Taxonomy
Silkworm, B.mori is used for the study of physiology, development and molecular biology of other harmful insect pests, also act as a model to study the human disease (Krishnan and Konig, 2010).Life cycle of Bombyx mori is around 41±2 days. It consist four stages like egg, larva, pupa and adult. Classification Kingdom : Animalia Phylum : Arthropoda Class : Insecta Order : Lepidoptera

B.moriSlide5
The larval midgut is formed of an epithelial cell monolayer composed of columnar, goblet and stem cells (Cermenati
et al., 2007). The columnar cells are mainly responsible for food digestion and nutrition absorption. Midgut is also a barrier for the foreign substances during food digestion. It has been found that some proteins such as lipase, 28 kDa serine protease and SP-2 in midgut have antiviral activity against Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV) (Ponnuvel et al., 2003; Nakazawa et al., 2004).Moreover, midgut has been recognized as one of the important targets for insect control using B. thuringiensis and silencing theexpression of vital genes using RNA interference (RNAi). These two are major tool in insect management (Hakim et al., 2010).Introduction Slide6
The midgut shows dramatic changes during transition from larva to pupa and adult
The pupa is the intermediate phase (Anti-feeding stage), when larval specific tissues such as fat body, silk gland and larval muscle undergo histolysis and histogenesis for grow into the organs and external structures of the adult (Wigglesworth, 1967).Proteolytic enzymes are key player in the degradation of structural components in larval tissues, as they are remodelled during metamorphosis (Law et al., 1977; Natori, 1999). To date, several types of proteases have been studied with respect to their participation in this midgut tissue remodelling based on their localization and stage-dependent expression. . Cathepsin-like proteases (Cathepsin L-like enzyme and cathepsin-D like enzyme )Matrix-metalloproteases (MMPs), Serine proteases and caspasesIntroduction cont…Slide7
Particularly, serine protease is involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development,
blood coagulation, immune responses, signal transduction, hormone activation, reproduction and tissue remodelling in insects (Nakajima et al., 1997).Previous studies shows that 37kDa serine protease was synthesized as a zymogen at larval stage and activated upon pupation and involved in midgut tissue remodelling of silkworm B.mori (Kaji et al., 2009). However, further role and molecular mechanism of 37kDa serine protease activation on midgut tissue remodelling in silkworm, B.mori is unclear.In the present study, we plan to characterize the 37kDa serine protease zymogen activation for better understanding insect gut physiology and exploit the active 37kDa serine protease as a drug to earlier activation of larval midgut tissue remodelling (lysis), that will pay a novel bio control strategy.Introduction cont…Slide8

Summary and Conclusion
Molecular characterization of 37kDa serine protease will be helpful for the understanding of midgut physiology in silkworm, B.mori The present study successfully cloned and over expressed the 37kDa serine protease zymogen in BL21 (DE3) at optimized temperature (22°C) and IPTG (1mM) induction.The expression of desired protein was observed in soluble fraction around >40% at 42.5 kDa.Over expressed 37kDa serine protease zymogen was successfully purified by immobilized affinity chromatography using Ni-NTA agarose resin. The purified 37kDa serine protease zymogen molecular weight and pI was observed as 42.5kDa and 6.4 respectively. This result similar to theoretical pI/Mw is 6.46/37 kDa.Slide33
The MALDI-TOF-MS results confirmed that the over expressed purified protein spot was 37kDa serine protease.
Mature form of serine protease (Ap37k) was amplified and cloned for over expression.Isoelectric point of ap37k was observed at 5.91. Acidic pH may play a major role in the p37k activation.Further work is ongoing in our laboratory for the identification zymogen activation factor and access the Ap37k insecticidal activityIn future, the development of this enzyme as a biopesticide will be much helpful for insect pest management through a environmental friendly approach.Summary cont….Slide34
