A new paper from Mike Kanost's lab in Insect Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, "Proteomic analysis of pharate pupal molting fluid from the to***co hornworm, Manduca sexta"
Proteomic analysis of pharate pupal molting fluid from the to***co hornworm, Manduca sexta - PubMed The insect cuticle is a key component of their success, being important for protection, communication, locomotion, and support. Conversely, as an exoskeleton, it also limits the size of the insect and must be periodically molted and a new one synthesized, to permit growth. To achieve this, the insec...
