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.

Abstract: Clonal transgenic silkworms are useful for the functional analysis of insect genes and for the production of recombinant proteins. Such silkworms have previously been created using an existing ameiotic parthenogenetic strain. However, the process was… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/v14061119
Abstract: Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is a pathogen that causes severe disease in silkworms. In a previous study, we demonstrated that by using the CRISPR/Cas9 system to disrupt the BmNPV ie-1 and me53 genes, transgenic silkworms… read more here.
