Abstract

The Anopheles gambiae cDNA encoding the homologue of the Drosophila melanogaster proteasome PROS-Dm25 was identified and analysed in terms of nucleotide sequence, and chromosomal localisation. In the 3' untranslated region, a GA-rich sequence was mapped which was found to be widely polymorphic among taxa belonging to the A. gambiae complex.
