Characterization of pinctada fucata mantle gene 2 (pfmg2) in pearl oyster
Biotechnology and Biotechnological Equipment, 2017 Biomineralization is a complicated process which involves multiple gene products in Pinctada fucata. Here, Pinctada fucata mantle gene 2 (pfmg2) was characterized in P. fucata. The putative PFMG2 protein has a Calponin Homology (CH) domain and an EF hand

Cloning and functional analysis of BMP3 in the pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata)
Journal of Applied Animal Research, 2019 Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are multifunctional secreted cytokines that play important roles in bone formation. In the present study, a homologous BMP3 gene was identified from Pinctada fucata (PfBMP3). PfBMP3 was 2710 bp length, contained 1470 bp

Cloning and characterization of O-xylosyltransferase gene from Pinctada fucata martensii
Journal of Applied Animal Research, 2019 Glycosaminoglycan (GAG), an important component of proteoglycan (PG), was biosynthesized with the initiation by peptide O-xylosyltransferase. O-xylosyltransferase activity was presented as a marker for increased PG synthesis.
