Secondary Metabolism and Hormone Response Reveal the Molecular Mechanism of Triploid Mulberry (Morus Alba L.) Trees Against Drought

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The improvement of a plant's tolerance to drought is a major endeavor in agriculture. Polyploid plants often exhibit enhanced stress tolerance relative to their diploid progenitor, but the matching stress tolerance is still little understood.

Diverging Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation Behavior of Different Recombinant Major Ampullate Spidroins. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
Fibers spun from the MaSp1‐derivative as well as MaSp1‐MaSp2‐mixtures provide a deeper insight into the assembly process of the spidroins and how hierarchical architectures of spider silk fibers could be achieved. ABSTRACT Spider silk fibers show exceptional mechanical properties, based on their underlying spider silk proteins (spidroins) as well as a ...

Exploring Silk Sericin for Diabetic Wounds: An In Situ-Forming Hydrogel to Protect against Oxidative Stress and Improve Tissue Healing and Regeneration

Biomolecules, 2022
Chronic wounds are one of the most frequent complications that are associated with diabetes mellitus. The overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a key factor in the delayed healing of a chronic wound.
