Antioxidant Role of Rhodnius prolixus Heme-binding Protein
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
It is proposed that in vivo RHBP binds the heme derived from digestion of blood hemoglobin, suppressing the generation of activated oxygen species and protecting the insect against oxidative stress throughout the feeding cycle.
