The salmonid cathelicidins: a gene family with highly varied C-terminal antimicrobial domains.

Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Part B, Biochemistry & molecular biology - 1 Apr 2009

Abstract excerpt

The cathelicidin family of host defence peptides is regarded as an important component of the host innate immune system. Its members have been found in mammals, birds, primitive vertebrate Atlantic hagfish and, most recently, also in ray-finned fish such as rainbow trout and Atlantic salmon. By using genomic PCR amplifications and RT-PCR tissue analyses we have here investigated and characterized the cathelicidin...
