Ammonium transporter expression in sperm of the disease vector Aedes aegypti mosquito influences male fertility

9 Nov 2020

Abstract excerpt

Significance Ammonium transporters (AMT) have been implicated in facilitating nitrogen assimilation in plants and bacteria and ammonia (NH 3 /NH 4 + ) transport for nitrogen regulation and excretion in animals. However, the involvement of AMT proteins in mediating reproductive processes remains unexplored. We report that an insect AMT, AeAmt1, is expressed in the flagellum of spermatozoa from the dengue vector...
