Molecular cloning and characterization of the allatostatin receptor in the cockroach Diploptera punctata

Allatostatins (ASTs) are neuropeptides that inhibit the biosynthesis and release of juvenile hormone from the corpora allata (CA) of various insects including the cockroach Diploptera punctata. We hypothesized that a similar allatostatin receptor would exist in the cockroach D. punctata that may reg...
