  1. Two Odorant-Binding Protein Genes in Mosquitoes: Comparative Genomics, Expression, and Function

    Sengul, Meryem SenayVirginia Tech2008

    Insect Odorant-Binding Proteins (OBPs) are small, water-soluble molecules that solubilize hydrophobic odorant molecules in the sensillum lymph and transport them to their cognate receptors in the olfactory receptor neurons. With the availability of the genome sequence of the African malaria …

  3. Mechanisms of Volatile Odorant Detection and Corresponding Behavioral Effects in Drosophila

    Ronderos, David Samuel2011

    … insect repellents, and food source-derived odorants by primary sensory neurons in Drosophila and the corresponding behaviors generated by these stimuli. To date, the only known volatile pheromone in Drosophila is the male-specific hydrocarbon 11-cis-vaccenyl acetate (cVA). I took a genetic …

  4. Calliphorid Hygrosensation Perception and the Effect of Humidity on Oviposition Behavior

    Moctar, Khadija2025

    … in P. regina, we analyzed the expression of odorant-binding protein 59a and ionotropic receptor 40a, genes associated with hygrosensation in Drosophila. Ir40a expression differed significantly by location (p = 0.003) and sex (p = 0.0007), with higher levels in males and in Arizona flies, but …

  5. Methoxypyrazine removal in grape juice: Development of a removal system using odorant and pheromone binding proteins coupled with bentonite fining

    Humes, Eric FabianBrock University2013

    … of this project was to use previously identified proteins with an ability to bind to methoxypyrazines at low pH, and subsequently develop a binding assay to test the ability of these proteins to bind to and remove methoxypyrazines from grape juice. The piglet odorant binding protein (plOBP) and …

  6. Chemosensory gene expression analysis in the argentine ant, linepithema humile

    Laird, Joseph G.University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign2010

    … of a subset of chemosensory genes, including odorant receptors (Ors) and odorant binding proteins (OBPs), in the invasive Argentine ant, Linepithema humile. Fragments of two Ors were identified from a whole ant EST project, which suggested their potential importance in Argentine ant ecology. …

  7. Nurture is Nature: The Molecular Basis of Caregiver Genotype Effects on Larval Growth and Caste Development in the Clonal Raider Ant

    Piekarski, Patrick Konrad2026

    … I also discovered that multiple chemosensory protein (CSP) and odorant-binding protein (OBP) genes, canonically associated with olfaction, are differentially expressed in larvae due to caregiver genotype, and their expression in larvae was localized to cells in the fat body that coexpress …
