Changes in lipophorins are related to the activation of phenoloxidase in the haemolymph of Locusta migratoria in response to injection of immunogens [PDF]
In Locusta migratoria, activation of phenoloxidase in the haemolymph in response to injection of laminarin is age-dependent: being absent in fifth instar nymphs and newly emerged adults, and only becoming evident four days after the final moult.

Background For holometabolous insects there has been an explosion of proteomic and peptidomic information thanks to large genome sequencing projects. Heterometabolous insects, although comprising many important species, have been far less studied.

Evidence for widespread genomic methylation in the migratory locust, Locusta migratoria (Orthoptera: Acrididae). [PDF]
The importance of DNA methylation in mammalian and plant systems is well established. In recent years there has been renewed interest in DNA methylation in insects. Accumulating evidence, both from mammals and insects, points towards an emerging role for

Isolation of angiotensin converting enzyme from testes of Locusta migratoria (Orthoptera)
By means of a tracer assay using a labeled synthetic angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) substrate hippurylglycylglycine, we have detected high ACE activity in the testes of the African migratory locust, Locusta migratoria.

Fragments of Locusta migratoria apoLp-III provide insight into lipid binding
Apolipophorin III (apoLp-III) from Locusta migratoria is an exchangeable apolipoprotein with a critical role in lipid transport in insects. The protein is composed of a bundle of five amphipathic α-helices which undergo a large conformational change upon
