The Development and Growth ofCiona
Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1947Ciona intestinalis(L.) is probably the most cosmopolitan species of ascidians and has long been of general interest. The adult morphology has been well described in monographic form by Roule (1884), the physiology of the heart and circulation by Heine (1902), Enriques (1904) and Wolf (1932), of the nervous system by Magnus (1902), Hecht (1918, 1926 ...

Germline Transgenesis in Ciona
2018Transgenesis is an indispensable method for elucidating the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying biological phenomena. In Ciona, transgenic lines that have a transgene insertion in their genomes have been created. The transgenic lines are valuable because they express reporter genes in a nonmosaic manner.

Comparative morpho-physiological analysis between Ciona robusta and Ciona savignyi
Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2016Abstract The seasquirt Ciona robusta and its co-generic Ciona savignyi , are two long-divergent species, sharing the same habitat and competing for the same spaces and resources. Their very similar morphology has been responsible for the misidentification of the two organisms, and, consequently, for the underestimation of their geographic ...

Enhancer trap is a famous application of transposons. This method is useful for the creation of marker transgenic lines that express a reporter gene in tissue- or organ-specific manner, characterization of enhancers in the genome, finding novel patterns of gene expression, and mutagenesis.

SL RNA Genes of the Ascidian TunicatesCiona intestinalisandCiona savignyi
Zoological Science, 2010We characterized by bioinformatics the trans-spliced leader donor RNA (SL RNA) genes of two ascidians, Ciona intestinalis and Ciona savignyi. The Ciona intestinalis genome contains approximately 670 copies of the SL RNA gene, principally on a 264-bp tandemly repeated element. Fluorescent in-situ hybridization mapped most of the repeats to a single site

Gene-regulatory networks in the Ciona embryos
Briefings in Functional Genomics and Proteomics, 2009Ascidians belong to the subphylum Urochordata or Tunicata, which is the sister group of the vertebrates. The simple architecture of the ascidian larva represents the basic chordate body plan. Recent analyses have shown many instances of developmental mechanisms conserved during evolution, while these studies have also revealed a much larger number of ...

Histochemical studies of cholinesterases in Ciona intestinalis
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology, 1966Abstract 1. 1. The cholinergicity of tunicates is at present controversial. The results of this study on Ciona intestinalis based on Koelle's histochemical technique suggest that acetylcholinesterase is present in “detritus” found in the gut lumen and in the sinus of the neural gland. 2. 2.

A lasp family protein of Ciona intestinalis
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 2008Lasp-1 and lasp-2 are actin-binding proteins that contain a LIM domain, nebulin repeats, and an SH3 domain and they are significantly conserved in mammalian and avian. Lasp-1 is widely expressed in nonmuscle tissues and lasp-2 is specifically expressed in the brain.

Experiments on Alytes and Ciona
Nature, 1923THOSE who have followed this discussion may be interested in its subsequent course. I lately received the following letter, undated, from Dr. H. Przibram, director of the Versuchsanstalt, to which I have made the reply subjoined.
