- Title
Enzymes for ecdysteroid biosynthesis: their biological functions in insects and beyond.
- Authors
Ryusuke Niwa; Yuko S. Niwa
- Abstract
The article discusses the biological functions of enzymes for ecdysteroid biosynthesis in insects and other species such as nematodes, vertebrates, and lower eukaryotes. Topics covered include the enzymes that are critical for the synthesis of ecdysteroids and the functional conservation and diversity of ecdysteroidogenic enzymes in other insects and non-insects.
