Abstract excerpt
Two point mutations in homology domain II of the housefly Vsscl voltage-sensitive sodium channel subunit, M918T and L1014F are associated with resistance to pyrethroid insecticides and reduce the pyrethroid sensitivity of Vsscl sodium channels expressed in Xenopus laevis oocytes. To assess the impact of these residues as determinants of pyrethroid sensitivity in another sequence context, we mutated the...
