Fibrinogen-Related Proteins (FREPs) in Mollusks.

Results and problems in cell differentiation - 1 Jan 2015

Adema Coen M

Abstract excerpt

Anti-parasite responses of the snail Biomphalaria glabrata involve antigen-reactive plasma lectins termed fibrinogen-related proteins (FREPs) comprising a C-terminal fibrinogen (FBG) domain and one or two upstream immunoglobulin domains. FREPs are highly polymorphic; they derive from several gene families with multiple loci and alleles that are diversified by exon loss, alternative splicing, and random somatic...
