Properties and sequence of a female-specific, juvenile hormone-induced protein from locust hemolymph.
In the fat body of Locusta migratoria, an RNA transcript of about 800 nucleotides has been detected that is specific to the adult female and dependent on induction by juvenile hormone (JH) or an analog. The corresponding cDNA has been cloned (lambda 21) and a 718-base pair sequence determined. It encodes a 196-amino acid polypeptide, including a signal peptide. An NH2-terminal sequence has 24 o...
متن کاملInteraction of locust apolipophorin III with lipoproteins and phospholipid vesicles: effect of glycosylation.
Apolipophorin III (apoLp-III) from Locusta migratoria is an exchangeable apolipoprotein that binds reversibly to lipoprotein surfaces. The native protein is glycosylated at Asn-18 and Asn-85. Variable attachment of five distinct oligosaccharide moieties at the two glycosylation sites results in molecular weight heterogeneity, as seen by mass spectrometry. The main mass peak of 20,488 Da decreas...
متن کاملAcid phosphatases in the haemolymph of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria, infected with the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae.
A comparison has been made between the effects of wounding, chemical stimulation of the immune system and fungal infection on acid phosphatase (AcP) activity in the haemolymph of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria. Untreated control locusts had constitutive levels of AcP. As a lysosomal enzyme, AcP may have a role in autophagy and cell turn over as well as defence. Injection of saline and...
متن کاملOdorant-induced oscillations in the mushroom bodies of the locust.
Kenyon cells are the intrinsic interneurons of the mushroom bodies in the insect brain, a center for olfactory and multimodal processing and associative learning. These neurons are small (3-8 microns soma diameter) and numerous (340,000 and 400,000 in the bee and cockroach brains, respectively). In Drosophila, Kenyon cells are the dominant site of expression of the dunce, DC0, and rutabaga gene...
