  • Title: Soluble and particle-bound trehalase in the silk glands during larval-pupal development of the silkworm, Bombyx mori.
    Author: Shimada S.
    Journal: Arch Int Physiol Biochim; 1981 Nov; 89(4):341-3. PubMed ID: 6174091.
    Abstract:
    Trehalase localization in silk glands of the silkworm, Bombyx mori has been studied during larval-pupal development. Subcellular distribution of the silk gland trehalase depends upon larval-pupal development. The activity increases in the soluble fraction with a concomitant decrease in the particle-bound fraction during larval-pupal development. The pH-optimum value of trehalase activity in the particle-bound fraction changes from 6.5 to 6.0, and in the soluble fraction from 5.5 to 4.5 in the course of the silk gland degeneration during metamorphosis.
