Contribution of Maternal and Paternal Transmission to Bacterial Colonization in Nematostella vectensis. [PDF]
Front Microbiol, 2021 Microbial communities confer multiple beneficial effects to their multicellular hosts. To evaluate the evolutionary and ecological implications of the animal-microbe interactions, it is essential to understand how bacterial colonization is secured and maintained during the transition from one generation to the next.

Seawater carbonate chemistry and reproduction and offspring performance of Nematostella vectensis [PDF]
, 2023 Ocean acidification (OA) resulting from anthropogenic CO2 emissions is impairing the reproduction of marine organisms. While parental exposure to OA can protect offspring via carryover effects, this phenomenon is poorly understood in many marine ...

Unexpected Distribution of Chitin and Chitin Synthase across Soft-Bodied Cnidarians
Biomolecules, 2023 Cnidarians are commonly recognized as sea jellies, corals, or complex colonies such as the Portuguese man-of-war. While some cnidarians possess rigid internal calcareous skeletons (e.g., corals), many are soft-bodied.

Doublecortin-like kinase is required for cnidocyte development in Nematostella vectensis. [PDF]
Neural DevAbstractThe complex morphology of neurons requires precise control of their microtubule cytoskeleton. This is achieved by microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) that regulate the assembly and stability of microtubules, and transport of molecules and vesicles along them.

The p53 tumor suppressor-like protein nvp63 mediates selective germ cell death in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 Here we report the identification and molecular function of the p53 tumor suppressor-like protein nvp63 in a non-bilaterian animal, the starlet sea anemone Nematostella vectensis. So far, p53-like proteins had been found in bilaterians only.

Molecular tuning of sea anemone stinging
eLife, 2023 Jellyfish and sea anemones fire single-use, venom-covered barbs to immobilize prey or predators. We previously showed that the anemone Nematostella vectensis uses a specialized voltage-gated calcium (CaV) channel to trigger stinging in response to ...

A developmental role for the chromatin-regulating CoREST complex in the cnidarian Nematostella vectensis. [PDF]
BMC Biol, 2022 Abstract Background Chromatin-modifying proteins are key players in the regulation of development and cell differentiation in animals. Most chromatin modifiers, however, predate the evolution of animal multicellularity, and how they gained new functions and became integrated into the regulatory
