Pufferfish saxitoxin and tetrodotoxin (TTX) binding protein (PSTBP) is a glycoprotein that we previously isolated from the blood plasma of the pufferfish Takifugu pardalis; this protein was also detected in seven species of the genus Takifugu.

GlobalFestival: Evaluating Real World Interaction on a Spherical Display [PDF]
Spherical displays present compelling opportunities for interaction in public spaces. However, there is little research into how touch interaction should control a spherical surface or how these displays are used in real world settings.

Genome Size Evolution in Pufferfish: A Comparative Analysis of Diodontid and Tetraodontid Pufferfish Genomes [PDF]
Smooth pufferfish of the family Tetraodontidae have the smallest vertebrate genomes yet measured. They have a haploid genome size of ∼400 million bp (Mb), which is almost eight times smaller than the human genome. Given that spiny pufferfish from the sister family Diodontidae and a fish from the outgroup Molidae have genomes twice as large as smooth ...

Inverse relationship between genetic diversity and epigenetic complexity [PDF]
Early studies of molecular evolution revealed a correlation between genetic distance and time of species divergence. This observation provoked the molecular clock hypothesis and in turn the ‘Neutral Theory’, which however remains an ...

Although pufferfish of the family Tetraodontidae contain high levels of tetrodotoxin (TTX) mainly in the liver, some species of pufferfish, boxfish of the family Ostraciidae, and porcupinefish of the family Diodontidae do not.

Verifying Pufferfish Privacy in Hidden Markov Models [PDF]
Pufferfish is a Bayesian privacy framework for designing and analyzing privacy mechanisms. It refines differential privacy, the current gold standard in data privacy, by allowing explicit prior knowledge in privacy analysis. Through these privacy frameworks, a number of privacy mechanisms have been developed in literature.

Investigating diet as the source of tetrodotoxin in Pleurobranchaea maculata [PDF]
The origin of tetrodotoxin (TTX) is highly debated; researchers have postulated either an endogenous or exogenous source with the host accumulating TTX symbiotically or via food chain transmission.

Pufferfishes and Recent Pufferfish Fisheries in Cheju Island, Korea.
A total of 15 species of pufferfishes belonging to the five genera were recognized in the collections of the Cheju National University Museum (CNU), Ocean Research Institute (CNU), the National Cheju Fisheries Laboratory, and the Cheju Folklore and Natural History Museum, and at the Cheju Fish Market, fish culture ponds, and pufferfish restaurants in ...

The present study was undertaken to determine the amounts of tetrodotoxin (TTX) and its analogs (TTXs) in various tissues of toxin-bearing pufferfish (Canthigaster revulata and Takifugu flavipterus) and newt (Cynops pyrrhogaster) using specific ...

Utility Cost of Formal Privacy for Releasing National Employer-Employee Statistics [PDF]
National statistical agencies around the world publish tabular summaries based on combined employer-employee (ER-EE) data. The privacy of both individuals and business establishments that feature in these data are protected by law in most countries ...
