Depiction of the current status of Q8N688 Beta-defensin 123. The protein is only 47 AAs long after cleavage of the 20 AA signal peptide. Three distinct peptide sequences are detected (plus a fully nested peptide), but only one of the three meets guideline length requirements. Yet, all of the expected tryptic peptides (plus one missed cleavage product) are detected with excellent spectra. Should this be sufficient?
