Characterization of Localization, Ligand Binding, and pH-Dependent Conformational Changes of Two Chemosensory Proteins Expressed in the Antennae of the Japanese Carpenter Ant, Camponotus Japonicus
Abstract
Camponotus japonicus uses basiconic antennal sensilla (s. basiconica) to sense a colony-specific blend of species-specific cuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs). The inner portion of the s. basiconica is filled with sensillar lymph and chemosensory proteins (CSPs) presumed to transport CHCs to olfactory neuron receptors. Although 12 CSPs have been found in C. japonicus antennae, we focused on CjapCSP1 and CjapCSP13. The molecular basis of CSP1 function...
