Tgm1-like transglutaminases in tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus)
Among the adaptations of aquatic species during evolution of terrestrial tetrapods was the development of an epidermis preventing desiccation. In present day mammals, keratinocytes of the epidermis, using a membrane-bound transglutaminase (Tgm1), accomplish this function by synthesizing a scaffold of cross-linked protein to which a lipid envelope is attached. This study characterizes the abilit...
متن کاملEuryhaline tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus
regulated by, and suited to, the environment in which they reproduce. In many teleosts, which spawn in either freshwater or seawater, sperm motility is initiated by osmotic shock when sperm are ejaculated. These osmolality dependent regulatory systems are quite different in freshwater cyprinid teleosts, such as carp, gold fish and zebrafish, and marine teleosts, such as the pufferfish and floun...
متن کاملEstradiol impairs hyposmoregulatory capacity in the euryhaline tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus.
Freshwater (FW)-adapted tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) were treated with estradiol (E(2)) for 4 days to stimulate protein synthesis and sampled at 0, 4, and 24 h after exposure to 50% seawater (SW). E(2) increased circulating vitellogenin (VTG) levels in large amounts, indicative of unusually high rates of hepatic protein synthesis. E(2) treatment prevented the recovery of plasma osmolality ...
متن کاملNear-infrared orientation of Mozambique tilapia Oreochromis mossambicus.
Light plays a pivotal role in animal orientation. Aquatic animals face the problem that penetration of light in water is restricted through high attenuation which limits the use of visual cues. In pure water, blue and green light penetrates considerably deeper than red and infrared spectral components. Submicroscopic particles and coloured dissolved organic matter, however, may cause increased ...
متن کاملFeed-based vaccination regime against streptococcosis in red tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus x Oreochromis mossambicus
BACKGROUND Streptococcosis is an important disease of tilapia throughout the world. In Malaysia, streptococcosis outbreak was commonly reported during the 3-month period of high water temperature between April and July. This study describes the duration of protection following single and double booster dose regimes against streptococcosis in tilapia using a feed-based vaccine containing formali...
