Byssal re‐attachment behavior in the winged pearl oyster Pteria penguin in response to low salinity levels [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, 2021
The effect of low salinity levels on byssal re‐attachment behavior in Pteria penguin juveniles was observed in the laboratory. Juvenile pearl oysters were submerged in seawater blended to 8.0, 12.0, 16.0, 20.0, 24.0, 28.0, and 32.0 salinity levels for a ...

Diversified Biomineralization Roles of Pteria penguin Pearl Shell Lectins as Matrix Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Previously, we isolated jacalin-related lectins termed PPL2, PPL3 (PPL3A, 3B and 3C) and PPL4 from the mantle secretory fluid of Pteria penguin (Mabe) pearl shell. They showed the sequence homology with the plant lectin family, jacalin-related β-prism fold lectins (JRLs).
