Cloning and characterisation of genes encoding molecular recognition proteins from insects

Olfaction is one of the most important senses by which insects obtain information about their environment. In the early stages of olfactory perception in insects, odour molecules are carried across the sensillum lymph by small soluble Odorant Binding Proteins (OBPs). This is followed by activation o...
