Tep1 locus¶
This page provides information about the Tep1 thioester-containing protein gene, a locus for which there is prior evidence of recent positive selection and/or an association with insecticide resistance in Anopheles mosquitoes.
The locus occurs on chromosome arm 3L from position 11,202,091 to 11,206,882.
The locus contains gene AGAP010815 (TEP1 - thioester-containing protein 1).
