Peroxidasin contributes to lung host defense by direct binding and killing of gram-negative bacteria.

Innate immune recognition is classically mediated by the interaction of host pattern-recognition receptors and pathogen-associated molecular patterns; this triggers a series of downstream signaling events that facilitate killing and elimination of invading pathogens. In this report, we provide the f...
