A multiplier peroxiporin signal transduction pathway powers piscine spermatozoa
(National Academy of Sciences, 2021-03-09)
The primary task of a spermatozoon is to deliver its nuclear payload to the egg to form the next-generation zygote. With polyandry repeatedly evolving in the animal kingdom, however, sperm competition ...
Lineage-level divergence of copepod glycerol transporters and the emergence of isoform-specific trafficking regulation
(Nature Research, 2021-05-31)
Transmembrane conductance of small uncharged solutes such as glycerol typically occurs through aquaglyceroporins (Glps), which are commonly encoded by multiple genes in metazoan organisms. To date, ...
Developmental RNA-Seq transcriptomics of haploid germ cells and spermatozoa uncovers novel pathways associated with teleost spermiogenesis
(Nature Research, 2022-08-19)
In non-mammalian vertebrates, the molecular mechanisms involved in the transformation of haploid germ cells (HGCs) into spermatozoa (spermiogenesis) are largely unknown. Here, we investigated this process ...
A transcriptomic analysis of diploid and triploid Atlantic salmon lenses with and without cataracts
(Elsevier, 2020-07-28)
To avoid negative environmental impacts of escapees and potential inter-breeding with wild populations, the Atlantic salmon farming industry has and continues to extensively test triploid fish that are ...
