Genetic and biochemical analysis of human Peptidoglycan Recognition Protein-S

Peptidoglycan Recognition Proteins (PGRPs) are a family of conserved proteins with antimicrobial activity in humans. PGRP-S is a 20kDA monomer with a poorly elucidated bactericidal mechanism. The aim of this project was to examine the genetic variation of the PGRP-S gene in the Sub-Saharan Africa...
