Project description:Nacre, the iridescent material found in pearls and shells of molluscs, is formed through an extraordinary process of matrix-assisted biomineralization. Despite recent advances, many parts of the biomineralization process and its evolutionary origin remain a mystery. The pearl oyster Pinctada fucata martensii is a well-known master of biomineralization, but the molecular mechanisms underlie its production of remarkable shells and pearls is not fully understood. We sequenced the highly polymorphic genome of the pearl oyster and conducted multi-omic and biochemical studies to probe nacre formation. We identified a large set of novel proteins participating in matrix-framework formation, many in expanded families, including components similar to that found in vertebrate bones such as collagen-related VWA-containing proteins (VWAP), chondroitin sulfotransferases and regulatory elements.Considering that there are only collagen-based matrices in vertebrate bones and chitin-based matrices in most invertebrate skeletons, the presence of both chitin and elements of collagen-based matrices in nacre matrices suggests that elements of chitin- and collagen-based matrices are deeply rooted and might be part of an ancient biomineralizing matrix. Our results expand the current shell matrix-framework model and provide new insights into the evolution of diverse biomineralization systems.

Project description:Strain N16961 was incubated with crab shell in artificial seawater media for 24 hours. cDNA from 1 ug RNA was labeled with Cy3 (planktonic bacteria) and Cy5 (crab attached bacteria). A growth condition experiment design type is where some part of the growth condition is changed for the purposes of the experiment, examples of growth conditions changed are media, temperature, humidity, light, nutrients.

Project description:Molluscan larval ontogeny is a highly conserved process typical of 3 principal developmental stages. A characteristic unique to each of these stages is shell design, termed prodissoconch I, prodissoconch II and dissoconch. These shells vary in morphology, mineralogy and microstructure. The discrete temporal transitions in shell biomineralization between these larval stages are utilized in this study to investigate transcriptional involvement in several distinct biomineralization events. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis of P. maxima larvae and juveniles collected throughout post-embryonic ontogenesis, document the mineralogy and microstructure of each shelled stage as well as establishing a timeline for transitions in biomineralization. P. maxima larval samples most representative of these biomineralization distinctions and transitions were analyzed for differential gene expression on the microarray platform PmaxArray 1.0. A number of transcripts are reported as differentially expressed in correlation to the mineralization events of P. maxima larval ontogeny. Some of those isolated are known shell matrix genes while others are novel, these are discussed in relation to potential shell formation roles. This interdisciplinary investigation has married the shell developments of P. maxima larval ontogeny with corresponding gene expression profiles, furthering the elucidation of shell biomineralization.

Project description:MSP22.8 is a shell matrix protein described in Mytilus galloprovincialis. During the characterization of the monoclonal antibody M22.8, we have demostrated that MSP22.8 is secreted into the extrapallial space by cells of the mantle edge epithelium. The protein is detected in the extrapallial fluid and extrapallial hemocytes and finally becomes part of the shell matrix framework. In order to isolate the protein from the extrapallial fluid, a multi-step purification strategy was designed, involving ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by affinity or size-exclusion chromatography. Eluted fractions were further processed by SDS-PAGE or 2D-PAGE. Positivity of fractions, bands and spots were checked by Western or Dot blot. Positive bands and spots were manually excised and sent for mass spectrometry experiments for protein identification.

Project description:This work reports a comprehensive and integrated microstructural, biochemical and proteomics study on the shell matrix of Spondylus gaederopus, the Mediterranean thorny oyster. We investigate the skeletal matrix proteins which are involved in biomineralization and compare the identified Spondylus sequences with other shell proteins, that are publicly available in databases. Using high-resolution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) we characterized several shell protein fractions, isolated by different bleaching treatments. We identified six shell proteins, which also displayed features and domains typically found in biomineralized tissues, including the prevalence of intrinsically disordered regions. However, many reconstructed peptide sequences (de novo) could not be matched to any known shell proteins and we suggest that these probably represent lineage-specific sequences. The proteomic data implies that Spondylus may have evolved a distinct molecular toolkit for biomineralization.

Keywords: Temporal expression profiling by array Microarray is used to examine the temporal differential expression of transcripts from several bivalve larval development stages including 24hrs post fertilization, 3 days, 17 days, 20 days, 23 days, 26 days, 30 days, 35 days, 40 days. Differential expression profiles for transcripts of all the temporal samples was determined based on comparison to a common reference of unfertilized eggs. Each temporal larval sample included in the study has at least 3 replicate hybridizations. Dye flips have been incorporated in the replicates. A total of 46 microarray hybridizations were performed in this investigation for differential expression analysis.

Project description:The appearance of hard mineralized exoskeletons is a critical leap for animal evolution and partially lead to the explosion of diverse animals during the Cambrian, for example, molluscs. A majority of molluscs have mineralized shells to protect themselves. Despite numerous studies that have studied the remarkable mechanical properties of shells, the origin of shell formation is still elusive. Hence, this study investigated the overlooked shell proteome of chitons, which belong to polyplacophoran, Aculifera of Mollusca. By comparing the shell proteome to well-studied Conchifera groups, we inferred possible ancestral biomineralization toolkits of stem-group Mollusca. Taking advantage of the recently sequenced chiton mantle transcriptome and genome, eight core biomineralization proteins were identified by proteomics. Surprisingly, in contrast to previous thought that shell formation is convergently evolved, two important shell matrix proteins, Nacrein-like and Pif-like proteins were found to be conserved among Aculifera and Conchifera groups. Our findings identify a missed link of mineralized shell evolution in Mollusca and pose a hypothesis that stem-group molluscs have already evolved core biomineralization toolkits, which likely facilitate the formation of mineralized shells for protection that partially leads to their explosion.
