Genomic structure and transcriptional regulation of the penaeidin gene family from Litopenaeus vannamei.

Gene - 12 Apr 2006

O'Leary Nuala A, Gross Paul S

Abstract excerpt

Penaeidins are a family of shrimp antimicrobial peptides that have a unique molecular structure consisting of a highly conserved leader peptide followed by an N-terminal proline-rich domain and a C-terminal cysteine-rich domain. Three distinct classes of penaeidins, named PEN2, PEN3, and PEN4, are expressed in the hemocytes of the Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. Multiple isoforms, generated by...
