LAP3 and myiasis: Specifically, when analyzing the expression profiles of genes tied to parasitism, a significant increase in gene expression was observed during the parasitic larval stage, including 88 peptidase (47 of which were serine peptidase), 110 cuticle protein, 21 hsp, and 2 AMPs genes, which may be targeted to engineer vaccines or pharmaceuticals to control W. magnifica or myiasis.
