Novel enhancer and promoter elements indispensable for the tissue-specific expression of the sericin-1 gene of the silkworm Bombyx mori.

Insect biochemistry and molecular biology - 1 Aug 2011

Takiya Shigeharu, Inoue Hiroshige, Kimoto Mai

Abstract excerpt

Sericins are glue proteins produced specifically in the middle silk gland (MSG) of the silkworm Bombyx mori, while the silk fiber protein, fibroin, is produced in the posterior silk gland (PSG). These silk proteins are expected to be useful biomaterials in medical technology as well as biotechnology. In this study, we analyzed promoter elements of the sericin-1 gene (ser1) in vivo by introducing reporter...
