Genomic complexity of the variable region-containing chitin-binding proteins in amphioxus
BACKGROUND: The variable region-containing chitin-binding proteins (VCBPs) are found in protochordates and consist of two tandem immunoglobulin variable (V)-type domains and a chitin-binding domain. We previously have shown that these polymorphic genes, which primarily are expressed in the gut, exhi...
