RNA Interference-Mediated Knockdown of <i>Bombyx mori</i> Haemocyte-Specific Cathepsin L (<i>Cat L</i>)-Like Cysteine Protease Gene Increases <i>Bacillus thuringiensis kurstaki</i> Toxicity and Reproduction in Insect Cadavers
The silkworm’s <i>Cat L</i>-like gene, which encodes a lysosomal cathepsin L-like cysteine protease, is thought to be part of the insect’s innate immunity via an as-yet-undetermined mechanism. Assuming that the primary function of Cat L-like is microbial degradation in mature phagosomes,...
