Novel antibacterial activity of β(2)-microglobulin in human amniotic fluid.

Novel antibacterial activity of β(2)-microglobulin in human amniotic fluid.

An antibacterial protein (about 12 kDa) was isolated from human amniotic fluid through dialysis, ultrafiltration and C18 reversed-phase HPLC steps. Automated Edman degradation showed that the N-terminal sequence of the antibacterial protein was NH(2)-Ile-Gln-Arg-Thr-Pro-Lys-Ile-Gln-Val-Tyr-Ser-Arg-H...
