The review discusses the structure of peptidoglycan-recognition proteins (PGRP) and their involvement in the processes occurring in human immune system. The data on bactericidal, anti-phlogistic, antitumor and other types of activities of the members of the PGRP family were summarized. A structural and functional diversity of the individual representatives of the PGRP family was shown. A contribution of the PGRP-complexes to the immune response development was discussed.

Key words:  cytotoxicity,  Hsh70,  PGRP1.
