Abstract excerpt
Mx (myxovirus-resistant) proteins are induced by interferon and inhibit viral replication in many vertebrates. In the present study, the organization of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) Mx2 (CiMx2) gene sequence was elucidated and its single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were investigated to explore their association with susceptibility/resistance to grass carp reovirus (GCRV). The CiMx2 genomic sequence is...
