Single cell sequencing revealed AAG, an energy regulatory protein targeting to glycogen, was highly expressed in jellyfish stings‐induced CF patients. We postulated AAG could increase glycogen metabolism, protecting against jellyfish stings‐induced CF.

Not all jellyfish are equal: isotopic evidence for inter- and intraspecific variation in jellyfish trophic ecology [PDF]
Jellyfish are highly topical within studies of pelagic food-webs and there is a growing realisation that their role is more complex than once thought.

THE TOXICITY OF PHYSALIA NEMATOCYSTS
The general composition and conditions of reactivity of the nematocysts and nematocyst contents of Physalia are described. A method is presented for isolation of nematocysts without contamination by other tentacular material. The nematocyst content appears to be a highly labile protein complex.

Fluid Dynamics of Ballistic Strategies in Nematocyst Firing
Nematocysts are stinging organelles used by members of the phylum Cnidaria (e.g., jellyfish, anemones, hydrozoans) for a variety of important functions including capturing prey and defense. Nematocysts are the fastest-known accelerating structures in the

Phage‐Templated Synthesis of Targeted Photoactive 1D‐Thiophene Nanoparticles
The capsid of a refactored M13 phage is decorated with oligothiophene derivatives, transforming the viral structure in a targeted 1D‐thiophene nanoparticle. The unique properties of the bacteriophages (protein‐based structure, possibility to be genetically engineered, tropism for specific cell types) are leveraged on to biofabricate a novel hybrid ...

Prey Resource Utilization by Coexistent Hydromedusae from Friday Harbor, Washington, USA [PDF]
Prey selection patterns were quantified for a sympatric group of hydromedusae from Friday Harbor, WA. Selection patterns varied between species, but were largely replicable between sample dates and resembled dietary patterns found in similar studies from

Three species of intertidal sea anemones (Anthozoa: Actiniidae) from the Tropical Pacific : Description of anthopleura buddemeieri, n. sp., with remarks on anthopleura asiatica and gyractis sesere [PDF]
A new species of sea anemone, Anthopleura buddemeieri Fautin, is described from Fiji and Papua New Guinea. Occurring high in the intertidal zone, a typical individual has a column rich brown in color and marked with longitudinal rows of red spots ...

Dynamic mimicry in an Indo-Malayan octopus [PDF]
During research dives in Indonesia (Sulawesi and Bali), we filmed a distinctive long-armed octopus, which is new to science. Diving over 24 h periods revealed that the 'mimic octopus' emerges during daylight hours to forage on sand substrates in full ...
