Signatures of positive selection in Toll-like receptor (TLR) genes in mammals
BACKGROUND: Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are a major class of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) expressed in the cell surface or membrane compartments of immune and non-immune cells. TLRs are encoded by a multigene family and represent the first line of defense against pathogens by detecting foreig...
