Evolutionary analysis of the short-type peptidoglycan-recognition protein gene (PGLYRP1) in primates

W. Liu, Yao, Y. F., Zhou, L., Ni, Q. Y., and Xu, H. L., Evolutionary analysis of the short-type peptidoglycan-recognition protein gene (PGLYRP1) in primates, vol. 12, pp. 453-462, 2013.

Short-type peptidoglycan (PGN)-recognition protein 1 (PGLYRP1), an innate immunity protein that directly breaks down the structure of microbial cell wall PGNs, plays an important role both in antibacterial defenses and several inflammatory diseases.
