Transcriptome survey of phototransduction and clock genes in marine bivalves

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Marine animals exhibit a variety of biological rhythms, such as solar and lunar-related cycles; however, our current molecular understanding of biological rhythms in marine animals is quite limited. Identifying and understanding the expression patterns of clock genes from available transcriptomes will help elucidate biological rhythms in marine species. Here, we perform a comprehensive survey of phototransduction and circadian genes using the mantle transcriptome of the scallop Patinopecten yessoensi… Show more

“…Clock genes and their protein complexes interact via negative feedback loops, forming the molecular clock mechanism at the heart of biological timekeeping (Hardin, 2005;Young & Kay, 2001;Shearman et al, 2000). The single Per homolog present in molluscs (Sun et al, 2016;Constance et al, 2002) was isolated in M. edulis herein and grouped phylogenetically with other molluscan PER sequences (Figure S3). Also isolated was M. edulis Rev-erb (E75) containing the characteristic DNA-binding and ligand-binding domains (Figure S4) and shared most sequence similarity with other mollusc sequences (Figure S5).…”

“…However, second peaks in expression apparent during the subjective night for a number of M. edulis genes under LD (Cry1 and Reverb) and DD (Cry1, Clk and ROR) suggest a possible ultradian (<24 hr) rhythm. Hypothetical models of bivalve molecular clocks have been proposed to incorporate elements of both mammalian and insect core interactions Sun et al, 2016), though functional studies are required to further clarify bivalve clock organisation. The molecular mechanisms by which ultradian rhythms, such 12 hr tidal rhythms, are regulated are also yet to be elucidated.…”
