Sphingolipids of Asteroidea and Holothuroidea: Structures and Biological Activities
Sphingolipids are complex lipids widespread in nature as structural components of biomembranes. Commonly, the sphingolipids of marine organisms differ from those of terrestrial animals and plants.

Antarctic and Sub-Antarctic Asteroidea database [PDF]
The present dataset is a compilation of georeferenced occurrences of asteroids (Echinodermata: Asteroidea) in the Southern Ocean. Occurrence data south of 45°S latitude were mined from various sources together with information regarding the taxonomy, the

Mitogenomics provides new insights into the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary history of deep-sea sea stars (Asteroidea) [PDF]
The deep sea (> 200 m) is considered as the largest and most remote biome, which characterized by low temperatures, low oxygen level, scarce food, constant darkness, and high hydrostatic pressure.

Non-Invasive Underwater DNA Sampling Illuminates Red Sea Echinoderm Diversity. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Species‐specific non‐invasive underwater DNA sampling remains largely understudied for marine invertebrates despite its potential to revolutionise biodiversity assessment of vulnerable species or fragile ecosystems. Comprehensive species‐specific DNA barcode databases are essential for accurate species identification and taxonomic assignment ...

Contrasting Dispersal Patterns of Co-Occurring Benthic Sister Sea Star <i>Labidiaster</i> Species (Asteroidea: Heliasteridae) in the Southern Ocean. [PDF]
This study aimed to employ genetic methods to analyze the phylogeny, species boundaries, population structure, demographic history and genetic connectivity for Southern Ocean sea stars, Labidiaster radiosus and L. annulatus. A sister‐species relationship was revealed between L. radiosus and L.

Relaxin-like Gonad-Stimulating Peptides in Asteroidea [PDF]
Starfish relaxin-like gonad-stimulating peptide (RGP) is the first identified peptide hormone with gonadotropin-like activity in invertebrates. RGP is a heterodimeric peptide, comprising A and B chains with disulfide cross-linkages. Although RGP had been
