New isolated polynucleotide based on gene isolated from Heliothis virescens, encoding insect neurokinin receptor, useful as target in screening for receptor modulating pesticides |
摘要 |
<p>An isolated insect polynucleotide (I) encoding insect neurokinin receptor, is new : An isolated insect polynucleotide (I) encoding insect neurokinin receptor, is new (I) comprises a nucleotide sequence which: (a) encodes a polypeptide sequence given in the specification as SEQ ID NO:2 or SEQ ID NO:4, (b) have at least 75% nucleotide sequence identity with a sequence given in the specification as SEQ ID NO:1 or SEQ ID NO:3, or (c) hybridizes under stringent conditions with nucleic acid molecules having sequences as specified in (b). Independent claims are included for: (A) a recombinant vector including (I); (B) a recombinant host cell including the recombinant vector; (C) the production of insect neurokinin receptor (NKD), by culturing the above host cells under conditions suitable for expression of the protein insect NKD, then recovering the protein; (D) a purified protein (II), having at least 80% sequence identity with SEQ ID NO:2 or SEQ ID NO:4; (E) a method for detecting an agent (A) for reducing the calcium ion channel activity of insect NKD by contacting a test compound with insect NKD (or its active fragment) and detecting any inhibitory action, where the insect NKD has a sequence as defined for (II); (F) a method for controlling pests, involving contacting the pest with a compound (A) identified by the above method; and (G) an isolated agent which reduces the calcium ion channel activity of insect NKD.</p> |
