Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular characterization of a cDNA encoding vitellogenin and its expression in the hepatopancreas and ovary during vitellogenesis in the Kuruma Prawn, Penaeus japonicus.
Naoaki Tsutsui,Ichiro Kawazoe,Tsuyoshi Ohira,Safiah Jasmani,Wei-Jun Yang,Marcy N. Wilder,Katsumi Aida +6 more
TL;DR: Differing profiles of vitellogenin mRNA levels in the ovary and hepatopancreas suggest that the contribution of these tissues to vitelliogenin synthesis harbor separate and complementary roles during viteLLogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deduced primary structure of vitellogenin in the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, and yolk processing during ovarian maturation.
Atsuro Okuno,Wei Jun Yang,Vidya Jayasankar,Hisako Saido-Sakanaka,Do Thi Thanh Huong,Safiah Jasmani,Muharijadi Atmomarsono,Thanumalayaperumal Subramoniam,Naoaki Tsutsui,Tsuyoshi Ohira,Ichiro Kawazoe,Katsumi Aida,Marcy N. Wilder +12 more
TL;DR: The post-translational processing of Vg in M. rosenbergii is demonstrated for the first time that Vg processing has been clearly demonstrated in a crustacean species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characteristics and primary structure of a galectin in the skin mucus of the Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica.
Satoshi Tasumi,Wei-Jun Yang,Takeshi Usami,Shigeyuki Tsutsui,Tsuyoshi Ohira,Ichiro Kawazoe,Marcy N. Wilder,Katsumi Aida,Yuzuru Suzuki +8 more
TL;DR: The characteristics and primary structure of AJL-1, one of the lectins in the skin mucus of the Japanese eel, were examined, and it showed agglutinating activity against pathogenic bacteria, Streptococcus difficile, suggesting that AJl-1 functions as an important defensive factor at the body surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of amino acid sequence and site of mRNA expression of four vitellins in the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii.
Wei Jun Yang,Tsuyoshi Ohira,Naoaki Tsutsui,Thanumalayaperumal Subramoniam,Do Thi Thanh Huong,Katsumi Aida,Marcy N. Wilder +6 more
TL;DR: This is the first occasion in Crustacea in which multiple Vns were demonstrated to be synthesized simultaneously in a single tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effects of crustacean hyperglycemic hormone-family peptides on vitellogenin gene expression in the kuruma prawn, Marsupenaeus japonicus
Naoaki Tsutsui,Hidekazu Katayama,Tsuyoshi Ohira,Hiromichi Nagasawa,Marcy N. Wilder,Katsumi Aida +5 more
TL;DR: Results suggest that, in the immature ovary, sinus gland peptide-III is involved in the suppression of vitellogenin gene expression, providing a rationale for the significant increase in viteLLogenin mRNA levels in the ovaries of eyestalk-ablated prawns.
