A Polymorphic (CT)n-SSR Influences the Activity of the Litopenaeus vannamei IRF Gene Implicated in Viral Resistance
Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) of short nucleotide motifs occur very frequently in the 5′ untranslated coding region (5′-UTR) of genes and have been implicated in the regulation of gene expression. In this study, we identified an SSR with a variable number of CT repeats in the 5′-UTR of the Litopena...
