Figure 1

Amino acid sequence alignment of epididymal HE2 peptides with human β-defensins 1 and 2. Amino acid sequence shown in blue corresponds to the C-terminal peptides used in this study. The characteristic β-defensin six cysteine motif is represented in red.represents the cleavage site where the full length proteins are cleaved to release the C-terminal peptides.
