Generation of Nano-Antibodies Targeting the SNMP1 Membrane Receptor of <i>Spodoptera littoralis</i> Using Extracellular Vesicles. [PDF]
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) represent an excellent platform for the expression of recombinant membrane proteins and their use in llama immunization to generate nano‐antibodies (Nabs). In this study, we present a novel strategy, termed the multi‐layer approach, for EV immobilization in biopanning and ELISA applications.

Spodoptera littoralis-Induced Lectin Expression in Tobacco [PDF]
The induced defense response in plants towards herbivores is mainly regulated by jasmonates and leads to the accumulation of so-called jasmonate-induced proteins. Recently, a jasmonate (JA) inducible lectin called Nicotiana tabacum agglutinin or NICTABA was discovered in tobacco (N. tabacum cv Samsun) leaves.
