A β-1,3-Glucan-Binding Protein From Manduca sexta
2001Insects have pattern recognition molecules [1] which can recognize nonself molecules such as β-1,3-glucan, lipopolysaccharide, and peptidoglycan on the surface of invading pathogens. Upon binding to the foreign invaders, pattern recognition proteins further trigger defense pathways such as the prophenoloxidase pathway in insects.

Comparative properties of tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, carbonic anhydrases
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1981Comparative properties of midgut, fat body and integumentary carbonic anhydrases (CAs) were measured as functions of CA-catalyzed CO2 hydration or p-nitrophenylacetate (pNPA) hydrolysis in feeding larvae and pharate pupae. Alkali metal cations fully reverse the halide anion inhibition of CA catalyzed CO2 hydration during the larval but not the pharate

Identification of parasite-responsive cysteine proteases inManduca sexta
Biological Chemistry, 2009AbstractParasites have evolved different virulence strategies to manipulate host physiological functions. The parasitoid waspCotesia congregatainduces developmental arrest and immune suppression of its Lepidopteran hostManduca sexta. In this interaction, a symbiotic virus (C.

Mandibular premotor interneurons of larval Manduca sexta
Journal of Comparative Physiology A, 1994Simultaneous intracellular recordings were made from interneurons and from closer or opener mandibular motor neurons in the isolated suboesophageal ganglion of the larva of Manduca sexta. This article describes various morphologically and physiologically distinguishable premotor spiking interneurons which make direct excitatory connections with the ...
