Structural analysis of an Asterias rubens peptide indicates the presence of a disulfide‐directed β‐hairpin fold

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 3, Page 415-426, March 2025.
Sea stars have remarkable regenerative capabilities. A peptide, KASH2, identified in the biofluid of the common sea star Asterias rubens appears to be involved with the wound‐healing response in the organism. Here, we show the 3D structure of KASH2 adopts a disulfide‐directed β‐hairpin fold, a fold only previously found in arachnids, and does not show ...

Linking Water to the Bottom: eDNA Study of Benthic Invertebrates and Invasive Species in the Venice Lagoon

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of superficial water samples to assess benthic invertebrate biodiversity in the Venice Lagoon. Sampling from surface water revealed 80 taxonomic units, mostly benthic species, including several invasive ones, with significant spatial and seasonal variations in community composition.

Restoring Halodule uninervis: evaluating planting methods and biodiversity

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 3, March 2025.
Seagrass provides a crucial habitat for numerous marine species and serves as a vital food source for endangered species, like dugongs. While extensive research on restoration has been conducted on certain temperate and slow‐growing climax seagrass species, limited attention has been given to tropical pioneer species.

Chemotaxis of Arbacia punctulata spermatozoa to resact, a peptide from the egg jelly layer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Resact, a peptide of known sequence isolated from the jelly layer of Arbacia punctulata eggs, is a potent chemoattractant for A. punctulata spermatozoa. The chemotactic response is concentration dependent, is abolished by pretreatment of the spermatozoa ...
