| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Molting hormone agonists with varied basic structures, such as diacylhydrazine, imidazole, imidazothiadiazole, tetrahydroquinoline, were chemically synthesized and their binding affinity to varied ecdysone receptors (EcRs) was quantitatively measured. Effect of the alkyl substituents of the imidazole ring on the binding affinity against Spodoptera furugiperda EcR was studied. With respect to imidazothiadiazole analogs, the substituent effects were quantitatively analyzed using QSAR. Racemic cis-form of a tetrahydroquinoline analog was separated into two enantiomers and their absolute configurations were determined. The binding affinity of these two enantiomers was evaluated against Aedes albopictus. Amino acid sequences of EcRs of two ladybug species and a sweet potato whitefly were deduced using cDNA cloning. Ligand-receptor binding assay was performed using these in vitro translated EcR and USP.
