corpus allatum | the enzyme is mainly expressed in corpora allata, with only expression traces in ovary. Three different isoforms, differing in the 3'-UTR sequence, are identified. Isoform A shows between 35 and 65 times higher expression than B and C in corpora allata from penultimate nymphal instar and adult females | Blattella germanica | - |
ovary | the enzyme is mainly expressed in corpora allata, with only expression traces in ovary | Blattella germanica | - |

malfunction | RNAi-triggered knock down of the enzyme (JHAMT) produces an extremely high reduction of synthesis of the juvenile hormone, concomitant with a decrease of fat body vitellogenin expression and basal follicle length | Blattella germanica |
physiological function | nutrition and its signaling through the insulin receptor and TOR pathways are essential for activating enzyme (JHAMT) expression, which suggests that this enzyme can be a checkpoint for the regulation of juvenile hormone production in relation to nutritional status | Blattella germanica |
