NvPOU4/Brain3 Functions as a Terminal Selector Gene in the Nervous System of the Cnidarian Nematostella vectensis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-03)Terminal selectors are transcription factors that control the morphological, physiological, and molecular features that characterize distinct cell types. Here, we show that, in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis, NvPOU4 ... -
RADICL-seq identifies general and cell type–specific principles of genome-wide RNA-chromatin interactions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Mammalian genomes encode tens of thousands of noncoding RNAs. Most noncoding transcripts exhibit nuclear localization and several have been shown to play a role in the regulation of gene expression and chromatin remodeling. ... -
The visual pigment xenopsin is widespread in protostome eyes and impacts the view on eye evolution
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Photoreceptor cells in the eyes of Bilateria are often classified into microvillar cells with rhabdomeric opsin and ciliary cells with ciliary opsin, each type having specialized molecular components and physiology. First ... -
The development of early pioneer neurons in the annelid Malacoceros fuliginosus
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Background Nervous system development is an interplay of many processes: the formation of individual neurons, which depends on whole-body and local patterning processes, and the coordinated growth of neurites and synapse ... -
Generating transgenic reporter lines for studying nervous system development in the cnidarian nematostella vectensis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Neurons often display complex morphologies with long and fine processes that can be difficult to visualize, in particular in living animals. Transgenic reporter lines in which fluorescent proteins are expressed in defined ... -
The genetic basis for PRC1 complex diversity emerged early in animal evolution
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Polycomb group proteins are essential regulators of developmental processes across animals. Despite their importance, studies on Polycomb are often restricted to classical model systems and, as such, little is known about ... -
Some like it hot: population-specific adaptations in venom production to abiotic stressors in a widely distributed cnidarian
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-09)Background: In cnidarians, antagonistic interactions with predators and prey are mediated by their venom, whose synthesis may be metabolically expensive. The potentially high cost of venom production has been hypothesized ... -

Diversity and host associations of Myrsidea chewing lice (Phthiraptera: Menoponidae) in the tropical rainforest of Malaysian Borneo
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The tropical rainforests of Sundaland are a global biodiversity hotspot increasingly threatened by human activities. While parasitic insects are an important component of the ecosystem, their diversity and parasite-host ... -

Heterogenic Origin of Micro RNAs in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) Seminal Plasma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The origin and contribution of seminal plasma RNAs into the whole semen RNA repertoire are poorly known, frequently being overlooked or neglected. In this study, we used high-throughput sequencing and RT-qPCR to profile ... -
Transcriptional adaptation in caenorhabditis elegans
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020-01)Transcriptional adaptation is a recently described phenomenon by which a mutation in one gene leads to the transcriptional modulation of related genes, termed adapting genes. At the molecular level, it has been proposed ... -
Arctic Sea level Budget Assessment During the GRACE/Argo Time Period
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Sea level change is an important indicator of climate change. Our study focuses on the sea level budget assessment of the Arctic Ocean using: (1) the newly reprocessed satellite altimeter data with major changes in the ... -

Gene expression profiles of dicyemid life-cycle stages may explain how dispersing larvae locate new hosts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-13)Metazoans have evolved a great variety of life histories in response to environmental conditions. A unique example is encountered in dicyemid mesozoans. In addition to a highly simplified adult body comprising only ~ 30 ... -

Weaving identities - local and global customs between Early Iron Age Italy and Greece
(Papers and Monographs from the Norwegian Institute at Athens. volume 5, Chapter, 2016)This contribution discusses the connectivity of the Mediterranean during the Early Iron Age. In contrast to already well explored tropes like the adoption of banquet equipment and warrior ideology as institutionalised forms ...
