Enhanced behavioral immune defenses in a C. elegans C-type lectin-like domain gene mutant.

Developmental and comparative immunology - 1 Sept 2017

Pees Barbara, Kloock Anke, Nakad Rania, Barbosa Camilo, Dierking Katja

Abstract excerpt

C-type lectin-like domain (CTLD) proteins occupy crucial functions in the immune system of vertebrates, but their role in invertebrate immunity is much less understood. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans possesses a highly diverse CTLD protein encoding (clec) gene repertoire. A role of C. elegans clec genes in pathogen defense is always assumed, yet experimental evidence for clec immune function is rare. To...
