Abstract excerpt
Toll-like receptor 22 (TLR22) is a fish-specific TLR which recognizes double-strand (ds) RNA and participates in the innate immune response through the Toll-IL-1R homology domain-containing adaptor protein 1 (TICAM-1). To further investigate how the innate immune system of teleosts responds to viral infections, we cloned the full-length cDNA sequence of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) TLR22 (CiTLR22). The...
