Quantifying fish metallothionein transcript by real time PCR for its utilization as an environmental biomarker
TL;DR: Minimal and maximal metallothionein transcript levels were determined, 61+/-47 and 2159+/-905 atomol/pmol 18S rRNA, respectively, and within-sample variability of the two feral fish samples, or of similarly treated experimental fish groups, expressed as percentage of the standard deviation from the average transcript level was statistically significant.

Hemocyanin with phenoloxidase activity in the chitin matrix of the crayfish gastrolith
TL;DR: The results reflect a set of functionally versatile proteins, expressed in a remote metabolic tissue and dispersed via the hemolymph to perform different roles in various organs and structures.

TL;DR: Findings suggest that GAP 10 may be involved in the assembly of the gastrolith chitin-protein-mineral complex, particularly in the deposition of amorphous calcium carbonate.

TL;DR: Alterations of hepatopancreatic multi‐transcript expression patterns, related to induced moult cycle, were identified in male Cherax quadricarinatus through cDNA microarray hybridizations of hepatobiology transcript populations.

Molecular characterization of the first heat shock protein 70 from a reef coral.
TL;DR: The first coral heat shock protein 70 gene (SP-HSP70), cloned from S. pistillata, is characterized and has been shown to belong to the coral genome and not to its symbiotic algae one, as revealed by PCR amplification, using purified algal and coral DNA templates.
