Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information Toll and Imd immune signals induced by bacterial challenge with both Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis) and negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria to the larvae are linked to the activation of PLA2 Tribolium castaneum

Localization

Localization Comment Organism GeneOntology No. Textmining
cytoplasm hemocytes from larvae treated with dsRNAs of the Toll and Imd genes do not show translocation of their PLA2s near to cell membrane, at which the PLA2s appear to be evenly spread in the cytoplasm Tribolium castaneum 5737
-
membrane upon bacterial challenge, hemocytes from control larvae show intracellular translocation of their PLA2s near to cell membrane Tribolium castaneum 16020

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Tribolium castaneum activation of PLA2 is inhibited by dsRNAs specific to different Toll and Imd genes down
Tribolium castaneum recognition of bacterial challenge initiates Toll and Imd pathways, which subsequently induces the expression of immune-associated PLA2s as well as gene expression of various AMPs up
