Glycosyltransferase activities. PSGs from the parental (w1-pnd) or transgenic (Flc-GG#1 and Flc-GG#2) silkworm strains were extracted and assayed for the presence of MGAT2 (A) and B4GALT1 (B) activities, as described in Materials and methods. Activities were determined as the average cpm of tritiated N-acetylglucosamine or galactose transferred to the acceptor substrate/100 μg protein. The results are presented as the mean ± standard deviation obtained in three independent measurements. The statistical significance of the differences in MGAT2 or B4GALT1 activities observed in the transgenic silkworms, relative to the w1-pnd controls were determined by one-way ANOVA analysis.
