New insight into the mechanism underlying the silk gland biological process by knocking out fibroin heavy chain in the silkworm
Abstract Background Exploring whether and how mutation of silk protein contributes to subsequent re-allocation of nitrogen, and impacts on the timing of silk gland degradation, is important to understand silk gland biology. Rapid development and wide application of genome editing approach in the sil...
