Tetraspanins belong to the transmembrane 4 superfamily (TM4SF), which span the cell
membrane 4 times and act as bridges or connectors. Increasing evidences have shown that …

Three members of the tetraspanin/TM4SF superfamily were cloned from Chinese shrimp,
Fenneropenaeus chinensis. The deduced amino acid sequences of the three proteins have …

The tetraspanins, representing a conserved superfamily of four-span membrane proteins,
are highly involved in viral and bacterial infections. Thus far, the function of the tetraspanins …

Our previous study demonstrated that an integrin β subunit of Chinese shrimp
(Fenneropenaeus chinensis)(FcβInt) plays an important role in white spot syndrome virus …

Tetraspanins belong to the transmembrane 4 superfamily (TM4SF), and play crucial roles in
immune responses. In the present study, a novel tetraspanin gene (designated MmTSPAN) …

Our previous study has demonstrated that an integrin β subunit of Chinese shrimp
(Fenneropenaeus chinensis)(FcβInt) involved in WSSV infection. In order to further elucidate …

Tetraspanins are a family of membrane proteins, which play important roles in many aspects
of cell biology and physiology via binding other tetraspanins or proteins. In this study, we …

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is extremely pathogenic and causes huge economic
losses in the shrimp farming industry. Neutralizing antibodies against WSSV is expected to …

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is one of the most devastating pathogens in penaeid
shrimp and can cause massive damage in shrimp aquaculture industries. Previously, the …

Tetraspanins are a family of membrane-organizing proteins, characterized by the presence
of four highly conserved transmembrane regions that mediate diverse physiological …
