Kinetic and Molecular Differences in the Amplified and Non-amplified Esterases from Insecticide-resistant and Susceptible Culex quinquefasciatus Mosquitoes
1 Dec 1995
Abstract excerpt
Two non-amplified esterases were purified from the insecticide-susceptible Pel SS strain of Culex quinquefasciatus. These were the two major esterase activity peaks in this strain. The two corresponding amplified carboxylesterases, Est alpha 2 and Est beta 2, involved in organophosphate sequestration were purified from two resistant C. quinquefasciatus strains. The Pel SS esterases were significantly less...
