Lrp13 is a novel vertebrate lipoprotein receptor that binds vitellogenins in teleost fishes

JOURNAL OF LIPID RESEARCH, 55(11), 2287–2295.

By: B. Reading n , N. Hiramatsu*, J. Schilling n, K. Molloy n, N. Glassbrook n, H. Mizuta *, W. Luo *, D. Baltzegar n ...

author keywords: affinity purification; egg; endocytosis; oocyte; oogenesis; ovary; vitellogenesis; very low density lipoprotein receptor; yolk; low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 13
MeSH headings : Animals; Bass; Cloning, Molecular; Fish Proteins / chemistry; Fish Proteins / genetics; Fish Proteins / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation; Humans; Intracellular Space / metabolism; Protein Binding; Protein Transport; Receptors, Lipoprotein / chemistry; Receptors, Lipoprotein / genetics; Receptors, Lipoprotein / metabolism; Vitellogenins / metabolism
TL;DR: The Lrp13 appears to function as a vitellogenin receptor and may be an important mediator of yolk formation in fishes and other oviparous vertebrates and the presence of lp13 orthologs in mammals suggests that this lipoprotein receptor is widely distributed among vertebrates, where it may generally play a role in lipop protein metabolism.

2014 journal article

Proportional Accumulation of Yolk Proteins Derived From Multiple Vitellogenins is Precisely Regulated During Vitellogenesis in Striped Bass (Morone saxatilis)

JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL ZOOLOGY PART A-ECOLOGICAL AND INTEGRATIVE PHYSIOLOGY, 321(6), 301–315.

By: V. Williams n, B. Reading n , H. Amano*, N. Hiramatsu*, J. Schilling n, S. Salger n, T. Williams n , K. Gross n, C. Sullivan n

Contributors: V. Williams n, B. Reading n , H. Amano*, N. Hiramatsu*, J. Schilling n, S. Salger n, T. Islam Williams  n, K. Gross n, C. Sullivan n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bass / metabolism; Blotting, Western; Egg Proteins / analysis; Egg Proteins / biosynthesis; Egg Proteins / metabolism; Egg Proteins / physiology; Electrophoresis, Polyacrylamide Gel; Female; Liver / chemistry; Mass Spectrometry; Ovary / chemistry; Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction; Vitellogenesis / physiology; Vitellogenins / analysis; Vitellogenins / biosynthesis; Vitellogenins / metabolism; Vitellogenins / physiology
TL;DR: The results indicate that proportional accumulation of multiple Vtgs in the yolk may depend both on the precise rates of their hepatic secretion and specific uptake by oocytes, and composition of the Vtg-derived yolk May vary among Acanthomorph fishes, perhaps reflecting their different early life histories and reproductive strategies.

Journal of Proteome Research, 12(4), 1691–1699.

By: B. Reading* , V. Williams*, R. Chapman*, T. Williams*  & C. Sullivan*

Contributors: B. Reading* , V. Williams*, R. Chapman*, T. Williams*  & C. Sullivan*

author keywords: ribosome; proteasome; translasome; ovary; reproduction; mass-spectrometry; support vector machines; teleost; fish
MeSH headings : Animals; Artificial Intelligence; Bass; Cluster Analysis; Female; Fish Proteins / genetics; Fish Proteins / metabolism; Gene Ontology; Mass Spectrometry / methods; Menstrual Cycle / physiology; Ovary / metabolism; Proteasome Endopeptidase Complex / metabolism; Proteome / metabolism; Ribosomes / genetics; Ribosomes / metabolism
TL;DR: The striped bass ovary proteome is evaluated using label-free quantitative mass spectrometry and a novel machine learning analysis based on K-means clustering and support vector machines to suggest that protein synthesis and degradation are intimately linked. (via Semantic Scholar)

Clinical and Pathological Effects of the Polyopisthocotylean Monogenean, Gamacallum macroura in White Bass

JOURNAL OF AQUATIC ANIMAL HEALTH, 24(4), 251–257.

By: E. Clarke n, C. Harms n , J. Law n, J. Flowers n, V. Williams n, B. Ring n, A. McGinty n, M. Hopper n, C. Sullivan n

MeSH headings : Animals; Bass; Fish Diseases / parasitology; Fish Diseases / pathology; Platyhelminths / classification; Platyhelminths / isolation & purification; Trematode Infections / parasitology; Trematode Infections / veterinary
TL;DR: Pale-gilled and healthy white bass were selected with no particular attention to condition for venipuncture and euthanasia for postmortem examination, including parasite counts from gills, and monogeneans, identified as Gamacallum macroura, were found on the gills. (via Semantic Scholar)
