Silkworm as a Biofactory Insect: A Critical Narrative Review of Recombinant Production Platforms, Product Quality and Translational Readiness
The domesticated silkworm, Bombyx mori, has moved from a sericultural resource to an engineered production host for recombinant proteins, virus-like particles, functional silk, and, more recently, heterologous biosynthetic products. Its appeal is biologically distinctive: larvae and pupae support B. mori nucleopolyhedr...
