Molecular Identification of Two Prophenoloxidase-Activating Proteases From the Hemocytes of Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) and Their Transcript Abundance Changes in Response to Microbial Challenges

The phenoloxidase (PO) activation system plays an important role in insect innate immunity, particularly in wound healing and pathogen defense. A key member of this system is prophenoloxidase-activating protease (PAP), which is the direct activator of prophenoloxidase (proPO). Despite their importan...
