"Primary structure of two major cuticular proteins from the migratory locust, Locusta migratoria, and their identification in polyacrylamide gels by mass spectrometry.";
Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1429:151-162(1998).

Comments

FUNCTION: Component of the cuticle of migratory locust which contains more than 100 different structural proteins.
DOMAIN: The tetrapeptide (A-A-P-[AV]) repeats found throughout the protein are also present in many proteins constituting the protective envelope of other species.
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 chitin-binding type R&R domain.
