Combined effect of Cameo2 and CBP on the cellular uptake of lutein in the silkworm, Bombyx mori. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Formation of yellow-red color cocoons in the silkworm, Bombyx mori, occurs as the result of the selective delivery of carotenoids from the midgut to the silk gland via the hemolymph. This process of pigment transport is thought to be mediated by specific
