Panulirus interruptus hemocyanin. The elucidation of the complete amino acid sequence of subunit a [PDF]
As a final step in the elucidation of the primary structure of subunit a of Panulirus interruptus hemocyanin (657 residues, Mr 75696 excluding two copper ions and carbohydrate), the amino acid sequence of the largest fragment obtained by limited trypsinolysis was determined.

Evidence that spillover from Marine Protected Areas benefits the spiny lobster (Panulirus interruptus) fishery in southern California [PDF]
Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are designed to enhance biodiversity and ecosystem services. Some MPAs are also established to benefit fisheries through increased egg and larval production, or the spillover of mobile juveniles and adults. Whether spillover

Monoaminergic tone supports conductance correlations and stabilizes activity features in pattern generating neurons of the lobster, Panulirus interruptus [PDF]
Experimental and computational studies demonstrate that different sets of intrinsic and synaptic conductances can give rise to equivalent activity patterns.

Cloning and distribution of Ca2+-activated K+ channels in lobster Panulirus interruptus [PDF]
Large conductance Ca(2+)-activated potassium (BK) channels play important roles in controlling neuronal excitability. We cloned the PISlo gene encoding BK channels from the spiny lobster, Panulirus interruptus. This gene shows 81-98% sequence identity to Slo genes previously found in other organisms. We isolated a number of splice variants of the PISlo

Effect of sulfated carrageenan on the cellular response of the lobster Panulirus interruptus
In the present work, the cellular defense reaction of the spiny lobster Panulirus interruptus was studied after being inoculated with the sulfated polysaccharide carrageenan. Three in vivo experiments were undertaken, where 0.2 mg mL–1 carrageenan were

Primary structure of the neutral carbohydrate chains of hemocyanin from Panulirus interruptus [PDF]
The N-glycosidic carbohydrate chains of Panulirus interruptus hemocyanin, consisting of only mannose and N-acetylglucosamine residues, were liberated by hydrazinolysis of a pronase digest of the purified glycoprotein. The carbohydrate chains were fractionated by high-voltage paper electrophoresis, yielding mainly neutral oligosaccharide-alditols. These

Induced Bactericidal Response in the California Spiny Lobster Panulirus interruptus
SummaryWhen killed gram-negative bacilli (EMB-1) were injected into California spiny lobsters (Panulirus interruptus) an induced bactericidin appeared in the hemo-lymph. This reached a maximum level within 7 days after the primary injection and persisted without further stimulation for at least 60 days.

Spiny lobsters rely on multiple biomineralized exoskeletal predator defenses that may be sensitive to ocean acidification (OA). Compromised mechanical integrity of these defensive structures may tilt predator-prey outcomes, leading to increased mortality
