Binary mixtures of Vanderbilt University allosteric agonist thermolysis components act as volatile spatial repellents for malaria vector mosquitoes
VUAIs are volatile alternatives to Vanderbilt University allosteric agonists (VUAAs) that have the potential for use as spatial repellents in disease vector and agricultural pest control. The repellency observed is odorant receptor coreceptor (Orco)-dependent, supporting the hypothesis that VUAIs and VUAAs similarly target an allosteric Orco recognition site. © 2024 The Author(s).
