Characterization of the toll‐like receptor 13 homologs in American bullfrogs, Lithobates catesbeianus, and their involvement in antimicrobial immunity

Abstract Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are an important family of pattern‐recognition receptors that recognize a series of pathogen‐associated molecular patterns to trigger the host immune response. In the present study, we identified three TLR13 genes (i.e., LcLTR13a, LcTLR13b, and LcTLR13c) in Americ...
