How Honey Bee Vitellogenin Holds Lipid Cargo: A Role for the C-Terminal
Vitellogenin (Vg) is a phylogenetically broad glycolipophosphoprotein. A major function of this protein is holding lipid cargo for storage and transportation. Vg has been extensively studied in honey bees (Apis mellifera) due to additional functions in social traits. Using AlphaFold and EM contour m...
