Transcriptome‐wide analysis of N6‐methyladenosine uncovers its regulatory role in gene expression in the lepidopteran Bombyx mori

Insect molecular biology (Print), 2019
N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) methylation is the most common form of RNA modification in eukaryotes and has been shown to act as an important epitranscriptomic marker, which can regulate gene expression, messenger RNA stability, alternative splicing and ...

Bacteriophages fromBombyx mori

Archives of Virology, 1994
Preparations of silkworm larvae contained two large phages with contractile tails (Myoviridae). One phage was active on Pseudomonas paucimobilis. The other, not cultivated, was one of the largest viruses known.

Effects of phoxim exposure on gut microbial composition in the silkworm, Bombyx mori.

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2019
Organophosphate pesticides are widely applied worldwide for agricultural purposes, and their exposures often result in adverse effects on Bombyx mori. The insect gut is a complicated ecosystem inhabited by a large number of microbes that play important ...

Novel microRNAs in silkworm (Bombyx mori)

Functional & Integrative Genomics, 2010
We acquired more than 4 million useful sequences using a high-throughput method from a library for miRNA identification, which is constructed from a mixture of 14 RNA samples from different developmental stages. We mapped 247,410 reads to known silkworm miRNAs in miRBase (13.0), 701,913 reads to other RNA molecules based on sequence homology, and 3,219,

Structural and Mechanical Properties of Silk from Different Instars of Bombyx mori.

Biomacromolecules, 2019
Silkworm silk has excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and promising applications in the biomedical sector. Silkworms spin silk at the beginning and end of each of their five instar stages, as well as spinning mature silk after the fifth ...

CYSTINE IN SILK FIBROIN, BOMBYX MORI

International Journal of Protein Research, 1970
Silkworms of Bombyx mori in their fifth instar were fed mulberry leaves coated with 35S cysteine and the fibroin extracted from their glands. The 35S fibroin was oxidized and a sample, analysed, when the 35S was found exclusively in 35S cysteic acid.

C-lysozyme contributes to antiviral immunity in Bombyx mori against nucleopolyhedrovirus infection.

Journal of insect physiology, 2018
Lysozymes is a ubiquitous immune effector that is widely distributed in both vertebrates and invertebrates. Previous reports have shown that lysozymes significantly inhibit viral infections in vertebrates.

Electrospun Bombyx mori gland silk

Polymer, 2006
Solutions of Bombyx mori gland silk can be electrospun with the addition of some polyethylene oxide (PEO). Green fluorescent protein (GFP) can also be incorporated and electrospun without apparent phase separation from the silk. The dimensions of the fibers with and without the GFP are qualitatively similar.

DNA methylation on N6-adenine in lepidopteran Bombyx mori.

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta. Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 2018
Increasing knowledge of DNA methylation that occurs on the sixth position of adenine (N6-methyladenine, 6 mA) has emerged as a novel epigenetic mark in eukaryotes and plays an important role in regulating gene transcription, DNA replication and repair ...
