V.Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) play an important role in the host defense against various microbes. One of the most efficient human AMPs is the human beta defensin-3 (hBD-3) which is produced by, e.g. keratinocytes and lung epithelial cells. However, the structure-function relationship for AMPs and in particular for defensins with their typical three disulfide bonds is still poorly understood. In this study the importance of the three disulfide bonds for the activity of the AMPs is investigated with biological assays and with biophys
