Abstract excerpt
Lysozyme is a ubiquitous hydrolase that plays an important role in protecting the host against pathogenic infection. In the present study, the genomic DNA sequence of an invertebrate goose type (G type) lysozyme (designated CfLysG) was cloned from Zhikong scallop Chlamys farreri by genome walking technique. The full-length DNA of CfLysG gene was of 9455bp, and the fragment from the transcription site to the...
