Abstract
⺠EGFR receptor signaling in insects is regulated, to a large extent, by processing of the ligands. ⺠Variations in intracellular localization of the proteases cleaving the ligands were identified. ⺠These variations impinge on the amount of secreted ligand, as well as on the polarity of secretion. ⺠The processing cassette was examined in different insect species. ⺠It traces the elaboration of this pathway, and diversification of its regulation.
