Sea Anemone Toxins: A Structural Overview [PDF]
Sea anemones produce venoms of exceptional molecular diversity, with at least 17 different molecular scaffolds reported to date. These venom components have traditionally been classified according to pharmacological activity and amino acid sequence.

Molecular tuning of sea anemone stinging. [PDF]
Abstract Jellyfish and sea anemones fire single-use, venom-covered barbs to immobilize prey or predators. We previously showed that the anemone Nematostella vectensis uses a specialized voltage-gated calcium (Ca V ) channel to trigger stinging in ...

A ‘sea anemone’ onychomatricoma
Here we describe the presentation, identification, operation details and subsequent histological analysis of an onychomatricoma, a benign rare subungual tumour that is often misidentified and diagnosed.No public involvement to declare, patient was consented for surgical excision and provided verbal consent to photography and its use in publishing.One ...

Sea Anemones, Actinoporins, and Cholesterol
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.

The blastoporal organiser of a sea anemone [PDF]
SummaryIn 1924 Hilde Mangold and Hans Spemann transplanted the dorsal blastopore lip of an amphibian embryo to a host embryo's ventral side. This experiment revealed that the dorsal blastopore lip can act as an ‘organiser’ to induce a secondary body axis [1].

Fluorescence of Sea Anemones [PDF]
I NOTICED recently, upon the rocks in Torbay, a number of sea anemones the tentacles of which appeared to fluoresce in sunlight. The effect is limited to the tentacles, for they appear to have a pinkish-brown colour by transmitted light, which changes to vivid green when viewed by light reflected from their surface.

IN 1904 Dr. J. R. Ashworth and I published in the Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (vol. xxv., p. 1) observations on aged individuals of Sagartia troglodytes then and still in the possession of Miss Jessie Nelson in Edinburgh. After eight years these anemones are still in excellent health, having been in captivity for considerably more ...

On the Nematocysts of Sea Anemones [PDF]
The main object of this paper has been to determine whether or no it is possible to differentiate the species and genera of Actinians by employing as criteria the characteristics of their nematocysts.

WHILST in some branches of science, especially physics, there are so many workers in the field that monographs can be continually revised, in others many years must pass by before an expert can bring our knowledge up-to-date. Dr. T. A. Stephenson, one of the two leading workers on anemones at the present time, is to be congratulated on his effort to ...
