Anemonefish use sialic acid metabolism as Trojan horse to avoid giant sea anemone stinging [PDF]
BMC BiologyBackground Anemonefish association with sea anemones is a prime example of mutualistic symbiosis. These fish live inside the sea anemone, benefitting from the protection of its toxic nematocysts, and in return, protect the anemone from its own predators.

Identification, diversity and domain structure analysis of mucin and mucin-like genes in sea anemone Actinia tenebrosa [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Background Mucins are part of the glycoprotein family and the main proteinaceous component of mucus. The sea anemone species, Actinia tenebrosa (Phylum Cnidaria) produce large amounts of mucus, which have not been studied in detail.

Sea Anemones, Actinoporins, and Cholesterol
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Spanish or Spanish-speaking scientists represent a remarkably populated group within the scientific community studying pore-forming proteins. Some of these scientists, ourselves included, focus on the study of actinoporins, a fascinating group of metamorphic pore-forming proteins produced within the venom of several sea anemones.

Structural and functional analysis of Hydra Actinoporin-Like Toxin 1 (HALT-1)
Scientific Reports, 2021 Actinoporins are a family of α-pore-forming toxins (α-PFTs) that have been identified in sea anemones. Recently, a freshwater Hydra Actinoporin-Like Toxin (HALT) gene family was found in Hydra magnipapillata.
