P300/HDAC1 regulates the acetylation/deacetylation and autophagic activities of LC3/Atg8–PE ubiquitin-like system
Protein acetylation plays potential roles in regulating autophagy occurrence. However, it varies greatly between yeast and mammals, and has not been...

Acetylation of BmAtg8 inhibits starvation-induced autophagy initiation
Silkworm ( Bombyx mori ) is not only a model organism for scientific studies, but also a commercial insect for agricultural production. BmAtg8 (a B. mori ...

UvAtg8-Mediated Autophagy Regulates Fungal Growth, Stress Responses, Conidiation, and Pathogenesis in Ustilaginoidea virens
BackgroundUstilaginoidea virens has become one of the most devastating rice pathogens in China, as well as other rice-growing areas. Autophagy is an...

Methods for Monitoring Autophagy in Silkworm Organs
In holometabolous insects, various larval organs are remodeled by autophagy during metamorphosis. Although moths and butterflies are among the first... -
Ecdysone controlled cell and tissue deletion
The removal of superfluous and unwanted cells is a critical part of animal development. In insects the steroid hormone ecdysone, the focus of this...

New insight into the mechanism underlying the silk gland biological process by knocking out fibroin heavy chain in the silkworm
BackgroundExploring whether and how mutation of silk protein contributes to subsequent re-allocation of nitrogen, and impacts on the timing of silk...

Changes in 30K protein synthesis during delayed degeneration of the silk gland by a caspase-dependent pathway in a Bombyx (silkworm) mutant
The silk gland in silkworm ( Bombyx mori ) is a highly specialized organ that specifically synthesizes silk proteins. A function shift to the synthesis...
