The cytoplast: A unit structure in chromatophores

Cell, 1982
We followed the translocation of identifiable pigment granules in living erythrophores through normal aggregation and dispersion and observed that they always return in dispersion to the same location relative to the whole pigment complex. This is interpreted to mean that each granule occupies a fixed position within a unit structure, the cytoplast ...

Mechanics of the Cephalopod Chromatophore Layer: Structural Characterization of Cephalopod Chromatophores

ASME 2011 Summer Bioengineering Conference, Parts A and B, 2011
Cephalopods are a class of mollusks that include cuttlefish, octopus, and squid1 that are capable of adaptive display capabilities. The cephalopods unique adaptable appearance is enabled by a sequence of thin layers in their soft and stretchable skin2 that allows them to quickly change color (Figure 1a), pattern, iridescence and texture (with the ...

Conservation of the chromatophore pigment response

Journal of Applied Toxicology, 2010
AbstractToxicant sensing technology has evolved to include biological sensors, such as cell‐based biosensors, which rely on viable cells to convey a measurable physiological signal. Chromatophores are a class of pigment cells that have been investigated as cell‐based biosensors.

Proteins exposed at the surface of chromatophores of Rhodospirillum rubrum. The orientation of isolated chromatophores

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 1978
The exposure of proteins at the surface of isolated chromatophores (i.e., the cytoplasmic face of intracytoplasmic membranes) of Rhodospirillum rubrum was studied by proteolysis as well as by enzymatic iodination with 125I. Analyses were performed after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of chromatophore proteins solubilized with sodium dodecyl sulfate.
