Antimicrobial protein that kills intracellular pathogens. Active against a broad range of microbes, including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, and parasites. Kills Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Background
Granulysin is a substance released by cytotoxic T cells (CD8) when they are attached to infected body cells. The product of this gene is a member of the saposin-like protein (SAPLIP) family. It is mapped to 2p11.2. Granulysin functions to create holes in the target cell membrane and destroy it. It is able to induce apoptosis in target cells and also has antimicrobial action. This gene is expressed in cytolytic granules with perforin, a pore forming protein, and granzymes that are also involved in cytolysis. In addition to it, Granulysin is broadly antimicrobial, killing microbes that cause, for example, tuberculosis and malaria, and can destroy some tumors. A series of peptides generated from the amino acid sequence of Granulysin are potential antibiotics. It has been found that secretory Granulysin is a key molecule responsible for the disseminated keratinocyte death in SJS/TEN.
