Novel globular C1q domain-containing protein (PmC1qDC-1) participates in shell formation and responses to pathogen-associated molecular patterns stimulation in Pinctada fucata martensii
Abstract The C1q protein, which contains the globular C1q (gC1q) domain, is involved in the innate immune response, and is found abundantly in the shell, and it participates in the shell formation. In this study, a novel gC1q domain-containing gene was identified from Pinctada fucata martensii (P. f...
