Phylogenetic analysis of the caspase family in bivalves: implications for programmed cell death, immune response and development
2020-11-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Apoptosis is an important process for an organism’s innate immune system to respond to pathogens, while also allowing for cell differentiation and other essential life functions. Caspases are one of the key protease enzymes involved in the apoptotic process, however there is currently a very limited understanding of bivalve caspase diversity and functions. <h4>Results: </h4>: In this work, we...
