Abstract:		Two cDNA clones encoding pheromone binding proteins (PBPs) were isolated from antennal cDNA of Mamestra brassicae by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends-PCR (RACE-PCR) performed with specific primers deduced from the N-terminal sequences of two PBPs previously reported. The deduced protein sequences of the two PBPs showed a strong relationship between primary structures and functional properties of the corresponding mature proteins
