'''Dermcidin''' is a '''Human''' [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimicrobial_peptides_ antimicrobial peptide] of 110 amino acids presents in sweat involved in the regulation of skin flora. This molecule encoded by the ''DCD gene'' plays a role in the host defense system as a trimeric channel and thus, is able to prevent infection after injuries or any skin disorders. | '''Dermcidin''' is a '''Human''' [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimicrobial_peptides_ antimicrobial peptide] of 110 amino acids presents in sweat involved in the regulation of skin flora.
