HOX gene complement and expression in the planarian Schmidtea mediterranea [PDF]

EvoDevo, 2016
Background Freshwater planarians are well known for their regenerative abilities. Less well known is how planarians maintain spatial patterning in long-lived adult animals or how they re-pattern tissues during regeneration.

Extracellular Vesicles Derived From Regenerating Tissue Promote Stem Cell Proliferation in the Planarian <i>Schmidtea mediterranea</i>. [PDF]

J Extracell Biol
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are secreted nanoparticles composed of a lipid bilayer that carry lipid, protein, and nucleic acid cargo between cells as a mode of intercellular communication.

Transcription Factors Active in the Anterior Blastema of Schmidtea mediterranea [PDF]

Biomolecules, 2021
Regeneration, the restoration of body parts after injury, is quite widespread in the animal kingdom. Species from virtually all Phyla possess regenerative abilities. Human beings, however, are poor regenerators.

Metabacillus schmidteae sp. nov., Cultivated from Planarian Schmidtea mediterranea Microbiota [PDF]

Microbiology Research, 2021
Taxonogenomics combines phenotypic assays and genomic analysis as a means of characterizing novel strains. We used this strategy to study Marseille-P9898T strain, an aerobic, motile, Gram-negative, spore-forming, and rod-shaped bacterium isolated from ...

Genome-Wide Analysis of Polyadenylation Events in Schmidtea mediterranea [PDF]

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
In eukaryotes, 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs) play important roles in regulating posttranscriptional gene expression. The 3′UTR is defined by regulated cleavage/polyadenylation of the pre-mRNA.

Dynein assembly factor with WD repeat domains 1 (DAW1) is required for the function of motile cilia in the planarian Schmidtea mediterranea. [PDF]

Dev Growth Differ, 2020
Motile cilia propel directed cell movements and sweep fluids across the surface of tissues. Orthologs of Dynein Assembly Factor with WD Repeat Domains 1 (DAW1) support normal ciliary beating by enhancing delivery of dynein complexes to axonemal ...
