Immobilization of foreign protein into polyhedra of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) [PDF]
In the late phase of Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) infection, a large amount of polyhedra appear in the infected cell nucleolus, these polyhedra being dense protein crystals protecting the incorporated virions from the harsh environment.

Serine protease Bm-SP142 was differentially expressed in resistant and susceptible Bombyx mori strains, involving in the defence response to viral infection. [PDF]
Bm-SP142 is a 35 kDa protease in the silkworm, but its exact functions remain unknown. In this study, sequence alignment revealed that the His-Asp-Ser catalytic triad is embedded in the TAAHC-DIAL-GDSGGP sequence motif, establishing Bm-SP142 as a serine ...

Gene Expression Pattern and Regulatory Network of α‐Toxin Treatment in Bombyx mori
Bacillus bombyseptieus is a pathogen of Bombyx mori; it can cause bacterial septicemia in silkworm. One of the components of the parasporal crystal toxin of B. bombyseptieus, α‐toxin, plays an important role in the process of infection in silkworm. In this study, we investigated the immune response of silkworm induced by α‐toxin by using RNA‐seq.
