However, some cleavage of the precursor occurred probably in sweat to produce different active forms of dermcidin peptide. The most abundant proteolytically processed DCD peptide presents in sweat is '''DCD-1L''' (in bold). | However, some cleavage of the precursor occurred probably in sweat to produce different active forms of dermcidin peptide.

DCD-1L is created by proteases in sweat after the first post-secretory processing step consisting to reduce the peptide to the C-terminal thereupon containing 48 residues, from the 63 to the 110 amino acid. And secondly, the cathepsin D with 1,10-phenthroline-sensitive carboxypeptidase still not cited in sweat composition yet and an unidentified endoprotease contribute to further processed the DCD-1L C-terminal to produce other derived-peptides <ref name = "cat">Daniel Baechle, Thomas Flad, Alexander Cansier, Heiko Steffen, Birgit Schittek, Jonathan Tolson, Timo Herrmann, Hassan Dihazi, Alexander Beck, Gerhard A.
