Defensins1
In the last decades, a number of AMPs such as the ceropins, histatins, defensins, and cathlicidins have been isolated from various animals or microbial species [ 20 , 21 ]. (biomedcentral.com)

Histatin1
Histatin 2 is a degradation product of histatin 1, and all other histatins are degradation products of Histatin 3 through the process of post-translational proteolysis of the HTN3 gene product. (wikipedia.org)
