Despite the evolutionary distance, Drosophila is great at discovering innate immune signaling regulators relevant to the treatment of psoriasis. An important study by @SilvermanNeal, plus innovative use of click chemistry to track peptides.
For all the innate immunity tweeps out there, I am very excited to share our newest story on the role of SLC46s in muropeptide sensing in mammals: This story was the labor of love for a very talented and fearless postdoc @RaviBha47100419. 1/17
