Biochemical and molecular characterization of putative immunoprotective molecules of the soft tick, Ornithodoros savignyi Audouin (1827)
Most studies on innate immunity in ticks have focused on the antimicrobial peptides from hemolymph, such as defensins and lysozyme, while less is known about bacterial recognition molecules, or antimicrobial mechanisms in other tissues. The current study attempted to identify novel antimicrobial mec...
