Reinvestigation of Purification of Phenoloxidase from Larvae of Housefly
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1981 Phenoloxidase (Diphenoloxidase EC 1.10.3.1) was purified from an aqueous extract of the larvae of the housefly Musca domestica vicina Maquart by a procedure involving affinity chromatography on a Sepharose 4B derivative of p-aminobenzoic acid and ethylene diamine, Sepharose 4B and Sephadex G-200 gel filtrations.

Subunit structure of phenoloxidase purified from the larvae of housefly.
Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1980 The subunit structure of phenoloxidase from the larvae of housefly, Musca domestica vicina Maquart, was investigated by urea treatment, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electron microscopy. Phenoloxidase was dissociated into a single type of subunit (MW 6.5 × 104) by 5 m urea treatment.
