Farnesyl Phosphatase, a Corpora allata Enzyme Involved in Juvenile Hormone Biosynthesis in Aedes aegypti

BACKGROUND: The juvenile hormones (JHs) are sesquiterpenoid compounds that play a central role in insect reproduction, development and behavior. The late steps of JH III biosynthesis in the mosquito Aedes aegypti involve the hydrolysis of farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) to farnesol (FOL), which is then...
