Structures of five new carotenoids from the oyster Crassostrea gigas.
Five new minor carotenoids, 1-5, were isolated from the oyster Crassostrea gigas. The structure of 1 was determined to be (3S,5R,6R,6'S)-3,5,6'-trihydroxy-3'-oxo-6,7-didehydro-5,6-dihydro-10,11,20-trinor-beta,epsilon-caroten-19',11'-olide 3-acetate by detailed analyses of NMR and CD data. The structures of the other carotenoids, 2-5, were also determined in a similar manner. In the FAB-MS/MS of...
متن کاملMolecular Cloning and Characterization of Full-Length cDNA of Calmodulin Gene from Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas
The shell of the pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata) mainly comprises aragonite whereas that of the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is mainly calcite, thereby suggesting the different mechanisms of shell formation between above two mollusks. Calmodulin (CaM) is an important gene for regulating the uptake, transport, and secretion of calcium during the process of shell formation in pearl oyster. I...
متن کاملIdentification of the Molecular Clockwork of the Oyster Crassostrea gigas
Molecular clock system constitutes the origin of biological rhythms that allow organisms to anticipate cyclic environmental changes and adapt their behavior and physiology. Components of the molecular clock are largely conserved across a broad range of species but appreciable diversity in clock structure and function is also present especially in invertebrates. The present work aimed at identif...
متن کاملFunctional characterisation of phagocytes in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas
Invertebrates lack canonical adaptive immunity and mainly rely on innate immune system to fight against pathogens. The phagocytes, which could engulf and kill microbial pathogens, are likely to be of great importance and have to undertake significant roles in invertebrate immune defense. In the present study, flow cytometry combined with histological and lectin staining was employed to characte...
متن کاملCerium Inhibits the Cadmium Uptake of Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas
Ce is a potential antagonist of Cd due to their similar ionic radius. Its effect on the bioaccumulation of Cd in pacific oyster Crassostreagigaswas explored through laboratory experiments. The oysters were exposed to 5, 10 and 25 μmol/LCe(NO3)3 in the presence of 25 μg/L Cd 2+ (0.22 μmol/L) for 12 days and the concentrations of Cd, Ca, Zn as well as Cu were indicated in the whole soft tissues a...
