Scientists have discovered an unknown
of our immune system. It could be
in helping our
fight disease. The researchers are from a science
in Israel. Dr Yifat Merbl told the BBC the discovery "could provide an
source of natural antibiotics". She wrote in a

for previously undescribed diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in the
against infectious diseases." The "new" part of the immune system is from a
function that recycles proteins. It is capable of producing
