Genome-wide identification and comparative analysis of Leucine-Rich Repeat Containing (LRRC) gene and their expression responses to Vibrio alginolyticus infection in the Manila clam (Ruditapes philippinarum).

Leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domains are important components of many pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). Previous studies have demonstrated that LRR domain-containing immune receptors, such as nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) and Toll-like receptors (TLRs), play important roles in innate...
