Genome Annotation of Molting-Related Protein-Coding Genes in <i>Propsilocerus akamusi</i> Reveals Transcriptomic Responses to Heavy Metal Contamination

The exoskeleton of insects, known as the cuticle, necessitates regular renewal during molting and metamorphosis, with chitin being its primary structural component. Consequently, the molting and metamorphosis processes in insects are characterized by periodic degradation and synthesis of chitin, whi...
