Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase regulates chitin synthesis in Mythimna separata
Trehalose is a substrate for the chitin synthesis pathway in insects. Thus, it directly affects chitin synthesis and metabolism. Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) is a crucial enzyme in the trehalose synthesis pathway in insects, but its functions in Mythimna separata remain unclear. In this stud...
