Separation, Characterization and Sexual Heterogeneity of Multiple Putative Odorant-binding Proteins in the Honeybee Apis mellifera L. (Hymenoptera: Apidea)

Abstract: According to precise molar mass determined by mass spectrometry and N-terminal sequence, some 25 odorant-binding-like proteins were characterized from the antennae and legs of worker and drone honeybees. Antennal specific proteins, composed of six different molecules, were classified into three subclasses according to N-terminal sequence homology. The major sexual difference was shown to lie in the relative abundance of these antennal specific proteins and in the occurrence of a drone-specific isoform. At leas… Show more

“…The comparison with the native protein indicates that the 25-residue N-terminal sequence is cleaved after translation. The molar average mass 13,180.8 Da, calculated for the mature protein and assuming the formation of three disulfide bridges, was in perfect agreement with the measured molar mass (13,180.2 Ϯ 1.6 Da) of the native protein (Danty et al, 1998). Southern blot hybridization on genomic DNA raised only one band, suggesting that ASP1a and ASP1b are encoded by a single identical gene (data not shown).…”

“…was deduced from the peptide PEV F DLVA selected in the ASP1 N-terminal sequence (Danty et al, 1998). It was used for rapid amplification of cDNA ends (R ACE) 3Ј-specific amplification, and the 3Ј primer was 5ЈGAGAGAAC TAGC TCGAGTT.…”
