• Abstract

  This project is a continuation of our research line which aims to systematically study the structural and kinetic properties of the (Na+, K+)-ATPase from the gill tissue of different species of decapod crustaceans, particularly crabs and shrimps, in order to establish a model for the adaptation of these organisms to environments of different salinities. The project involves the participat…

• Abstract

  This postdoctoral project is a continuation our line of research that has been supported by FAPESP in which we investigate the gill (Na+,K+)-ATPase in crustaceans as molecular marker of adaptation to environments of different salinities. Freshwater species face the challenge to develop physiological adaptations under hyposmotic conditions. In hyperosmoregulating animals, the gills act as …

  The (Na+,K+)-ATPase in osmoregulatory capacity in crab Ucides cordatus: biochemical and molecular view, BP.PD

• Abstract

  This project is a continuation of our research line, that has been supported by FAPESP aiming the systematic study of the structural properties and kinetics of Na,K-ATPase from gill tissue of different species of crabs and shrimps in order to establish a model for the adaptation of crustaceans to environments of different salinities. Hemolymph osmolarity of crustaceans is maintained by th…
