NPF signaling-dependent maintenance of metabolic homeostasis in the pea aphid is mediated by a highly selective ligand-receptor interaction and tissue-specific changes in NPF and NPFR

Neuropeptide F (NPF) and its receptor (NPFR) are important regulators of food intake, physiology and metabolism in insects. Focusing on a major crop pest, the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum, it is shown that the predicted NPFR is a highly selective NPF receptor. Its activation by NPFs from other inse...
