Structure and evolutionary history of a large family of NLR proteins in the zebrafish

Structure and evolutionary history of a large family of NLR proteins in the zebrafish

Multicellular eukaryotes have evolved a range of mechanisms for immune recognition. A widespread family involved in innate immunity are the NACHT-domain and leucine-rich-repeat-containing (NLR) proteins. Mammals have small numbers of NLR proteins, whereas in some species, mostly those without adapti...
