Genome Mining and Structural Study of Cathelicidins Across Chiroptera Species. [PDF]
Biochem Res IntThe authors explored the genomic landscape of bat cathelicidins, critical proteins in the vertebrate innate immune system, across 41 bat species, which are notable for their high microbial tolerance. An array of bioinformatics tools, complemented by manual mining, were used to identify the curated cathelicidin sequences.
