A "genome-to-lead" approach for insecticide discovery: pharmacological characterization and screening of Aedes aegypti D(1)-like dopamine receptors.
BACKGROUND: Many neglected tropical infectious diseases affecting humans are transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes and ticks. New mode-of-action chemistries are urgently sought to enhance vector management practices in countries where arthropod-borne diseases are endemic, especially where vec...
