The Black cells phenotype is caused by a point mutation in the Drosophila pro-phenoloxidase 1 gene that triggers melanization and hematopoietic defects
Bruno Lemaitre, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Olivier Binggeli, Lise Bertin
Melanization contributes to arthropod-specific innate immunity through deposition of melanin at wound sites or around parasites, with concomitant release of microbicidal reactive oxygen species. Melanization requires sequential activation of proteolytic en ...
Elsevier2015The Nimrod transmembrane receptor Eater is required for hemocyte attachment to the sessile compartment in Drosophila melanogaster
Bruno Lemaitre, Olivier Burri, Olivier Binggeli, Andrew Jonathan Bretscher
Eater is an EGF-like repeat transmembrane receptor of the Nimrod family and is expressed in Drosophila hemocytes. Eater was initially identified for its role in phagocytosis of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. We have deleted eater and show t ...
Company Of Biologists Ltd2015Methods to study Drosophila immunity
Bruno Lemaitre, Olivier Binggeli, Andrew Jonathan Bretscher
Innate immune mechanisms are well conserved throughout evolution, and many theoretical concepts, molecular pathways and gene networks are applicable to invertebrate model organisms as much as vertebrate ones. Drosophila immunity research benefits from an e ...
