The Toll Signaling Pathway in the Chinese Oak Silkworm, Antheraea pernyi: Innate Immune Responses to Different Microorganisms
The Toll pathway is one of the most important signaling pathways regulating insect innate immunity. Spatzle is a key protein that functions as a Toll receptor ligand to trigger Toll-dependent expression of immunity-related genes. In this study, a novel spatzle gene (ApSPZ) from the Chinese oak silkworm Antheraea pernyi was identified. The ApSPZ cDNA is 1065 nucleotides with an open reading fram...

Sericulture is one of the great inventions of the ancient Chinese. Besides the mulberry silkworm (Bombyx mori), Chinese farmers developed rearing of the Chinese oak silkworm (Antheraea pernyi) about 400 years ago. In this paper, the historic records of the origins and dispersal of the domesticated Chinese oak silkworm in China are summarized. The first document with clearly recorded oak silkwor...

Abstact.In this study, we first reported the defense gene (ApDef) in lepidoptera insect, the Chinese oak silkworm Antheraea pernyi (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae). It consists of 677 bp with a putative open reading frame (ORF) of 492 bp encoding 163 amino acids residues. A signal peptide with 18 amino acids and a typical reeler domain was found in ApDef protein. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that ...
