The odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) and the chemosensory proteins (CSPs) are proteins from the lymph that are thought to accomplish these tasks, solubilizing and protecting the odorant and contact chemosensory molecules. This chapter describes the biochemical and evolutionary aspects of these two families of peripheral sensory proteins of insects. Particular attention will be paid to the subclassification of binding proteins, the diversity of gene structures and the phyletic and molecular relatedness between binding proteins from different insect species.

Broadly, there are two aspects in these comparative studies first, fundamental studies aimed at determining the structure of the proteins, their evolutionary changes, and the structures necessary to maintain their functions and the mechanism of their actions and second, determination of those biological properties which may lead to their use in pharmacology, medicine, and food science and technology.
