In insects, specialized feeding on the phloem sap (containing mainly the sugar sucrose) has
evolved only in some hemipteran lineages. This feeding behavior requires an ability to …

Olfaction is a key insect adaptation to a wide range of habitats. In the last thirty years, the
detection of octenol by blood-feeding insects has been primarily understood in the context of …

Controlling Ae. aegypti populations and the prevention of mosquito bites includes the
development of monitoring, repelling and attract-and-kill strategies that are based on …

High-pressure liquid chromatography was used to separate chlorophyll derivatives in acetone
extracts from senescing Citrus fruit peel, autumnal Melia azedarach L. leaves, and dark-…

Background Mosquitoes are responsible for disease transmission worldwide. They possess
the ability to discriminate between different ecological resources, including nectar sources, …

The conservation of the mosquito indolergic receptors across the Culicinae and Anophelinae
mosquito lineages, which spans 200 million years of evolution, is a testament to the central …

A detailed understanding of the developmental substates of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs)
is needed to optimize their use in cell therapy and for modeling early development. …

A 71-kDa protein (P71) with properties similar to those of the Escherichia coli heat shock
protein DnaK has been found in extracts of HeLa cells. P71 was copurified by ATP-agarose …

Several members of the 70 kDa heat shock protein group are known to be phosphorylated
in vivo and have recently been found to undergo a Ca (2+)-stimulated autophosphorylation. …

The heat-shock response of Euglena gracilis was studied by pulse-labeling cells with [35S]sulfate
at both the normal growth temperature (21 degrees C) and an elevated temperature (…
