Functional Specialization Among Members Of Knickkopf Family Of Proteins In Insect Cuticle Organization
Our recent study on the functional analysis of the Knickkopf protein from T. castaneum (TcKnk), indicated a novel role for this protein in protection of chitin from degradation by chitinases. Knk is also required for the laminar organization of chitin in the procuticle. During a bioinformatics searc...
