Bulet P, Hetru C, Dimarcq JL, Hoffmann D: Antimicrobial peptides in insects; structure and function. In fact, other studies speak against a functional redundancy, and report differential target-specific effects of multiple copy peptides in insects and molluscs (for example, [19,24-26]). The observed higher amino acid distances that reflect a considerable sequence variation for the spacers do not allow us to conclude that structural features of the spacers are unimportant for proper peptide processing and packaging into secretory vesicles. The maggots were raised in an environment simulating a wound that increased the production of the .. The Insects: Structure and Function By R. The peptide, lucifencin, that belongs to the insect antimicrobial peptides (AMP), defensin family, was reported to be secreted in the hemolymph, body fat and ES of the maggots. Relationship of the tentorium to grooves and pits on the head.
