Serine protease SP105 activates prophenoloxidase in Asian corn borer melanization, and is regulated by serpin-3
Melanization reaction, resulting from the activation of prophenoloxidase, is a vital immune response in insects for encapsulating and killing the invasive organisms. Prophenoloxidase needs to be proteolytically activated by its upstream prophenoloxidase-activating protease (PAP) in melanization. Ide...
