Molecular characterization of MRJP3, highly polymorphic protein of honeybee (Apis mellifera) royal jelly.

Insect biochemistry and molecular biology - 1 May 1999

Abstract excerpt

Major proteins of honey bee (Apis mellifera) royal jelly are members of the MRJP protein family. One MRJP protein termed MRJP3 exhibits a size polymorphism as detected by SDS-PAGE. In this report we show that polymorphism of the MRJP3 protein is a consequence of the polymorphism of a region with a variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) located at the C-terminal part of the MRJP3 coding region. We present the...
