The confounding complexity of innate immune receptors within and between teleost species.
Fish & shellfish immunology - 1 Jun 2016

Abstract excerpt
Teleost genomes encode multiple multigene families of immunoglobulin domain-containing innate immune receptors (IIIRs) with unknown function and no clear mammalian orthologs. However, the genomic organization of IIIR gene clusters and the structure and signaling motifs of the proteins they encode are similar to those of mammalian innate immune receptor families such as the killer cell immunoglobulin-like...
