TY - GEN T1 - Identification of four Drosophila Toll-related proteins as ligands for the PTP69D receptor tyrosine phosphatase AU - Bali, Namrata AU - Lee, Hyung-Kook AU - Zinn, Kai DO - 10.17912/micropub.biology.000159 UR - http://beta.micropublication.org/journals/biology/micropub-biology-000159/ AB - The nine Toll-related receptors in Drosophila (Toll-1 – Toll-9) (Valanne et al. 2011) mediate a range of functions, ranging from embryonic development and immunity (Valanne et al. 2011) to larval locomotion, motor axon targeting and neuronal survival (McIlroy et al. 2013). Some members of the Toll family in Drosophila have been shown to bind to members of the Spaetzle family (Valanne et al. 2011; McIlroy et al. 2013; Ballard et al. 2014). Toll-6 and Toll-7 bind to Spz2 and Spz5 in a promiscuous manner (McIlroy et al. 2013). Toll-8 (also known as Tollo) has been shown to bind to Spz3 (Ballard et al. 2014).
