Role of Hepcidins from Black Rockfish (<i>Sebastes schlegelii</i>) in Iron-Metabolic Function and Bacterial Defense
Hepcidin, an antimicrobial peptide produced by the liver, also controls the iron balance and regeneration in vertebrates. Two types of hepcidin (Hamp1 and Hamp2) have been found in the bodies of black rockfish (<i>Sebastes schlegelii</i>). The full-length cDNA of hepcidin was cloned to e...
