Evolution of the chicken Toll-like receptor gene family: A story of gene gain and gene loss
BACKGROUND: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) perform a vital role in disease resistance through their recognition of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Recent advances in genomics allow comparison of TLR genes within and between many species. This study takes advantage of the recently sequenc...
