Chemical Stimuli

Four types of trichoid sensilla were described on the ovipositor of the spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana (Clem.) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae). Types I and III sensilla were short and long multiporous hairs, respectively. Type IV sensilla were long and aporous. Each was innervated by a single dendrite. Type II sensilla were multiporous and also had a single terminal pore. They were innervated by four dendrites. Electrophysiological responses were obtained from these type II sensilla to a range of chemical stimuli.

Shell Proteins

Bacterial microcompartments are large supramolecular structures comprising an outer proteinaceous shell that encapsulates various enzymes in order to optimize metabolic processes. The outer shells of bacterial microcompartments are made of several thousand protein subunits, generally forming hexameric building blocks based on the canonical bacterial microcompartment (BMC) domain. Among the diverse metabolic types of bacterial microcompartments, the structures of those that use glycyl radical enzymes to metabolize choline have not been adequately characterized. Here, six structures of hexameric shell proteins from type I and type II choline-utilization microcompartments are reported. Sequence and structure analysis reveals electrostatic surface properties that are shared between the four types of shell proteins described here.
