Project description:Comparison of freshwater tolerant (accession CCAP 1310/196, origin Hopkins River Falls, Victoria, Australia) and strictly marine strain (accession CCAP 1310/4, origin San Juan de Marcona, Peru) of E. siliculosus under different salinites

Project description:Sperm contains essential proteins for interaction with eggs, however, there are only several sperm proteins reported with important role in fertilization, and gamete proteomics are limited in marine invertebrate species. We present here a sperm proteomic profile of marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. There are 816 proteins were successfully identified by LC-MS/MS based on 1-DE SDS-PAGE. Many of the identifications are relevant to sperm cell physiology and mtDNA functioning. The results will contribute to better understand the proteins involved in fertilization in M. galloprovincialis, as well as the other marine invertebrate species.
