Diffusion tubes: a method for the mass culture of ctenophores and other pelagic marine invertebrates [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 The culture of pelagic marine invertebrates, especially the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi, has been demonstrated in past studies dating back to the 1960s; however, the mass culture of delicate pelagic invertebrates has remained elusive. By using a pair of

Evidence for de novo Biosynthesis of the Luminous Substrate Coelenterazine in Ctenophores
iScience, 2020 Summary: Coelenterazine is a key substrate involved in marine bioluminescence which is used for light-production by at least nine phyla. Some luminous animals, such as the hydromedusa Aequorea, lack the ability to produce coelenterazine endogenously and ...

Quantifying the feeding behavior and trophic impact of a widespread oceanic ctenophore
Scientific Reports, 2023 Oceanic ctenophores are widespread predators on pelagic zooplankton. While data on coastal ctenophores often show strong top-down predatory impacts in their ecosystems, differing morphologies, prey capture mechanisms and behaviors of oceanic species ...

Conserved novel ORFs in the mitochondrial genome of the ctenophore Beroe forskalii [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 To date, five ctenophore species’ mitochondrial genomes have been sequenced, and each contains open reading frames (ORFs) that if translated have no identifiable orthologs. ORFs with no identifiable orthologs are called unidentified reading frames (URFs).

Occurrence of Isopenicillin-N-Synthase Homologs in Bioluminescent Ctenophores and Implications for Coelenterazine Biosynthesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The biosynthesis of the luciferin coelenterazine has remained a mystery for decades. While not all organisms that use coelenterazine appear to make it themselves, it is thought that ctenophores are a likely producer.
