Visualization of protein digestion in the midgut of the acarid mite Lepidoglyphus destructor
Original language description
The resultsof in vivo enzymatic analysis indicate that cathepsins B, D, and G and cathepsin H or aminopeptidase-like activities are present in the midgut of L. destructor. Among these activities, cathepsin D-like activity was identified for the first time in the gut of L. destructor. All proteases mentioned are produced in the mesodeal lumen and form the food bolus together with ingested food, afterward passing through the gut to be defecated. The method used enables the visualization of protease activities in the gut of transparent animals. The results offer information on the ability of acaridid mites to digest protease substrates in vivo and indicate which proteases are digestive.
