Abstract excerpt
Serine protease inhibitors (SPIs) play a crucial role in regulation of both host and bacterial serine protease. They are classified into several protein families, where Kazal-type inhibitors are one of families with multi-domain. In the present study, the polymorphism of AiSPI from Bay scallop Argopecten irradians was found to be associated with disease resistance of bay scallop against Listonella anguillarum....
