Intracellular
|
CLas exposure altered the abundance of proteins involved in immunity and cellular and oxidative stress in a sex-dependent manner. Also, Clas impacted cuticular proteins and enzymes involved in chitin degradation, as well as energy metabolism and abundance of the endosymbiont 'Candidatus Profftella armatura' in both sexes similarly |
