Aphid Odorant-Binding Protein 9 Is Narrowly Tuned to Linear Alcohols and Aldehydes of Sixteen Carbon Atoms

open access: yesInsects, 2021
Aphid odorant-binding protein 9 is almost exclusively expressed in antennae and is well conserved between different aphid species. In order to investigate its function, we have expressed this protein and measured ligand-binding affinities to a number of ...

Biosensors

open access: yes, 2021
A biosensor is a device that measures biological or chemical reactions by converting them into electrical signals. Biosensors are made up of a biological component, such as an enzyme, antibody, or cell, and a transducer that converts the biological response into an electrical signal. The signal can be electrical, optical, or thermal.
