CfPGRP-S1 is a short form of a peptidoglycan recognition protein identified as a cDNA from the Zhikong scallop Chlamys farreri (Su et al, 2007). The polypeptide of 252 amino acids is expressed constitutively but also upregulated in response to bacterial infections and is thought to be involved in the immune response against bacterial infection.
