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.

Genotyping and Bio-Sensing Chemosensory Proteins in Insects [PDF]
Sensors, 2017 Genotyping is the process of determining differences in the genetic make-up of an individual and comparing it to that of another individual. Focus on the family of chemosensory proteins (CSPs) in insects reveals differences at the genomic level across various strains and biotypes, but none at the level of individuals, which could be extremely useful in

Conserved chemosensory proteins in the proboscis and eyes of Lepidoptera [PDF]
International Journal of Biological Sciences, 2016 Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) and chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are endowed with several different functions besides being carriers for pheromones and odorants. Based on a previous report of a CSP acting as surfactant in the proboscis of the moth Helicoverpa armigera, we revealed the presence of orthologue proteins in two other moths Plutella ...

Identification of odorant binding proteins and chemosensory proteins in Microplitis mediator as well as functional characterization of chemosensory protein 3 [PDF]
PLOS ONE, 2017 Odorant binding proteins (OBPs) and chemosensory proteins (CSPs) play important roles in transporting semiochemicals through the sensillar lymph to olfactory receptors in insect antennae. In the present study, twenty OBPs and three CSPs were identified from the antennal transcriptome of Microplitis mediator.

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.
