Structure and function of octopine dehydrogenase of Pecten maximus (great scallop).
This enzymic reaction was discovered in 1959 in some marine invertebrates (Thoai & Robin, 1959). ODH was first isolated from Pecfen maximus (Thoai ef al., 1969). Since then this enzyme has been purified from other invertebrates (Gade, 1980). In molluscs capable of rapid locomotion, or short-term bursts of muscular activity, ODH performs a function similar to that of lactate dehydrogenase in ver...
متن کاملThe quality of great scallop (Pecten maximus) sperm after thawing.
Most publications devoted to the cryopreservation of mollusc sperm have focused on the definition of technical protocols, avoiding the description of sperm quality after thawing. The present study investigated the effects of cryopreservation on sperm quality in the great scallop. Wild scallop were fished during the natural spawning period and conditioned in the hatchery before use. Sperm sample...

We developed a full life-cycle bioenergetic model for the great scallop P. maximus relying on the concepts of the Dynamic Energy Budget (DEB) theory. The covariation method was implemented to estimate the parameters of a standard deb model. Such models are able to predict various metabolic processes from a food availability marker and temperature in the environment. However, suspension-feeders ...
متن کاملInsights into the Mechanism of Ligand Binding to Octopine Dehydrogenase from Pecten maximus by NMR and Crystallography
Octopine dehydrogenase (OcDH) from the adductor muscle of the great scallop, Pecten maximus, catalyzes the NADH dependent, reductive condensation of L-arginine and pyruvate to octopine, NAD(+), and water during escape swimming and/or subsequent recovery. The structure of OcDH was recently solved and a reaction mechanism was proposed which implied an ordered binding of NADH, L-arginine and final...
متن کاملPolymorphic microsatellite loci isolated from the great scallop, Pecten maximus (Bivalvia: Pectinidae)
We isolated and characterized nine polymorphic microsatellite loci from the great scallop ( Pecten maximus ) as part of an attempt to better understand the population–genetic structure of this species. Levels of genetic diversity were assessed in 32 scallops collected from the coastal waters of Port Erin Bay, Isle of Man. The number of alleles ranged from two to 29 and observed and expected het...
