Proteomic fingerprinting enables quantitative biodiversity assessments of species and ontogenetic stages in Calanus congeners (Copepoda, Crustacea) from the Arctic Ocean

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 23, Issue 2, Page 382-395, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Species identification is pivotal in biodiversity assessments and proteomic fingerprinting by MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometry has already been shown to reliably identify calanoid copepods to species level. However, MALDI‐TOF data may contain more information beyond mere species identification.

Structure and evolution of neuronal wiring receptors and ligands

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 27-60, January 2023., 2023
Abstract One of the fundamental properties of a neuronal circuit is the map of its connections. The cellular and developmental processes that allow for the growth of axons and dendrites, selection of synaptic targets, and formation of functional synapses use neuronal surface receptors and their interactions with other surface receptors, secreted ...

Proteomic Analysis of the Venom of Jellyfishes Rhopilema esculentum and Sanderia malayensis

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2020
Venomics, the study of biological venoms, could potentially provide a new source of therapeutic compounds, yet information on the venoms from marine organisms, including cnidarians (sea anemones, corals, and jellyfish), is limited.

Powerful proteins from polyp possessing predators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Cnidarians are soft bodied animals possessing complex venom systems which have evolved to allow for the capture of arthropod and vertebrate prey, as well as to defend themselves against such predators.

Identification and Verification of the Blue Pigment in the Edible Jellyfish (Rhopilema esculentum)

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Rhopilema esculentum is widely cultured in Chinese coastal regions and has thousand years of consumption history in China. Despite R. esculentum owns multiple colors (mainly ochre and blue) in aquaculture ponds, little is known about the pigments and color formation. This study identified and verified the blue pigment of R. esculentum.

To Pee, or Not to Pee:A Review on Envenomation and Treatment in European Jellyfish Species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
There is a growing cause for concern on envenoming European species because of jellyfish blooms, climate change and globalization displacing species. Treatment of envenomation involves the prevention of further nematocyst release and relieving local and ...

Characterization of peptides derived from marine organisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Casey Schmidt studied peptides from marine organisms in a range of different aspects focusing on their potential use as drug leads. She investigated a previously described peptide from the venom of a cone snail and the relationship between its three ...

Chironex fleckeri (Box Jellyfish) Venom Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2014
The box jellyfish Chironex fleckeri produces extremely potent and rapid-acting venom that is harmful to humans and lethal to prey. Here, we describe the characterization of two C. fleckeri venom proteins, CfTX-A (∼40 kDa) and CfTX-B (∼42 kDa), which were isolated from C.
