Participation of the Serine Protease Jonah66Ci in the Drosophila Antinematode Immune Response [Host Response and Inflammation]

In conclusion, we report that Jonah66Ci participates in maintaining homeostasis of certain physiological processes in Drosophila larvae in the context of Steinernema nematode infection. Similar findings will take us a step further toward understanding the molecular and physiological mechanisms that take place during parasitic nematode infection in insects.
