Characterization of a gene family encoding SEA (sea-urchin sperm protein, enterokinase and agrin)-domain proteins with lectin-like and heme-binding properties from Schistosoma japonicum.
BACKGROUND: We previously identified a novel gene family dispersed in the genome of Schistosoma japonicum by retrotransposon-mediated gene duplication mechanism. Although many transcripts were identified, no homolog was readily identifiable from sequence information. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS:...
