Chemosensory Proteins (CSPs) in the Cotton Bollworm Helicoverpa armigera [PDF]
Insects, 2021 Chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are a family of small, soluble proteins that play a crucial role in transporting odorant and pheromone molecules in the insect chemosensory system.

Renaming the ‘OS-D/CSP’ Family (Part 1): ‘4-Cysteine Soluble Proteins’ (4CSPs)—Molecular Nomenclature, Structure, Expression, Evolution, Tissue-Distribution, and Pleiotropy [PDF]
InsectsChemosensory proteins (CSPs) are found in the olfactory sensory organs (antennae and maxillary palps) and/or gustatory sensory organs (labellum and legs) and have long been accepted to function through the binding of odorants.
