Beyond chemoreception: diverse tasks of soluble olfactory proteins in insects
Odorant‐binding proteins (OBPs) and chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are regarded as
carriers of pheromones and odorants in insect chemoreception. These proteins are typically …

Soluble proteins of chemical communication: an overview across arthropods
Detection of chemical signals both in insects and in vertebrates is mediated by soluble
proteins, highly concentrated in olfactory organs, which bind semiochemicals and activate …

The First Myriapod Genome Sequence Reveals Conservative Arthropod Gene Content and Genome Organisation in the Centipede Strigamia maritima
Myriapods (eg, centipedes and millipedes) display a simple homonomous body plan relative
to other arthropods. All members of the class are terrestrial, but they attained terrestriality …
