General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism fatty acyl-CoA reductases (FARs) are key enzymes involved in fatty alcohol synthesis Phenacoccus solenopsis
physiological function fatty acyl-CoA reductases (FARs) are key enzymes involved in fatty alcohol synthesis, fatty alcohols are not only the precursors of sex pheromone components but also the precursors of wax-ester in insects. The two FAR genes, PsFAR I and PsFAR II, show different expression patterns during insect development and after pesticide treatment, suggesting that they play different roles in insect development and detoxification against pesticides Phenacoccus solenopsis
