  • Analysis of Synonymous Codon Usage Patterns in Sixty-Four Different Bivalve Species
    Analysis of synonymous codon usage patterns in sixty-four diVerent bivalve species Marco Gerdol1, Gianluca De Moro1, Paola Venier2 and Alberto Pallavicini1 1 Department of Life Sciences, University of Trieste, Trieste, Italy 2 Department of Biology, University of Padova, Padova, Italy ABSTRACT Synonymous codon usage bias (CUB) is a defined as the non-random usage of codons encoding the same amino acid across diVerent genomes. This phenomenon is common to all organisms and the real weight of the many factors involved in its shaping still remains to be fully determined. So far, relatively little attention has been put in the analysis of CUB in bivalve mollusks due to the limited genomic data available. Taking advantage of the massive sequence data generated from next generation sequencing projects, we explored codon preferences in 64 diVerent species pertaining to the six major evolutionary lineages in Bivalvia. We detected remarkable diVerences across species, which are only partially dependent on phylogeny. While the intensity of CUB is mild in most organisms, a heterogeneous group of species (including Arcida and Mytilida, among the others) display higher bias and a strong preference for AT-ending codons. We show that the relative strength and direction of mutational bias, selection for translational eYciency and for translational accuracy contribute to the establishment of synonymous codon usage in bivalves. Although many aspects underlying bivalve CUB still remain obscure, we provide for the first time an overview of this phenomenon

  • Pectenovarin, a New Ovarian Carotenoprotein from Japanese Scallop Mizuhopecten Yessoensis

Its conspicuous pink color implies the presence of carotenoprotein. However, the carotenoprotein from the scallop ovary has never been isolated and characterized, probably due to its instability and complexity. Here, we developed an extraction and isolation procedure for the carotenoprotein by employing a basic buffer containing potassium bromide to facilitate its efficient extraction from the ovary, and we succeeded in obtaining the carotenoprotein, termed pectenovarin. The carotenoid composition of the pectenovarin was similar to that of the ovary. The N-terminal and internal amino acid sequences of pectenovarin showed a high similarity to those of vitellogenin, the precursor of egg yolk protein under analysis. Keywords: carotenoproteins; carotenoids; scallop ovary; Japanese scallop 1. Introduction Carotenoids are one of the essential classes of metabolites in a wide variety of living organisms. More than 750 different carotenoids have been reported to date [1]. It is known that carotenoids bind to proteins, termed carotenoproteins, to stabilize themselves against light or heat or to manipulate their physical properties, including solubility and color.

  • Computational Modelling of Wet Adhesive Mussel Foot Proteins (Bivalvia): Insights Into the Evolutionary Convolution in Diverse Perspectives P
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Computational modelling of wet adhesive mussel foot proteins (Bivalvia): Insights into the evolutionary convolution in diverse perspectives P. P. Anand & Y. Shibu Vardhanan Underwater adhesion in mussels (Bivalvia) is an extreme adaptation to achieve robust and frm wet adhesion in the freshwater/brackish/ocean, which biochemically shaped through millions of years. The protein-based adhesion has huge prospective in various felds like industry, medical, etc. Currently, no comprehensive records related to the systematic documentation of structural and functional properties of Mussel foot proteins (Mfps). In this study, we identifed the nine species of bivalves in which the complete sequence of at least one adhesive protein is known. The insilico characterization revealed the specifc physio-chemical structural and functional characters of each Mfps. The evolutionary analyses of selected bivalves are mainly based on Mfps, Mitogenome, and TimeTree. The outcome of the works has great applications for designing biomimetic materials in future. Some groups of mussels are capable to produce proteinaceous glue- like sticky material known as byssus thread made by an array of foot proteins (fps). Tis byssus contains mainly four parts i.e. Plaque, thread, stem, and root. Individual threads proximally merged together to form stem and base of the stem (root) deeply anchored at the base of animal foot. Each byssus threads terminating distally with a fattened plaque which mediates adhesion to the substratum1–4. Each part of the byssus thread complex formed by the auto-assembly of secretory products originating from four distinct glands enclosed in the mussel foot4,5. Tese mussel foot protein (Mfps), mastered the ability to binding the diverse substratum by using adhesive plaques.

  • Comparative Large-Scale Mitogenomics Evidences Clade-Specific Evolutionary Trends in Mitochondrial Dnas of Bivalvia
    GBE Comparative Large-Scale Mitogenomics Evidences Clade-Specific Evolutionary Trends in Mitochondrial DNAs of Bivalvia Federico Plazzi*, Guglielmo Puccio, and Marco Passamonti Department of Biological, Geological and Environmental Sciences, University of Bologna, via Selmi, 3 – 40126 Bologna, Italy *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted: July 31, 2016 Abstract Despite the figure of complete bivalve mitochondrial genomes keeps growing, an assessment of the general features of these genomes in a phylogenetic framework is still lacking, despite the fact that bivalve mitochondrial genomes are unusual under different aspects. In this work, we constructed a dataset of one hundred mitochondrial genomes of bivalves to perform the first systematic comparative mitogenomic analysis, developing a phylogenetic background to scaffold the evolutionary history of the class’ mito- chondrial genomes. Highly conserved domains were identified in all protein coding genes; however, four genes (namely, atp6, nad2, nad4L,andnad6) were found to be very divergent for many respects, notwithstanding the overall purifying selection working on those genomes. Moreover, the atp8 gene was newly annotated in 20 mitochondrial genomes, where it was previously declared as lacking or only signaled. Supernumerary mitochondrial proteins were compared, but it was possible to find homologies only among strictly related species. The rearrangement rate on the molecule is too high to be used as a phylogenetic marker, but here we demonstrate for the first time in mollusks that there is correlation between rearrangement rates and evolutionary rates. We also developed a new index (HERMES) to estimate the amount of mitochondrial evolution. Many genomic features are phylogenetically congruent and this allowed us to highlight three main phases in bivalve history: the origin, the branching of palaeoheterodonts, and the second radiation leading to the present-day biodiversity.

Abstract: The factors involved in promoting long life are extremely intriguing from a human perspective. In part by confronting our own mortality, we have a desire to understand why some organisms live for centuries and others only a matter of days or weeks. What are the factors involved in promoting long life? Not only are questions of lifespan significant from a human perspective, but they are also important from a paleontological one. Most studies of evolution in the fossil record examine changes in the size and the shape of organisms through time. Size and shape are in part a function of life history parameters like lifespan and growth rate, but so far little work has been done on either in the fossil record. The shells of bivavled mollusks may provide an avenue to do just that. Bivalves, much like trees, record their size at each year of life in their shells. In other words, bivalve shells record not only lifespan, but also growth rate.

The thresholds were determined at 140 Hz. Both spe- cies displayed the highest sensitivity to vibrations, the source of which was placed above the animal (opposite to the left valve), rostro-dorsally to its vertical axis. Removal of the ASO led to loss of directional sensitivity and a considerable increase in the sound reaction threshold. Both species were sensitive to modulated ultrasonic vibrations in the range of 30–1000 Hz.
