Abstract

Storage proteins (SPs) were significantly detected in the hemolymph during the late instar larvae of diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella. These SPs were resolved into three proteins (SP1, SP2, and SP3) at 7% SDS-PAGE. Their apparent molecular sizes were around 80 kDa. SP1 was synthesized later than SP2 and SP3 during the development of the last instar. Total soluble proteins of last instar larvae were extracted and fractionated sequentially with ammonium sulfate, size-exclusion chromatography, and ion-exchange chromatography. The SPs were purified and their developmental expression was discussed.
