Antimicrobial Peptide are a family of 6 peptides: 4 human neutrophil peptides [HNP-1, HNP-2, HNP-3, HNP-4] and 2 human defensins [HD-5 and HD-6]. Among them, the primary structures of HNP-1, HNP-2 (Alpha-Defensin-2) and HNP-3 differ only at the amino-terminal residue, in which the first residue is Ala for HNP-1 and Asp for HNP-3, whereas HNP-2 lacks this position, resulting in the 29-residue peptide. Recent studies in mass spectroscopic analysis clarified that Alpha-Defensin-2 (Human) is the second major component in squamous cell carcinoma of human tongue and gingival crevicular fluid from periodontitis patients and healthy controls, where HNP-1 is the most abundant and HNP-3 is the least. Taking this fact into account, it is speculated that HNP-2 is produced post-translationally from HNP-3. Concerning the activity, HNP-2 (Alpha-Defensin-2) is revealed to be as active as HNP-1 in neutralizing anthrax lethal toxin and blocking papillomavirus infection, although some differences were pointed out in the candidacidal activity among HNPs. Anyhow HNP-2 has now been added to our catalog, in addition to HNP-1 and HNP-3. Thus more precise experiments will be possible to eludicidate the biological roles of the individual peptides of co-existing HNP-1, HNP-2 and HNP-3 in the body.
