Exploring proteins in Anopheles gambiae male and female antennae through MALDI mass spectrometry profiling.

MALDI profiling and imaging mass spectrometry (IMS) are novel techniques for direct analysis of peptides and small proteins in biological tissues. In this work we applied them to the study of Anopheles gambiae antennae, with the aim of analysing expression of soluble proteins involved in olfaction p...
