The Pleiotropic Roles of FGLamide Allatostatins in the African Migratory Locust, Locusta migratoria
The FGLa/ASTs are one family of allatostatin peptides and share an amidated C-terminal sequence (FGL-amide). The inhibitory effect of FGLa/ASTs on juvenile hormone (JH) biosynthesis in Diploptera punctata led to their discovery, but there is a lack of allatostatic function across most insect species...
