IbinA and IbinB regulate the Toll pathway-mediated immune response in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i>
2025-04-16
Abstract excerpt
To combat infection, an immune system needs to be promptly activated but tightly controlled to avoid destructive effects on host tissues. IbinA and IbinB are related short peptides with robust expression upon microbial challenge in Drosophila melanogaster . Here, we show that Ibin genes are ubiquitously present in flies of the Drosophila subgenus Sophophora , where they replace a different but probably related...
