    A novel protein produced by the vitellogenic fat body and accumulated in mosquito oocytes

    The fat body of vitellogenic mosquitoes was found to synthesize and secrete another protein in addition to vitellogenin, that accumulated in develo** oocytes. In the tissues, this protein has Mr = 53000 on SDS-...

    Extensive Sequence Conservation Among Insect, Nematode, and Vertebrate Vitellogenins Reveals Ancient Common Ancestry

    The eggs of most oviparous animals are provisioned with a class of protein called vitellogenin (Vg) which is stored as the major component of yolk. Until recently, deduced amino acid sequences were available ...

    Ligand-binding domains in vitellogenin receptors and other LDL-receptor family members share a common ancestral ordering of cysteine-rich repeats

    Insect vitellogenin and yolk protein receptors (VgR/YPR) are newly discovered members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family, which is characterized by a highly conserved arrangement of repetiti...
