    abstract = {The non-toxic B subunit of<I> Escherichia coli</I> heat-labile 
  enterotoxin (LTB) is a potent mucosal immunogen and immunoadjuvant for coadministered 
  antigens. To obtain transformed silkworm cell line stably expressing LTB, researchers 
  fused the LTB coding sequence, neomycin-resistance gene (<I>Neo<SUP>R</SUP></I>) 
  and <I>gfp</I> gene into piggyBac-based transponson vector and transduced into 
  silkworm BmN cells. After screening against antibiotic G418, the positive rate 
  of cells emitting green fluorescence was 70.79%. PCR detection indicates the 
  existence of exogenous LTB coding sequence, Neo<SUP>R</SUP> and gfp in the transformed 
  cell genome. Western blot analysis also confirms the predicated ~60 kDa band 
  of LTB protein. These results demonstrated that the strategy was practicable.}
