Medical Definition of Cationic protein
1.
Proteins of azurophil granules of neutrophils, rich in arginine. A chymotrypsin like protease found in azurophil granules is also very cationic as is cathepsin G and neutrophil elastase.
Eosinophil cationic protein (21 kD) is particularly important because it damages schistosomula in vitro.
