Histatin-3/HTN3 Protein, Human
Based on 1 Customer Validation
The Histatin-3/HTN3 protein is a key salivary component and a major precursor in the formation of the enamel film on the tooth surface. In addition to its structural role, histatin-3 also exhibits antibacterial and antifungal activity, particularly through its His3-(20-43)-peptide (histatin-5). Histatin-3/HTN3 Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived Histatin-3/HTN3 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Description

Background
Histatin-3/HTN3 Protein, a vital component of salivary proteins, plays a crucial role as a major precursor in the formation of the protective proteinaceous structure on tooth surfaces, known as the enamel pellicle. Beyond its structural function, histatin-3 exhibits notable antibacterial and antifungal activities, with its His3-(20-43)-peptide (histatin-5) demonstrating particular efficacy against C. albicans and C. neoformans, while also inhibiting Lys-gingipain and Arg-gingipain (rgpB) from P. gingivalis. This peptide additionally serves as a potent inhibitor of metalloproteinases MMP2 and MMP9. Intriguingly, the His3-(20-43)-peptide exists as a homodimer. Histatin-3, along with its His3-(20-43)-peptide counterpart, interacts with yeast SSA1 and SSA2 proteins, emphasizing its multifaceted roles in host defense and oral health.
