Activating Compound

Activating Compound Comment Organism Structure
additional information insects treated with different substances, methoprene, increases JH esterase by 2.5fold, juvenile hormone III increases JH esterase by 2.2 fold Trichoplusia ni

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
additional information insects treated with different substances, trans-stilbene oxide do not alter JH esterase levels when topically applied, but oral administration reduces activity to 70%, cholesterol 5alpha,6alpha-epoxide reduces the JH esterase activity to 60–80% of the control, 3-octylthio-1,1,1-trifluoropropan-2-one strongly reduces JH esterase activity Trichoplusia ni
