Reflectance Confocal Microscopy of Skin after the Sting of the Jellyfish Pelagia noctiluca
Jellyfish are aquatic animals of the phylum Cnidaria found in seas all over the world. They are characterized by the presence of cnidocytes, cells that contain a secretory organelle, the cnidocyst, mainly used for predation and defense purposes. An adult

AbstractCnidaria are one of the basal groups within the metazoans. They are divided into the Medusozoa (Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, Staurozoa, and Cubozoa) and the Anthozoa, which are thought to be the basal group within the Cnidaria. Cnidaria together with the Ctenophora are the lowest groups with a nervous system that relies on synaptic conduction and are ...

The complete mitogenome of ghost jellyfish Cyanea nozakii (Cnidaria, Semaeostomeae, Cyaneidae)
The cnidarian jellyfishes are impressive organisms to show animal mitochondrial genomic diversities. Their mitogenome structure is linear and tRNA content has one or two in numbers, which is highly different than other metazoans.

A Broad Survey of Gene Body and Repeat Methylation in Cnidaria Reveals a Complex Evolutionary History [PDF]
DNA methylation, an important component of eukaryotic epigenetics, varies in pattern and function across Metazoa. Notably, bilaterian vertebrates and invertebrates differ dramatically in gene body methylation (GbM).
