Crustacean and Mollusc Shell Proteins: Origin, Structure, and Functionality

Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Crustacean and molluscan processing as seafood generates a significant amount of shell waste annually, owing to the dense, mineral‐rich composition of the exoskeleton. Although valorization efforts have mostly focused on chitin and chitosan, the protein fraction remains underutilized despite its prominent nutritional, functional, and sensory ...

Autophagy in Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas [PDF]

, 2014
Mass mortality outbreaks of Pacific oysters, Crassostrea gigas, are reported in different areas around the world affecting seriously the shellfish aquaculture sector. Two pathogens are associated with these mortality outbreaks, ostreid herpesvirus 1 (OsHV-1) and Vibrio aestuarianus.

Alien species alert: Crassostrea gigas (Pacific oyster) [PDF]

, 2009
The Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas, Thunberg, 1793) is one of 20 species in the genus Crassostrea. Although native to the Japan/Korea region, C. gigas is a hardy species that has been introduced to a number of countries worldwide, including the US, Canada, the UK, France, Korea, China, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, and South America, mainly ...

Revealing the Diverse Allergenic Protein Repertoire of Six Widely Consumed Crab Species: A Species‐Specific Allergen in King Crab

Allergy, Volume 81, Issue 5, Page 1500-1521, May 2026.
This study comprehended the allergen profiles of six edible crab species using proteomic and transcriptomic analyses and identified 11 putative allergens. King crab has a distinct protein and allergen profile, with the discovery of malate dehydrogenase as a novel king crab‐specific allergen registered as Para c 11.

Interspecific facilitation, elevation, and site influence survival and growth for intertidal Ostrea angasi restoration

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 4, May 2026.
Abstract Introduction The flat oyster Ostrea angasi previously formed extensive reefs throughout temperate regions of Australia. These reefs were overharvested and destroyed after European colonization and have been functionally extinct for >150 years. While large‐scale subtidal O.

The Evolution of Giant Clam Science: From Foundational Studies to Emerging Frontiers

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
This review synthesizes nearly two centuries of giant clam research, identifying dominant themes, knowledge gaps, and emerging opportunities. Ecology, physiology, aquaculture, genomics, and biomineralization dominate the field, whereas anatomy and biotechnology remain underexplored. Future progress requires stronger integration of genomics, physiology,

Gleaning the Rocky Shore? 2500 Years of Coastal Resource Use at Red Bluff 1, GunaiKurnai Country, SE Australia

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 128-161, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

Wild populations of Pacific oysters (Magallana gigas) emerge during the blob heatwave in south Puget Sound, Washington USA

Frontiers in Marine Science
Marine heatwaves have altered ecosystems globally, including changing community composition and facilitating the spread of invasive species. In south Puget Sound, Washington (USA), non-native Pacific oysters (Magallana gigas) have been farmed extensively

Cryopreservation of Pacific Oyster, Crassostrea gigas Sperm

The Korean Journal of Malacology, 2013
This study aims to find out a suitable cryoprotective agent (CPA) for cryopreservation and its optimum concentration in order to conduct planned artificial seed production of Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas and to preserve superior sperm. For this, we tried to understand toxicity and the effect of cryopreservation by CPA type and concentrations first

Functional Analysis on Shelk2 of Pacific Oyster [PDF]

, 2018
Shelk2, a novel shell matrix protein from the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is reported to be involved in shell biosynthesis of the prismatic layer. Results of RNAi experiment on shelk2 showed that Shelk2 has a key role in shell regeneration. When dsRNA of shelk2 was injected into the adductor muscle of Pacific oyster, the prismatic layer did not ...
