Expression of acyl-CoA-binding protein 5 from Rhodnius prolixus and its inhibition by RNA interference.

The acyl-CoA-binding proteins (ACBP) act by regulating the availability of acyl-CoA in the cytoplasm and must have essential functions in lipid metabolism. The genome of the kissing-bug Rhodnius prolixus encodes five proteins of this family, but little is known about them. In this study we investiga...
