Spodoptera frugiperda x-tox protein, an immune related defensin rosary, has lost the function of ancestral defensins

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Ancestral Defensins and collaborators from the France, Université, CNRS, Institut des sciences de l'évolution UMR5554, CC63, France have published the research work: Spodoptera frugiperda X-Tox Protein, an Immune Related Defensin Rosary, Has Lost the Function of Ancestral Defensins, in the Journal: (JOURNAL) of August/27,/2009
• how: These results showed that Spod-11-tox expression is independent of hemocyte phagocytosis and that the protein does not colocalize with phagocytosed microorganisms suggesting that the protein is not involved in intracellular pathogen killing.
• future: To gain more insight into the immune function . . .
