Abstract

Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are small “bowl-like” globular proteins, highly abundant in the antennae of most insect species. These proteins are believed to mediate reception of odor molecules at the periphery of sensory receptor neurons. Therefore, they may represent crucial targets for becoming new methods of insect pest control by directly interfering with the olfactory acuity of the insect. The current better understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying odor detection and the knowledge about the functional binding sites of OBPs and many other families of binding proteins in various insect species is elucidated here. Such information forms the basis for the synthesis of new inhibitor olfactory compounds (Odorant Reception-Suppressing Agents, ORSAs) to interact specifically with the groups of insect pests.
