Functional characterization of 42 CK2α de novo variants associated with Okur‐Chung neurodevelopmental syndrome

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Okur‐Chung neurodevelopmental syndrome (OCNDS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder associated with mutations in the gene coding for Protein kinase CK2α. In this work, 42 variants of CK2α associated with OCNDS were characterized in vitro. This included determination of catalytic activity and CK2α/CK2β‐interaction as well as an assessment of evolutionary ...

The influence of a cooling water system on waterbird habitat use in a coastal environment

Ibis, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of a cooling water system at a nuclear power plant in northern Europe on coastal waterbird habitat use. In winter, the cooling water system provided preferential areas for waterbirds with warm productive waters, and, more importantly, with ice‐free areas.

Evolution of mitochondrial genomes in Baikalian amphipods

, 2020
© 2016 The Author(s).Background: Amphipods (Crustacea) of Lake Baikal are a very numerous and diverse group of invertebrates generally believed to have originated by adaptive radiation. The evolutionary history and phylogenetic relationships in Baikalian

Diel activity of Niphargus amphipods in spring habitats [PDF]

, 2021
Among crustaceans, numerous aquatic species are obligate groundwater-dwellers, i.e., stygobionts; their most common adaptations are the absence of eyes and a general depigmentation.

Salinity modulates thermotolerance, energy metabolism and stress response in amphipods Gammarus lacustris

PeerJ, 2016
Temperature and salinity are important abiotic factors for aquatic invertebrates. We investigated the influence of different salinity regimes on thermotolerance, energy metabolism and cellular stress defense mechanisms in amphipods Gammarus lacustris ...

Polar cod Boreogadus saida occurrence is driven by temperature at the margin of its distribution

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract With a warming Arctic, suitable habitat for polar cod Boreogadus saida (Lepechin 1774) is predicted to decrease. We investigated the changes in distribution of polar cod on the southern limit of its distribution in the Atlantic Ocean (around Iceland) during both autumn and spring after a recent period of warming in the area.

Diet of juvenile skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris: Ontogenetic shifts, predator–prey size ratios and mouth gape allometry

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris inhabits Gulf of Mexico drainages, primarily the Mississippi River Basin, and estuarine environments in the Gulf of Mexico. The trophic ecology of the skipjack herring is poorly understood, therefore we quantified the length, mouth gape and gut contents of juvenile skipjack herring from the Mississippi ...

The state of knowledge on four families of Syngnathoidei fishes (Teleostei: Syngnathiformes): Aulostomidae, Centriscidae, Fistulariidae and Solenostomidae

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Divergent exploratory‐avoidant behavioural strategies may drive niche differentiation in juvenile Antarctic fishes

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract We used an ecological niche theory framework integrating physiological and behavioural ecology to understand interspecific differentiation of juveniles of four Antarctic fishes: Trematomus bernacchii, Trematomus pennellii, Trematomus nicolai and Pagothenia borchgrevinki.

Short‐term performance responses of an intertidal fish to sedimentation and warming

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change is altering coastal ecosystems by causing environmental fluctuations, such as increases in temperature and turbidity, which pose major implications for fish physiology and behaviour. Increases in temperature affect fish food intake, swimming capacity and oxygen delivery, while increases in turbidity can impair or enhance prey ...
