Preliminary Investigation and Sequence of the Hyaluronidase Gene in the Venom of the Atlantic Sea Nettle (Chrysaora quinquecirrha) [PDF]
Jellyfish cnidocysts contain many different venom proteins, each with unique functions that combine synergistically to achieve a more robust and toxic fluid. One of these proteins is hyaluronidase (EC 3.2.1.35), an enzyme that breaks down hyaluronic acid,

Observing the Location and Orientation of Nematocysts Through Aeolidiella Stephaniae [PDF]
The anemone species Aiptasia is a nuisance pest that can quickly out-compete many species in a coral reef aquarium. The aeolid nudibranch Berghia verrucicornis, now officially known as Aeolidiella stephanieae, consumes only anemones of the Aiptasia ...

The Roles of Ca2+ and cAMP in the Nematocyst Discharge of the Sea Anemone Tentacle [PDF]
The phylum Cnidarians are aquatic animals, including jellyfish, hydra, sea anemones, and corals. They are the simplest metazoans having a nervous system and are diploblastic.

Chemoreceptors Regulate Discharge of Microbasic p-mastigophores in the Sea Anemone, AIPTASIA PALLIDA [PDF]
Recently, using cnida-mediated measurements of adhesive force, Thorington and Hessinger (1984, 1988a, b) identified two different chemoreceptors involved in triggering cnida discharge on the tentacles of the sea anemone, Aiptasia pallida.

Neuroactive compounds induce larval settlement in the scleractinian coral Leptastrea purpurea [PDF]
Settlement of pelagic coral larvae is commonly induced by chemical cues that originate from biofilms and coralline algae. These natural settlement cues initiate signal pathways leading to attachment and metamorphosis of the coral larva.
