Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

MAPs and microtubule motor proteins from the massive microtubule translocation complexes within the ovaries of hemipteran insects have been identified and characterized. Both classes of proteins have been compared with those of other systems, and the function of both in the insect ovaries is speculated upon.
