DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrc.2019.11.094
Abstract: Sericin, produced in the middle silk gland (MSG) of silkworms, is a group of glue proteins that coat and cement silk fibers. Several genes are known to encode sericin, but their spatiotemporal regulation has yet… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ibmb.2021.103607
Abstract: Larvae of many lepidopteran species produce a mixture of secretory proteins, known as silk, for building protective shelters and cocoons. Silk consists of a water-insoluble silk filament core produced in the posterior silk gland (PSG)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1744-7917.13191
Abstract: The silk-gland cells of silkworm are special cells which only replicate DNA in the nucleus without cell division throughout the larval stage. The extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) have not yet been reported in the silk-gland… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0259870
Abstract: Transcription factors (TFs) are key proteins that modulate gene transcription and thereby lead to changes in the gene expression profile and the subsequent alteration of cellular functions. In the silk gland (SG) of silkworm Bombyx… read more here.

DOI: 10.24272/j.issn.2095-8137.2022.065
Abstract: Heterosis is a common phenomenon in plants and animals with diverse underlying mechanisms. Here, we applied two widely used silkworm hybrid systems and performed multi-omics analysis to identify possible intrinsic associations between different hybrid strategies… read more here.
