Species DiversityAn association comprising a solitary ascidian attached to the dorsal surface of a holothurian was discovered in 2022 on the bathyal seafloor (ca. 2000 m depth) of the western slope of the Chishima (Kuril-Kamchatka) Trench, off the southeastern coast of ...

Upregulated transcription of phenoloxidase genes in the pharynx and endostyle of Ciona intestinalis in response to LPS [PDF]
, 2015 We investigated the role of phenoloxidases (POs) in ascidians inflammatory reaction, a components of a copper-containing protein family involved in invertebrate immune system.

Protostigmata in ascidians [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Containing Papers of a Biological Character, 1913 It has been showed that at a certain stage in the ontogeny of Ascidians there is usually a definite number of stigmata or gill slits, which are elongated dorsorventrally and arranged in a longitudinal series on each side of the pharynx. To these the name protostigmata was given by Garstang in 1892.

The distribution of Dishevelled in convergently extending mesoderm [PDF]
, 2013 Convergent extension (CE) is a conserved morphogenetic movement that drives axial lengthening of the primary body axis and depends on the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway.

Fibronectin Contributes To Notochord Intercalation In The Invertebrate Chordate, Ciona Intestinalis [PDF]
, 2016 Background: Genomic analysis has upended chordate phylogeny, placing the tunicates as the sister group to the vertebrates. This taxonomic rearrangement raises questions about the emergence of a tunicate/vertebrate ancestor.

The integrins of the urochordate provide novel insights into the molecular evolution of the vertebrate integrin family [PDF]
, 2005 Background: Integrins are a functionally significant family of metazoan cell surface adhesion receptors. The receptors are dimers composed of an alpha and a beta chain.

Bijdragen tot de Dierkunde, 1924 Through the kindness of Dr. C. J. VAN DER HORST of Amsterdam, I have had the opportunity of examining and reporting on the collection of ascidians that he made at Curaçao, Dutch West Indies, in April and May, 1920. The collection represents only the littoral fauna of the island; all the specimens appear to have been obtained in very shallow water on ...

Ascidian gene-expression profiles.
Genome biology, 2002 With the advent of gene-expression profiling, a large number of genes can now be investigated simultaneously during critical stages of development. This approach will be particularly informative in studies of ascidians, basal chordates whose genomes and embryology are uniquely suited for mapping developmental gene networks.

Oceanologia, 2019 Summary: Ascidians are one of the dominant marine sedentary filter feeders recorded more frequently as introduced species than other taxa. It is renowned that artificial structures offer novel niches to the non-native species.

The purpose was to prepare Prochloron photosynthetic membranes for the isolation of the two major chlorophyll-proteins, the P700-chlorophyll a-protein and the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-protein, using SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.
