, 2016 4.7. Cloning and expression of K. brevis EH1 Contig MGID2034061 of a K. brevis EST library (Lidie et al., 2005) was synthesized (after optimization of codon usage for E. coli expression) and cloned into pUC 57 by Genescript. The insert was subcloned into pET30a+ vector for protein expression: Specific primers (Forward: CACAATCATATGCCGCTGACGGA ...

Patterns in evolutionary origins of heme, chlorophyll a and isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthetic pathways suggest non-photosynthetic periods prior to plastid replacements in dinoflagellates [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background The ancestral dinoflagellate most likely established a peridinin-containing plastid, which have been inherited in the extant photosynthetic descendants.

Karenia brevis subsp. homogenate
, 2016 4.3. Preparation of K. brevis homogenate K. brevis culture (200 ml) was concentrated by centrifugation (5 min at 450× g) and the supernatant discarded. The cells were resuspended in phosphate buffer (800 Ll, 50 mM pH 7.0) and vortexed for 1 min. This suspension was centrifuged (14,000× g for 10 min) and the pellet was discarded.

Interaction of a dinoflagellate neurotoxin with voltage-activated ion channels in a marine diatom [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background The potent neurotoxins produced by the harmful algal bloom species Karenia brevis are activators of sodium voltage-gated channels (VGC) in animals, resulting in altered channel kinetics and membrane hyperexcitability.

Horizontal gene transfer in chromalveolates
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007 Background Horizontal gene transfer (HGT), the non-genealogical transfer of genetic material between different organisms, is considered a potentially important mechanism of genome evolution in eukaryotes. Using phylogenomic analyses of expressed sequence

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Red tide blooms caused by the toxic dinoflagellate Karenia brevis are natural disturbance events that occur regularly along Florida’s west coast, often resulting in massive fish kills and marine mammal, seabird, and sea turtle mortalities.

Localization of polyketide synthase encoding genes to the toxic dinoflagellate Karenia brevis [PDF]
Phytochemistry, 2005 Karenia brevis is a toxic marine dinoflagellate endemic to the Gulf of Mexico. Blooms of this harmful alga cause fish kills, marine mammal mortalities and neurotoxic shellfish poisonings. These harmful effects are attributed to a suite of polyketide secondary metabolites known as the brevetoxins.
