The occurrence of the enzyme ecdysone oxidase was demonstrated in several insect species. In blowflies it was detected mainly in eggs and pupae. The enzyme activity in blowflies varies during development parallel to the ecdysteroid content. This suggests a specific but presently unknown function of the enzyme. Ecdysone oxidase was located mainly in the fat body and gut of blowflies. It is a cytosolic enzyme.
在几种昆虫物种中都证实了蜕皮激素氧化酶的存在。在丽蝇中,主要在卵和蛹中检测到该酶。丽蝇体内的酶活性在发育过程中与蜕皮甾体含量平行变化。这表明该酶具有一种特定但目前未知的功能。蜕皮激素氧化酶主要位于丽蝇的脂肪体和肠道中。它是一种胞质酶。
