Protein name Histatin-1 (Hst1) (Histidine-rich protein 1) (Post-PB protein) (PPB) [Cleaved into: His1-(31-57)-peptide (His1 31/57) (His1-(12-38)-peptide) (His1 12/38) (Histatin 2) (Hst2) (Histatin-2)]
Protein function Histatins (Hsts) are cationic and histidine-rich secreted peptides mainly synthesized by saliva glands of humans and higher primates (PubMed:3286634, PubMed:3944083). Hsts are considered to be major precursors of the protective proteinaceous str
