CPR63 promotes pyrethroid resistance by increasing cuticle thickness in Culex pipiens pallens

Abstract The cuticle protein (CP) encoded by CPR63 plays a role in deltamethrin resistance in Culex pipiens pallens. Herein, we investigated the distribution of CPR63 transcripts in this organism and observed high expression levels in legs and wings. Furthermore, expression of CPR63 in the legs of d...
