Congratulations to Børre and Linn with their publication on A.salmon interferons

Highlights:

47 IFN-I genes were identified in the 2021 version of the Atlantic salmon genome.

The GH1 locus of Chr3 contains 9 IFNa genes, 5 IFNb genes, 6 IFNc genes, 11 IFNe genes and 1 IFNf gene.

The GH2 locus of Chr6 contains 1 IFNa gene, 12 IFNc genes and 1 IFNf gene.

IFNc and IFNf genes showed strong expression and IFNe weak expression in organs of Atlantic salmon in response to poly I:C.

Antiviral activity was demonstrated for IFNc, IFNe and IFNf genes.
