title: Partial N-terminal sequences of larval cuticular proteins from the dipteran Ceratitis capitata.
abstract: The partial amino acid sequences ranging in length over 17-30 residues from the N-terminus, have been obtained for nine cuticular proteins of Ceratitis capitata. Sequence similarities indicate that the proteins belong to a family which is related to cuticular proteins isolated from flexible cuticles of Drosophila melanogaster, Manduca sexta, Sarcophaga bullata and Hyalophora cecropia.
