Characterization of the highly variable immune response gene family, He185/333, in the sea urchin, Heliocidaris erythrogramma.

Characterization of the highly variable immune response gene family, He185/333, in the sea urchin, Heliocidaris erythrogramma.

This study characterizes the highly variable He185/333 genes, transcripts and proteins in coelomocytes of the sea urchin, Heliocidaris erythrogramma. Originally discovered in the purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, the products of this gene family participate in the anti-pathogen defen...
