Major histocompatibility complex class IIA and IIB genes of loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus): Molecular cloning and expression analysis in response to bacterial and parasitic challenge
2019-02-01
Abstract excerpt
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a crucial component of the immune response in vertebrates including teleost fish, which is responsible for the presentation of foreign antigens. In this study, we firstly cloned and identified the gene sequences of MHC IIA and MHC IIB from dojo loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus). The full-length cDNA of Ma-MHC IIA and Ma-MHC IIB contained an open reading frame (ORF) of...
