'''Dermcidin''' is a '''Human antimicrobial, anionic and ion membrane channel''' ([https://www.rcsb.org/structure/2YMK_ 2YMK]) discovered in 2001 based on 6 dermcidin antimicrobial peptides of 110 amino acids present in sweat. The skin's role is to be a barrier, and it is thanks to all the antimicrobial peptides such as Dermicidin that it can be fulfill. | '''Dermcidin''' is a '''Human antimicrobial, anionic and ion membrane channel''' ([https://www.rcsb.org/structure/2YMK_ 2YMK]) discovered in 2001 based on 6 dermcidin antimicrobial peptides of 110 amino acids present in sweat. The skin's role is to be a barrier, and it is thanks to all the antimicrobial peptides such as Dermicidin that it can be fulfill. The dermcidin peptide, encoded by the ''DCD gene'', play a role in the host defense system as a trimeric channel and thus, are able to prevent infection after injuries or any skin disorders. Scientists are focused on this molecule due to his charge particularity and since antibiotic resistances have been observed. | ||
