Accurate characterization of the IFITM locus using MiSeq and PacBio sequencing shows genetic variation in Galliformes
BACKGROUND: Interferon inducible transmembrane (IFITM) proteins are effectors of the immune system widely characterized for their role in restricting infection by diverse enveloped and non-enveloped viruses. The chicken IFITM (chIFITM) genes are clustered on chromosome 5 and to date four genes have...
