298:-defensins, contains the defensins found in invertebrates, plants, and fungi. The superfamilies and families are determined by the overall tertiary structure, and each family usually has a conserved pattern of disulphide bonds. All defensins form small and compact folded structures, typically with a high positive charge, that are highly stable due to the multiple disulphide bonds. In all families, the underlying genes responsible for defensin production are highly
