Perivitellin-2Ā (PV2) is aĀ pore-forming toxinĀ present in the eggĀ perivitelline fluidĀ of apple snails
Perivitellin-2Ā (PV2) is aĀ pore-forming toxinĀ present in the eggĀ perivitelline fluidĀ of the apple snailsĀ Pomacea maculataĀ (PmPV2) andĀ Pomacea canaliculataĀ (PcPV2). ThisĀ protein, calledĀ perivitellin, is massively accumulated in the eggs (~20Ā % totalĀ protein). As a toxin PV2 protects eggs
PerivitellinsĀ are egg proteins found in theĀ perivitelline fluidĀ of manyĀ gastropods
Perivitellins are multifunctional complexes providing the developing embryo with nutrition, protection from the environment, and defense against predators. Despite the central role perivitellins play in reproduction and development, there is little information about their role inĀ gastropodĀ Mollusc
Scalarin carries and stabilizesĀ carotenoidĀ pigments
ScalarinĀ (PsSC) is the most abundantĀ perivitellinĀ of theĀ perivitelline fluidĀ fromĀ Pomacea scalarisĀ eggs. This glyco-lipo-caroteno protein is an approx. 380 kDa multimer combining multiple copies of six different 24-35 kDa subunits. As part of theĀ petivitelline fluid, PsSC is probably playing
Pomacea maculataĀ perivitellin-1Ā (PmPV1) is a glyco-lipo-caroteno protein
Pomacea maculataĀ perivitellin-1Ā (PmPV1) is the most abundantĀ perivitellinĀ found in theĀ perivitelline fluidĀ fromĀ Pomacea maculataĀ snail eggs. This glyco-lipo-caroteno protein is an approx. 294 kDa multimer of a combination of multiple copies of six different ~30 kDa subunits.Ā Ā PmPV1 account
Ovorubin
OvorubinĀ (PcOvoĀ orĀ PcPV1) is the most abundantĀ perivitellinĀ (>60Ā % totalĀ protein) of theĀ perivitelline fluidĀ fromĀ Pomacea canaliculataĀ snail eggs. This glyco-lipo-caroteno protein complex is a approx. 300 kDa multimer of a combination of multiple copies of six different ~30 kDa subunits.

Isoleucine, Tryptophol, Sleeping Sickness, The Disulfiram Effect and One Trick Hypnotists From Hell
IsoleucineĀ (symbolĀ IleĀ orĀ I)Ā is anĀ Ī±-amino acidĀ that is used in theĀ biosynthesisĀ ofĀ proteins. It contains anĀ Ī±-amino groupĀ (which is in the protonated āNH+3Ā form under biological conditions), anĀ Ī±-carboxylic acid groupĀ (which is in the deprotonated āCOOāĀ form under biologica
Biotin
BIOTIN Biotin is involved in a wide range of metabolic processes in humans and in other organisms, primarily related to the utilization of fats, carbohydrates, and amino acids. The name biotin, borrowed from the German Biotin, derives from the Ancient Greek Ī²ĪÆĪæĻĪæĻ (bĆotos; ‘life’)
AvidinĀ is aĀ tetramericĀ biotin-bindingĀ proteinĀ produced in theĀ oviductsĀ ofĀ birds,Ā reptiles, amphibians
Dimeric members of the avidin family are also found in some bacteria. In chicken egg white, avidin makes up approximately 0.05% of total protein (approximately 1800 Ī¼g per egg). The tetrameric protein contains four identical subunits (homotetramer), each of which can bind to&nbs
