Abstract Background Cysts of Artemia can remain in a dormant state for long periods with a
very low metabolic rate, and only resume their development with the approach of favorable …

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a central role in maintaining the energy balance
of organisms under physiological and environmental stresses. Here two AMPK alpha …

Background Artemia eggs tend to develop ovoviviparously to yield nauplius larvae in good
rearing conditions; while under adverse situations, they tend to develop oviparously and …

Artemia has evolved a unique developmental pattern of encysted embryos to cope with
various environmental threats. Cell divisions totally cease during the preemergence …

The morphogenesis of supernumerary appendages on otherwise apodous abdominal
segments can be induced in Artemia by specific nutritional conditions imposed on young …

Sequencing of cloned cDNAs to produce expressed sequence tag (EST) libraries is an
efficient method for gene identification and analysis of transcription status within organisms …

Toxoplasma gondii is a widespread eukaryotic pathogen that causes life-threatening
diseases in humans and diverse animals. It has a complex life cycle with multiple …

This study aimed to characterize the full-length cDNA of AMP-activated protein kinase α1
(AMPKα1) from Megalobrama amblycephala and investigate the transcriptional response of …

Artemia is a widely distributed small aquatic crustacean, renowned for its ability to enter a
state of embryonic diapause. The embryonic diapause termination (EDT) is closely linked to …

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is extremely sensitive to cellular stress, so that
nonphysiological activation of the kinase can readily occur during harvesting of cells or …
