Comparative genomic identification and validation of β-defensin genes in the Ovis aries genome
BACKGROUND: β-defensins are small, cationic, antimicrobial peptides found in species across the plant and animal kingdoms. In addition to microbiocidal activity, roles in immunity as well as reproduction have more recently been documented. β-defensin genes in Ovis aries (domestic sheep) have been po...
