proteins promoting adhesion and thrombus formation at injured sites, Fasci clin like proteins, Toll InterLeukin Receptor, Speract Tubacin CAS scavenger receptor, receptor binding alpha macroglobulins, mannose 6 phosphate receptor and TNF receptors. Transcripts involved in signalling and regulative networks Not restricted to the innate immunity, cell signalling against fungal, bacterial and viral antigens occurs in insects through the Toll, Imd, Jak STAT and P13K Akt TOR pathways. The first two are similar to the verte brate TLR IL and TNF signalling pathways, and interact with distinct NFkB factors to induce the expression of AMP and other molecules, whereas the inhibition of the nutrient signalling P13K Akt TOR can restrict viral replication by cell autophagy and reallocation of the resources from growth to immune defences.
Related to Toll IL and TNF signalling are MGCs putatively identifying the LPS induced TNF alpha factor or LITAF, TNF receptor associated factor TRAF, the adapter molecule MyD88, Pellino which is known to associate with the kinase domain of the Pelle Ser Thr kinase, NF kB inhibitor Cactus, a NFkB inhibitor interacting Ras like pro tein and the transcription factor NFkB Rel Dorsal. Definitely, many MGCs include the ankyrin repeat typical of regulatory proteins but insufficient in itself to provide function recognition. Conversely, putative mussel kinases and phosphatases support the existence of the mitogen activated protein kinase signalling, whereas the EF hand signa ture and putative small G proteins denote calcium regulated pathways.
Putative zinc finger proteins, transcription factors bZIP like, LIM type, Jun like, p53 RUNT type and repres sors of transcription reinforce the idea of multiple signalling pathways in mussels. Interactions between protein kinase C, FAK and Src protein tyrosine kinases occur during the integrin mediated spreading of Lymnaea stagnalis haemocytes and robust intracellular signalling is essential to cytoskeleton remodelling, cell adhesion and migration of PAMP activated haemocytes. Although more than 60 MGCs contain a DNA binding domain and some of them include the SH2 domain, there is no proof in Mytibase of a mussel JAK STAT pathway, the main signalling system for a wide array of mammalian cytokines and growth factors.
Nevertheless, the remarkable presence of a mussel Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor, transcripts recalling Platelet Derived Growth Factor, interferon induced proteins, an interleukin enhancer binding factor, an interleukin 1 receptor associated kinase and G protein coupled chemokine like receptors, Drug_discovery altogether evoke a reg ulatory humoral network able to reinforce mussel immu nity. Unquestionably, Mytibase does not contain an IL17 homologue, found instead expressed in oyster hemocytes following bacterial stimulation. Finally, MGCs denoting histone proteins, deacetylase and acetyltransferase enzymes confirm the importance of chromatin remodelling and histone modi Paclitaxel IC50 fications in the regulated
