Disease relevance of egt

The ecdysteroid UDP-glucosyltransferase (egt) gene of Mamestra brassicae multinucleocapsid nucleopolyhedrovirus (MbMNPV) has been cloned and characterized [1].

High impact information on egt

A Japanese isolate of Mamestra brassicae nucleopolyhedrovirus (MabrNPV) was identified phylogenetically as a group II nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) that is related closely to other NPVs isolated from Mamestra spp. based on nucleotide sequence data of its polh, egt and lef-3 genes [2].
