A proteomic investigation of soluble olfactory proteins in Anopheles gambiae.

A proteomic investigation of soluble olfactory proteins in Anopheles gambiae.

Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) and chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are small soluble polypeptides that bind semiochemicals in the lymph of insect chemosensilla. In the genome of Anopheles gambiae, 66 genes encode OBPs and 8 encode CSPs. Here we monitored their expression through classical proteomics (...
