SEQUENCE DIVERSITY, LOCUS STRUCTURE, AND EVOLUTIONARY HISTORY OF THE SPTRANSFORMER GENES IN THE SEA URCHIN GENOME

Sequence Diversity, Locus Structure, and Evolutionary History of the SpTransformer Genes in the Sea Urchin Genome

The generation of large immune gene families is often driven by evolutionary pressure exerted on host genomes by their pathogens, which has been described as the immunological arms race.The SpTransformer (SpTrf) gene family from the California purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, is upregulated upon immune challenge and encodes the SpT
