Structures of sea anemone toxins

Toxicon, 2009
Sea anemones produce a variety of toxic peptides and proteins, including many ion channel blockers and modulators, as well as potent cytolysins. This review describes the structures that have been determined to date for the major classes of peptide and protein toxins.

Narcotising Sea Anemones

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1989
Many techniques have been devised to overcome certain problems encountered when narcotising actiniarians. From these a few have been selected as being at least partly successful. Further modifications to these narcotising methods have been introduced in order to block more effectively the nervous pathways responsible for secondary contraction reactions.

Sea anemone dermatitis is not uncommon, although in the literature of the past 40 years there are only 14 reports. In the child it is due to contact while sitting on rocks just below the surface or during underwater exploration; it may also be due to careless play in the child that knows the damaging effects of this coelenterate (1).

They belong to the Anthozoa, one of four extant classes (Figure 1.1) within the phylum Cnidaria (tentacle-bearing Radiata having

Digestion in sea anemones

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 1959
A sea anemone, normally a passive-looking animal, reacts to suitable food-stuffs by a series of fairly complicated activities. When its tentacles encounter solid food there is, first of all, a discharge of cnidae, which poison living prey and adhere to the food mass.

Facilitation in Sea Anemones

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1945
ABSTRACT The action of a number of drugs which affect the neuromuscular systems of vertebrates has been examined on the sea anemone, Calliactis parasitica. In contrast to their action in vertebrates, no drugs directly cause contraction in the muscles of the anemone.

Evidence of dopa in the nerves of sea anemones

Journal of Neural Transmission, 1983
An analysis of the presence of catechol-derivatives in the sea anemones Metridium senile and Tealia felina, made with the aid of high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), established the presence of dopa, 5-OH-dopa, and 5-S-cysteinyldopa. In addition, 2-S-cysteinyldopa and 2.5-diSS-cysteinyldopa occurred in Metridium.
