Exploratory phosphoproteomics profiling of Aedes aegypti Malpighian tubules during blood meal processing reveals dramatic transition in function.

Malpighian tubules, the renal organs of mosquitoes, facilitate the rapid dehydration of blood meals through aquaporin-mediated osmosis. We performed phosphoproteomics analysis of three Malpighian tubule protein-libraries (1000 tubules/sample) from unfed female mosquitoes as well as one and 24 hours...
