Characterization of the Gene BmEm4, a Homologue of Drosophila E(spl)m4, from the Silkworm, Bombyx mori
Figure 4
Levels of transcription and translation of BmEm4 in different tissues from day-3 fifth instar larvae. (a) Western blot analysis. Protein extracts from the trachea (T), head (H), fatty body (F), testis (TE), gut (G), Malpighian tubule (M), epidermis (E), ovary (O), and silk gland (S) of fifth instar larvae were subjected to immunoblotting. (b) Real-time qRT-PCR analysis. The relative expression level was calculated using . Three independent experiments were performed.
