متن کاملAPH-1, a POU homeobox gene expressed in the salt gland of the crustacean Artemia franciscana
We characterized the first POU-homeoprotein in a crustacean (designated APH-1 for Artemia POU-Homeoprotein, EMBL Y15070). The amino acid sequence of the APH-1 POU-domain is identical, except for two residues, to that of the two class III POU proteins Cf1-a (Drosophila) and POU-M1 (Bombyx mori). Southern blot analysis suggests that crustaceans have only one class III POU gene. RT-PCR and whole-m...
متن کاملGene expression in diapause-destined embryos of the crustacean, Artemia franciscana
Diapause-destined embryos of the crustacean Artemia franciscana cease development as gastrulae, encyst, and enter a resting stage characterized by greatly reduced metabolic activity and extreme stress resistance. To better understand diapause induction and maintenance in Artemia embryos gene expression was analyzed by subtractive hybridization at two days post-fertilization, a time early in thi...
متن کاملRegulation of promoter occupancy during activation of cryptobiotic embryos from the crustacean Artemia franciscana.
Artemia franciscana embryos can suspend their development and metabolism at the gastrula stage to enter a state of cryptobiosis, forming cysts. Embryonic development and metabolism can be resumed under favorable environmental conditions to give rise to free-swimming larvae or nauplii. The mechanisms that mediate these processes are not completely known. Here, we report our studies of the mechan...
متن کاملAlternative Biotest on Artemia franciscana
Recent toxicology, in accordance with recommendations from the European Council, has demanded decrease in the number of vertebrates used in toxicology testing and their partial replacement with invertebrate animals, plants or even organ, tissue, or cell cultures. During the last 50 years various invertebrate species have been tested for their sensitivity to many chemical or physical agents to p...
