Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (P450s) are a superfamily of multifunctional heme-containing proteins and could function as odorant-degrading enzymes (ODEs) in insect olfactory systems. In our previous study, we identified a P450 gene from the antennal transcriptome of Locusta migratoria, LmCYP6MU1, which could be induced by a variety of volatiles. However, the regulatory mechanisms of this gene in response to volatiles remain unknown. In current study, we investigated the tissues and development stages expression patterns of LmCYP6MU1 and determined its olfactory function in the recognition of the main host plant volatiles which induced LmCYP6MU1 expression. The results showed that LmCYP6MU1 was antenna-rich and highly expressed throughout the antennal developmental stages of locusts. LmCYP6MU1 played important roles in the recognition of trans-2-hexen-1-al and nonanal. Insect CncC regulates the expression of P450 genes. We tested whether LmCncC regulates LmCYP6MU1 expression. It was found that LmCncC knockdown in the antennae resulted in the downregulation of LmCYP6MU1 and repressed the volatiles-mediated induction of LmCYP6MU1. LmCncC knockdown reduced the electroantennogram (EAG) and behavioral responses of locusts to volatiles. These results suggested that LmCncC could regulate the basal and volatiles-mediated inducible expression of LmCYP6MU1 responsible for the recognition of trans-2-hexen-1-al and nonanal. These findings provide an original basis for understanding the regulation mechanisms of LmCncC on LmCYP6MU1 expression and help us better understand the LmCncC-mediated olfactory plasticity.
