Detection of chimeric alpha-defensin transcripts and peptides in mouse Paneth cells by Steven Timmermans, Steven Timmermans, Charlotte Wallaeys, Charlotte Wallaeys, Somara De Beul, Somara De Beul, Natalia Garcia-Gonzales, Natalia Garcia-Gonzales, Claude Libert, Claude Libert

“…IntroductionIn mammals, Paneth cells, located in the crypts of the small intestine, produceantimicrobial peptides that serve to keep the intestinal microbiome under control. a-Defensins are the primary antimicrobial peptides produced by these cells.MethodsWe used 148 publicly available bulk RNA-seq samples on purified PCs, proteomics on enriched purified PC proteins and Defa peptide activity assays to detect all Defa transcrips, including potential chimeric transcrips.ResultsWe identified 28 expressed Defa genes in mice, with up to 85% of Paneth cell RNA reads mapping to these genes. …”
