| upregulation of a trypsin-like serine protease gene in antheraea pernyi (lepidoptera: saturniidae) strains exposed to different pathogens. | antheraea pernyi guérin-méneville is used for silk production and as a food resource. its infection by exogenous pathogens, including microsporidia, fungi, bacteria, and virus, can lead to silkworm diseases, causing major economic losses. a trypsin-like serine protease gene (tls) was found in a. pernyi transcriptome data resulting from two different infection experiments. the cdna sequence of aptls was 1,020 bp in length and contained an open reading frame of 774 bp encoding a 257-amino acid pro ... | 2017 | 28369437 |
| the toll signaling pathway in the chinese oak silkworm, antheraea pernyi: innate immune responses to different microorganisms. | the toll pathway is one of the most important signaling pathways regulating insect innate immunity. spatzle is a key protein that functions as a toll receptor ligand to trigger toll-dependent expression of immunity-related genes. in this study, a novel spatzle gene (apspz) from the chinese oak silkworm antheraea pernyi was identified. the apspz cdna is 1065 nucleotides with an open reading frame (orf) of 777 bp encoding a protein of 258 amino acids. the protein has an estimated molecular weight ... | 2016 | 27483463 |
| genome sequence of enterococcus pernyi, a pathogenic bacterium for the chinese oak silkworm, antheraea pernyi. | we report the draft genome assembly of enterococcus pernyi the genome sequence is 3.09 mb in length with a g+c content of 38.35%. it covers 3,153 genes with an average length of 854 bp, and contains 65 trnas, 13 small rnas, and 18 rrnas. moreover, it contains 9 genomic islands with an average length of 14,058 bp and 3 prophages with an average length of 37,430 bp. | 2016 | 27198035 |
