Abstract excerpt
The IMD pathway is one of the major regulators of the innate immune response in Drosophila. Although extensive analysis of the IMD pathway has been carried out, precise mechanisms for how each target gene of the pathway is down-regulated remain to be clarified. Here, we carried out genetic screening and found that fat facets (faf), which encodes a deubiquitinating enzyme, inhibited the expression of the target...
