Abstrakt: |
Recent studies on developmentally regulated hemolymph proteins in insects have shown that two proteins, a lipoprotein and a member of a hexamerin gene family, bind riboflavin. The biosynthesis, developmental regulation, and properties of these proteins are described and compared with the riboflavin-binding proteins and flavin distributions in vertebrates. The importance of riboflavin-binding proteins in insect development is discussed in relation to existing information and avenues for future research are presented. |
