YP4, a subunit of the follicular epithelium yolk protein in the moth, Plodia interpunctella, is produced in the follicle cells during vitellogenesis and after secretion is taken up into the oocyte and stored in the yolk spheres for utilization during embryogenesis. In order to identify the cDNA clon
Proteolytic degradation of three classes of vitellogenin-derived yolk proteins (lipovitellin, phosvitin, and Ξ²Β΄-component) was quantitatively examined during oocyte maturation in barfin flounder, Verasper moseri, a marine teleost which spawns pelagic eggs. Oocyte maturation takes place over 7 days a
