Abstract excerpt
Anti-lipopolysaccharide factors (ALFs) of crustacean play an important role against bacteria or virus infection. In this study, the cDNA sequence and genomic sequence of one new isoform of ALF designated as nLvALF1 were reported. The open reading frame (ORF) of nLvALF1 consisted of 369 bp encoding 123 amino acids and the genomic structure of nLvALF1 comprised four introns and three exons. The predicted pI of the...
