Two LRR-Only Proteins Involved in Antibacterial Defense and Prophenoloxidase System of Swimming Crab Portunus trituberculatus

The leucine-rich repeat (LRR) motif is evolutionarily conserved in many pattern recognition receptors. Compared to the reported LRR proteins with multiple functional domains, the role of LRR-only proteins merely containing LRR motifs remain largely unexplored. In this study, two LRR-only proteins, P...
