MicroRNA of the fifth-instar posterior silk gland of silkworm identified by Solexa sequencing
نویسندگان
چکیده
No special studies have been focused on the microRNA (miRNA) in the fifth-instar posterior silk gland of Bombyx mori. Here, using next-generation sequencing, we acquired 93.2 million processed reads from 10 small RNA libraries. In this paper, we tried to thoroughly describe how our dataset generated from deep sequencing which was recently published in BMC genomics. Results showed that our findings are largely enriched silkworm miRNA depository and may benefit us to reveal the miRNA functions in the process of silk production.

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...

A bivoltine silkworm hybrid, KA x NB4D2 was treated with the juvenoid R394 (Ethyl-9 cyclohexyl-3,7-dimethyl-2,4-nonadienoate) at a dose of 0.039 nl/larva at 24, 48, 72 and 96 h of 5th instar for silk yield improvement. Treatment specific significant increase was observed in the cocoon and shell weight with no such marked variation in the shell percentage. Notable changes were also seen in tr...

The parameters of protein metabolism, such as the levels of total, soluble proteins and free amino acids and also the activity levels of protease, glutamate dehydrogenase, aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were assayed in the silk gland of the fifth instar larva of silkworm, Bombyx mori, under the impact of ultrasound. In general ultrasound has an elevatory effect on these...

Influence of magnetic field on biological system has been reported. The study reveals effect of magnetization of Bombyx mori larvae on the total protein content level in the silk gland, fat body and haemolymph of fifth instar larvae. First instar larvae were magnetized in 1000, 2000, 3000 and 4000 Gauss magnetic field for 30 minutes in a day till first moulting. Variation in the strength of mag...

Electron microscope observations of thin sections of epoxy resin-embeded posterior silk gland cells at the later stage of the fifth instar revealed that the Golgi vacuoles and the secretory granules (fibroin globules) in the cytoplasm and the glandular lumen contain fine fibrous materials. In frozen thin sections these structures appear as electron-dense granules and electron-dense blocks, or a...
