Developmental Biology, 2006 This issue of Developmental Biology features articles that constitute a new wave of insights into how a genome interacts with itself (as DNA) and with effectors-proteins and probably RNAs, collectively operating as a kind of "cis-trans" dualism. We learned a test for allelism in genetics class that bore that Latin name but now it comes as a new day for

On artificial parthenogenesis in sea-urchins. [PDF]
Science, 1900 IN No. 277 of SCIENCE, I stated that the MgCl 2 solution used in my experiments on artificial parthenogenesis was a 20/8 n solution. I have since found that the assistant who made the Mg-solution used and who has left the laboratory must have made a mistake as the solution contained only ...

Characterization of sea-urchin fibronectin [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1983 Sea-urchin fibronectin from the ovary of the sea urchin Pseudocentrotus depressus bound to gelatin, fibrin and fibrinogen. After mild digestion of the protein labelled with 125I, a 195 000 Da domain was observed. Sea-urchin fibronectin was aggregated by spermine (1 mM) at neutral pH.

Beyond the Nature-Culture Frontier
Journal of Festive Studies, 2021 In order to challenge the culture–nature dichotomy, this article investigates two festivities centered around fishing and consuming the sea urchin in two different locations: the Suape Bay Ouriçada (Brazil) in the Southern Hemisphere, and the Carry-le ...

Phylogenomics of strongylocentrotid sea urchins [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2013 Strongylocentrotid sea urchins have a long tradition as model organisms for studying many fundamental processes in biology including fertilization, embryology, development and genome regulation but the phylogenetic relationships of the group remain largely unresolved. Although the differing isolating mechanisms of vicariance and rapidly evolving gamete

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Sea cucumber mutable collagenous tissue (MCT) is a remarkable collagen‐based material which can rapidly undergo large changes in stiffness through transiently bound effector proteins. Here, we investigate the hierarchical structure and mechanical response of MCT from Cucumaria frondosa across length scales with a wide range of methods, also exploring ...

Phase Engineering of Nanomaterials (PEN): Evolution, Current Challenges, and Future Opportunities
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review summarizes the synthesis, phase transition, advanced characterization spanning ex situ to in situ and operando techniques, and diverse applications of phase engineering of nanomaterials (PEN). It further outlines key challenges and future opportunities, such as phase stability, architecture control, and artificial intelligence (AI)‐driven ...

eLife, 2021 Identifying the molecular fingerprint of organismal cell types is key for understanding their function and evolution. Here, we use single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to survey the cell types of the sea urchin early pluteus larva, representing an ...
