NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR) is crucial for the detoxification process catalysed by cytochrome P450, which targets various exogenous xenobiotics, as well as pesticides. In our research, we successfully obtained the complete cDNA sequence of 's CPR () using reverse transcription PCR along with rapid amplification of cDNA ends technology. Bioinformatics analysis exhibited that the inferred amino acid sequence of AlCPR is characteristic of standard CPRs, featuring an N-terminal membrane anchor and three conserved FMN, FAD and NADP binding sites. Phylogenetic result revealed that AlCPR was positioned within the Hemiptera cluster, showing a close evolutionary relationship with the CPR of . The real-time quantitative PCR results demonstrated widespread expression of across various life stages and tissues of , with the most prominent expression in adults and the abdominal region. Injecting double-stranded RNA of only significantly increased the lambda-cyhalothrin susceptibility in lambda-cyhalothrin-resistant strain rather than the susceptible strain. These findings suggest a potential link between AlCPR and the P450-dependent defence mechanism against lambda-cyhalothrin in

Amaryllidaceae alkaloids (AAs), such as galanthamine and lycorine, are natural products of Lycoris radiata possessing various pharmacological activities including anti-acetylcholinesterase, anti-inflammatory, and antitumour activities. Elucidating the biosynthesis of these special AAs is crucial for understanding their production and potential modification for improved clinical application, of which cytochrome P450 enzymes catalyse the formation of key alkaloid skeletons and subsequent modification processes, with the NAPDH cytochrome P450 reductases (CPRs) serving as essential redox partners. This study identified three CPRs, LrCPR1, LrCPR2, and LrCPR3, encoding 700, 697 and 695 amino acids, respectively, which belong to Class II CPRs.

Environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs) are a recently recognized component of particulate matter that cause respiratory and cardiovascular toxicity. The mechanism of EPFR toxicity appears to be related to their ability to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), causing oxidative damage. EPFRs were shown to affect P450 function, inducing the expression of some forms through the Ah receptor.

The tomato leafminer, Tuta absoluta (Meyrick), one of the most economically destructive pests of tomato, causes severe yields losses of tomato production globally. Rapid evolution of insecticide resistance requires the development of alternative control strategy for this pest. RNA interference (RNAi) represents a promising, innovative control strategy against key agricultural insect pests, which has recently been licensed for Colorado Potato Beetle control.
