Identification of the genes which related cold (low temperature) stress in Bombyx mori

Stress may be defined as any modification of environmental parameters that leads to a response by biological organisms. Stresses that affect biolpgical structures may be nonthermal, such as ultraviolet radiation, pH, or salinity, or thermal. Temperture is one of the major stresses that all living or...

Description
Summary:Stress may be defined as any modification of environmental parameters that leads to a response by biological organisms. Stresses that affect biolpgical structures may be nonthermal, such as ultraviolet radiation, pH, or salinity, or thermal. Temperture is one of the major stresses that all living organism face. The major effects of cold(low emperature) are decrease of membrane fluidity and the stabilization of secondary structures of RNA and DNA in the cells, which may effect the efficiency of translation, transcription, and DNA replication. In this study, we focus on discovering the genes that are expressed by the cold(low temperature) stress in the silkworm. In cold(low temperature) stress test, we found 100% survive from cold stress at 0oC up to 12h and –5oC up to 2h, and then, survive rate was rapidly decrease in silkworm. Thereafter two whole genes have selected by SSH(Suppression subtractive hybridization). (GenBank accession : GQ149511, GQ338156) KCI Citation Count: 0
