RT   mature males of the desert locust, Schistocerca gregaria.";
RL   Insect Biochem. Mol. Biol. 31:1183-1189(2001).
CC   -!- FUNCTION: Has beta-carotene-binding activity. May be involved in the
CC       transport of carotenes from internal tissues to epidermis and cuticle
CC       of the locust.
CC   -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Deposited in the epidermis and cuticle of male
CC       locusts during their sexual maturation.
