller Substanzen beruht. Mittlerweile weiß man jedoch, daß auf Defensinen oder verwandten Proteinen basierende Abwehrmechanismen in der Evolution stark konserviert sind und in allen bisher untersuchten höheren Eukaryonten einen wesentlichen Beitrag zur angeborenen und unspezifischen Immunabwehr leisten [8].
