Abstract excerpt
Chicken toll-like receptor 7 (chTLR7) is a viral sensing pattern recognition receptor and detects ssRNA. The ligand binding site comprises leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) located in the ectodomain of chTLR7. Hence, any polymorphism in the binding site would modify its functional interaction with the ligand, resulting in varied strength of immune response. This study first aimed to compare the single nucleotide...
