Hormone receptor 3 (HR3), an early-late gene of the 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) signaling pathway, plays a critical role in insect metamorphosis and development. In this study, we identified characterized HR3 (LsHR3) from cigarette beetle, Lasioderma serricorne. The open reading frame LsHR3 is 1581 bp encoding 527 amino acid protein that contains conserved DNA binding domain ligand domain. was mai...
