Recent studies on developmentally regulated hemolymph proteins in insects have shown that two proteins, a lipoprotein and a member of a hexamerin gene family, bind riboflavin. The biosynthesis, developmental regulation, and properties of these proteins are described and compared with the riboflavin-binding proteins and flavin distributions in vertebrates. The importance of riboflavin-binding proteins in insect development is discussed in relation to existing information and avenues for future research are presented.
近期关于昆虫发育调控血淋巴蛋白的研究表明，有两种蛋白，即一种脂蛋白和六聚体蛋白基因家族的一个成员，能够结合核黄素。本文描述了这些蛋白的生物合成、发育调控及特性，并与脊椎动物中的核黄素结合蛋白和黄素分布进行了比较。结合现有信息讨论了核黄素结合蛋白在昆虫发育中的重要性，并提出了未来的研究方向。
