Identification, Baculoviral Expression, and Biochemical Characterization of a Novel Cholinesterase of <i>Amblyomma americanum</i> (Acari: Ixodidae)

Identification, Baculoviral Expression, and Biochemical Characterization of a Novel Cholinesterase of <i>Amblyomma americanum</i> (Acari: Ixodidae)

A cDNA encoding a novel cholinesterase (ChE, EC 3.1.1.8) from the larvae of <i>Amblyomma americanum</i> (Linnaeus) was identified, sequenced, and expressed in <i>Sf21</i> insect cell culture using the baculoviral expression vector pBlueBac4.5/V5-His. The open reading frame (1...
