Comparative Analysis of the <i>pIgR</i> Gene from the Antarctic Teleost <i>Trematomus bernacchii</i> Reveals Distinctive Features of Cold-Adapted Notothenioidei

Comparative Analysis of the <i>pIgR</i> Gene from the Antarctic Teleost <i>Trematomus bernacchii</i> Reveals Distinctive Features of Cold-Adapted Notothenioidei

The IgM and IgT classes were previously identified and characterized in the Antarctic teleost <i>Trematomus bernacchii</i>, a species belonging to the Perciform suborder Notothenoidei. Herein, we characterized the gene encoding the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) in the same spe...
