Synergistic action of the transcription factors Krüppel homolog 1 and Hairy in juvenile hormone/Methoprene-tolerant-mediated gene-repression in the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

Synergistic action of the transcription factors Krüppel homolog 1 and Hairy in juvenile hormone/Methoprene-tolerant-mediated gene-repression in the mosquito Aedes aegypti.

Arthropod-specific juvenile hormones control numerous essential functions in development and reproduction. In the dengue-fever mosquito Aedes aegypti, in addition to its role in immature stages, juvenile hormone III (JH) governs post-eclosion (PE) development in adult females, a phase required for c...
