Molecular evolution of the three short PGRPs of the malaria vectors <it>An</it>opheles <it>gambiae </it>and <it>Anopheles arabiensis </it>in East Africa
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Immune responses to parasites, which start with pathogen recognition, play a decisive role in the control of the infection in mosquitoes. Peptidoglycan recognition proteins (PGRPs) are an important family of pattern recognition recep...
