Characterization of Matrix Metalloprotease-9 Gene from Nile tilapia (<i>Oreochromis niloticus</i>) and Its High-Level Expression Induced by the <i>Streptococcus agalactiae</i> Challenge

Characterization of Matrix Metalloprotease-9 Gene from Nile tilapia (<i>Oreochromis niloticus</i>) and Its High-Level Expression Induced by the <i>Streptococcus agalactiae</i> Challenge

The bacterial diseases of tilapia caused by <i>Streptococcus agalactiae</i> have resulted in the high mortality and huge economic loss in the tilapia industry. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) may play an important role in fighting infection. However, the role of MMP-9 in Nile tilapia...
