The exoskeleton of insects and other arthropods is a very versatile material that is characterized by a complex multilayer structure. In Sobala and Adler (2016) we analyzed the process of wing cuticle deposition by RNAseq and electron microscopy. In this extra view we discuss the unique aspects of the envelope the first and most outermost layer and the gene expression program seen at the end of cuticle deposition. We discussed the role of undulae in the deposition of cuticle and how the hydrophobicity of wing cuticle arises.
昆虫和其他节肢动物的外骨骼是一种非常通用的材料,其特征在于复杂的多层结构。在索巴拉和阿德勒(2016年)的研究中,我们通过RNA测序和电子显微镜分析了翅角质层沉积的过程。在这个补充观点中,我们讨论了表皮(最外层的第一层)的独特方面以及角质层沉积末期出现的基因表达程序。我们讨论了波纹在角质层沉积中的作用以及翅角质层疏水性的产生方式。
