Abstract excerpt
We characterized a full-length gene encoding wild silkmoth Antheraea pernyi fibroin (Ap-fibroin) to clarify the conformation of repetitive sequences. The gene consisted of a first exon encoding 14 amino acid residues, a short intron (120 bp), and a long second exon encoding 2,625 amino acid resid...
