additional information |
BmCatB RNAi treatment results in an arrest of the larval-pupal transformation. RNAi-mediated BmCatB knockdown sustains the expression of BmCatD during the larval-pupal transformation. On the other hand, when BmCatD is inhibited via RNAi, the expression of BmCatB is upregulated, overview |
