Biomphalaria glabrata metallothionein
, 2017 The wild-type metallothionein (MT) of the freshwater snail Biomphalaria glabrata and a natural allelic mutant of it in which a lysine residue was replaced by an asparagine residue, were recombinantly expressed and analyzed for their metal-binding features with respect to Cd, Zn and Cu, applying spectroscopic and mass-spectrometric methods. In addition,

Hemocytes of mollusc Biomphalaria glabrata (Gastropoda, Pulmonata)
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2018 We studied hemocytes of Biomphalaria glabrata with the use of light and transmission microscopy and flow cytometry with LysoTracker and SYTO62. These specific fluorescent dyes make it possible to distinguish cells differing in the amount of lysosomes and in transcriptional activity. We found that hemocytes of B.
