Use of Bacterial Artificial Chromosomes in Baculovirus Research and Recombinant Protein Expression: Current Trends and Future Perspectives

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
The baculovirus expression system is one of the most successful and widely used eukaryotic protein expression methods. This short review will summarise the role of bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACS) as an enabling technology for the modification of the virus genome. For many years baculovirus genomes have been maintained in E.

A hypothetical model of crossing Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus through its host midgut physical barrier.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) is a primary pathogen of silkworm (B. mori) that causes severe economic losses each year. However, the molecular mechanisms of silkworm-BmNPV interactions, especially the silkworm proteins that can interact with ...

Bombyx mori β-1,3-Glucan Recognition Protein 4 (BmβGRP4) Could Inhibit the Proliferation of B. mori Nucleopolyhedrovirus through Promoting Apoptosis

Insects, 2021
β-1,3-glucan recognition proteins (βGRPs) as pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) play an important role in recognizing various pathogens and trigger complicated signaling pathways in insects.

An Anticarsia gemmatalis multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus mutant, vApAg, induces hemocytes apoptosis in vivo and displays reduced infectivity in larvae of Anticarsia gemmatalis (Hübner) (Lepidoptera : Noctuidae) [PDF]

, 2007
An Anticarsia gemmatalis multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AgMNPV) mutant, vApAg, induces apoptosis in a cell culture derived from Anticarsia gemmatalis (UFL-AG-286), reducing viral progeny.

RNAi Regulator C3PO Promotes Arbovirus Infection in Insect Vectors

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 4, 19 January 2026.
RNA interference (RNAi) is vital for eukaryotes to defend against virus infection. The C3PO complex takes part in RNAi but its role in regulating viral infection remains unclear. This work finds that insect C3PO facilitates arbovirus replication by degrading precursors of miRNAs, especially miR‐971‐3p.

Protection against Autoimmune Diabetes by Silkworm‐Produced GFP‐Tagged CTB‐Insulin Fusion Protein

Journal of Immunology Research, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
In animals, oral administration of the cholera toxin B (CTB) subunit conjugated to the autoantigen insulin enhances the specific immune‐unresponsive state. This is called oral tolerance and is capable of suppressing autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D).

Identification of a new Sprouty protein responsible for the inhibition of the Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus reproduction. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The rat sarcoma-extracellular signal regulated kinase mitogen-activated protein kinases pathway, one of the most ancient signaling pathways, is crucial for the defense against Bombyx mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV) infection.

Proteomic Analysis of Larval Midgut from the Silkworm (Bombyx mori)

International Journal of Genomics, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
The midgut is the major organ for food digestion, nutrient absorption and also a barrier for foreign substance. The 5th‐instar larval stage of silkworm is very important for larval growth, development, and silk production. In the present study, we used 2‐DE and matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (MALDI‐TOF‐MS ...

Gaps in the Thread: Disease, Production, and Opportunity in the Failing Silk Industry of South Sulawesi [PDF]

, 2017
Indonesian silk farming (Sericulture) has experienced two waves of a pebrine epidemic (also known as pepper disease) and grasserie. The first pebrine epidemic occurred in 1973 and the second one occurred in 2010.
