Evidence of positive selection at codon sites localized in extracellular domains of mammalian CC motif chemokine receptor proteins

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>CC chemokine receptor proteins (CCR1 through CCR10) are seven-transmembrane G-protein coupled receptors whose signaling pathways are known for their important roles coordinating immune system responses through targeted trafficking of...
