author keywords: CULEX-QUINQUEFASCIATUS; JH ESTERASE; JH EPOXIDE HYDROLASE
MeSH headings : Animals; Carboxylic Ester Hydrolases / antagonists & inhibitors; Carboxylic Ester Hydrolases / metabolism; Culex / growth & development; Culex / metabolism; Epoxide Hydrolases / metabolism; Female; Male; Sesquiterpenes / metabolism; Substrate Specificity
topics (OpenAlex): Mosquito-borne diseases and control; Viral Infections and Vectors; Malaria Research and Control
TL;DR: In vitro whole animal juvenile hormone (JH) III epoxide hydrolase activity ranged from two to four times that of the JH esterase activity in eggs, fourth instars, pupae, and male and female adults of the southern house mosquito, Culex quinquefasciatus Say, suggesting a possible functional role for JH metabolism in mosquito reproduction.
