Cuticular Proteins of Hyalophora Cecropia: Characterization With Electrophoresis, Antibodies, and Lectins (Insect, Hydrophogicity, Metamorphosis, Glycoproteins, Avidin-Biotin)
The soluble cuticular proteins of defined anatomical regions from different metamorphic stages of the giant silkmoth, Hyalophora cecropia, were characterized by electrophoresis and by reactions with antibodies and lectins. As urea concentration in 2D gels was increased, some of the cuticular …

Reduced cuticular penetration as a contributor to insecticide resistance in the common bed bug, Cimex lectularius L.
… study, we investigated the mechanisms of reduced cuticular penetration type insecticide resistance in bed bugs. First, we determined and compared the lethal dosage (LD50) of a pyrethroid insecticide using topical and injection application. The resistant strain not only had significantly greater …

Biochemical studies of enzymes in insect cuticle hardening
… The newly formed cuticle, mainly composed of cuticular proteins, chitin, and sclerotizing reagents, needs to be hardened through the crosslinks between cuticular proteins and sclerotizing reagents. This dissertation concerns the biochemical activities of several pyridoxal 5-phosphate …

Molecular analysis of thecDNA and gene for a major protein from flexible cuticles of the giant silkmoth Hyalophora cecropia
… populations of epidermal cells that secrete the cuticular proteins during metamorphosis. An oligonucleotide probe, designed from N-terminal protein sequence, was used to screen a cDNA library made using mRNA of larval abdominal epidermal cells. A cDNA clone (cDNA1) was shown to encode HCCP12 by …
