Cell-autonomous innate immunity by proteasome-derived defence peptides - Nature
Proteasomal degradation of cellular proteins generate defence peptides constitutively and in response to bacterial infection. Such peptides might provide a source of natural antibiotics that...

A diagram of Toll and IMD signalling regulation across insect species, with annotations of insect orthologues for their regulation.
A comparison of protein structures for antimicrobial peptides of related gene families across insects, showing commonalities and unifying their naming conventions.
A summary of studies to date detailing the regulation of specific AMPs across insect species.
The mechanisms & regulation of insect #antimicrobialpeptides & #HDPs is of wide interest. We now appreciate their function in vivo is much more complex than what's described in vitro.
Our primer on insect AMP regulation, evolution & function.
