文摘
- •
cDNA cloning confirms two tsetse fly akhr splice variants and two AKH encoding genes.
- •
Both Glomo-AKHRs are dose-dependently activated by two Glomo-AKH peptides in vitro.
- •
Transcript profiles suggest conserved functions of AKH signaling in tsetse energy metabolism.
- •
Structure–activity studies reveal pharmacological features of Glomo-AKH neuropeptides.
