The silk proteins, sericin and fibroin in silkworm, Bombyx mori
The domesticated silkworm, Bombyx mori Linn., a lepidopteran molecular model and an important economic insect that are emerging as an ideal molecular genetic resource for solving a broad range of biological problems. The silkworm, B. mori produces massive amount of silk proteins during the final stage of larval development. These proteins are stored in the middle silk gland and they are dischar...

متن کاملPreparation of Porous Scaffolds from Silk Fibroin Extracted from the Silk Gland of Bombyx mori (B. mori)
In order to use a simple and ecofriendly method to prepare porous silk scaffolds, aqueous silk fibroin solution (ASF) was extracted from silk gland of 7-day-old fifth instar larvae of Bombyx mori (B. mori). SDS-page analysis indicated that the obtained fibroin had a molecular weight higher than 200 kDa. The fabrication of porous scaffolds from ASF was achieved by using the freeze-drying method....
متن کاملEffect of Cobalt Chloride on the Amino Acid Levels in Silk Gland of Silkworm, Bombyx mori L
The effect of cobalt on the total proteins, protease activity, free amino acids, alanine amino transferase (ALAT) activity and aspartate amino transferase (AAT) activity were studied. The increase of total protein content in silk gland may be either due to increased efflux or decreased proteolysis activity which might lead to accumulation of protein content. The decrease of protease activity le...
متن کاملProcessing of Bombyx mori silk for biomedical applications
This chapter highlights various processing methodologies that may be utilized to create a variety of structural forms from the protein fi broin, which is derived from the Bombyx mori silkworm cocoon. Modulation of fi broin material properties will be considered with respect to induced protein secondary structure formation. Additional considerations will be explored for sericin removal and fi br...
