Genome-Wide Identification and Characterization of Carboxypeptidase Genes in Silkworm (Bombyx mori)

The silkworm (Bombyx mori) is an economically-important insect that can secrete silk. Carboxypeptidases have been found in various metazoan species and play important roles in physiological and biochemical reactions. Here, we analyzed the silkworm genome database and characterized 48 carboxypeptidas...
