## Abstract Inorganic polyphosphate (poly P) is a polymer of phosphate residues that has been shown to act as modulator of some vertebrate cathepsins. In the egg yolk granules of __Rhodnius prolixus__, a cathepsin D is the main protease involved in yolk mobilization and is dependent on an activatio

At least three GTP-binding proteins (G-proteins), 28, 25, and 21 kDa, were found in the brain-corpus cardiacum-corpus allatum complex (BR-CC-CA) of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. They bound to GTP and GDP specifically among nucleotides tested, indicating that these proteins are small G-proteins. The 25

An active corpus allatum (CA) in the blood feeding insect, Rhodnius prolixus, releases a substance that inhibits metamorphosis in larvae, and activates egg production in adults. In adults, transecting the nervus corporis cardiacum II's (NCCII), which are attached posteriorly to each protocerebral lo
