BmorPBP1 was first isolated by Maida et al.Bombykol, first discovered sex pheromone, of Bombyx mori (Silk Moth) by Butenandt in 1959.Pheromone-binding proteins (PBPs) are used to transport pheromones, semiochemicals, from the outside environment through the aqueous sensillary lymph to dendritic-odorant receptors.Advanced Biochemistry and Molecular Biology I BCMB 8010 11/30/10īombykol Background of Pheromone-binding proteins Bombyx mori, domesticated silkmoth, Pheromone-Binding Protein 1 Presented by: Tommy W.
