Evolution of two distinct variable lymphocyte receptors in lampreys: VLRD and VLRE

Evolution of two distinct variable lymphocyte receptors in lampreys: VLRD and VLRE

Summary: Jawless vertebrates possess an alternative adaptive immune system in which antigens are recognized by variable lymphocyte receptors (VLRs) generated by combinatorial assembly of leucine-rich repeat (LRR) cassettes. Three types of receptors, VLRA, VLRB, and VLRC, have been previously identif...
