Changes in Dopamine-sensitive Adenylate Cyclase Activity in Salivary Glands of Feeding Female Lone Star Ticks Amblyomma Americanum (L.)
Abstract
This study was designed to determine the importance of the enzyme adenylate cyclase in the salivary glands of female lone star ticks Amblyomma americanum (L.), as this enzyme catalyses� the production of intracellular cyclic AMP, a molecule known to play a key role in the fluid secretory process of feeding female ixodid ticks.
