The effects of oxidation on protein digestion and transport in cooked abalone muscles were investigated using a combination of simulated digestion and everted-rat-gut-sac models for the first time. Boiling heat treatments caused protein oxidation in the abalone muscles, reflected by increases in the carbonyl group and disulfide bond contents, protein hydrophobicity and aggregation degree, as well as decreases in the free sulfhydryl group and amino acid contents. Protein oxidation significantly inhibited the degree of hydrolysis, digestion rate, and digestibility of the abalone muscles in the simulated digestion model. The results from the everted-rat-gut-sac model showed that amino acid and peptide transport levels from the digestion products of the cooked abalone muscles were lower than those of the uncooked samples. In contrast, the addition of antioxidants of bamboo leaves mitigated heat-treatment-induced protein oxidation, aggregation and increased hydrophobicity, and consequently improved abalone muscle protein digestibility and transport levels.

Allatotropin (AT) has been identified in many insects and plays important roles in the regulation of their intestinal contraction, heart rate, ion transport, and digestive enzyme secretion. However, information on AT-related bioinformatics in other animal phyla is scarce. In this study, we cloned a full-length cDNA encoding the AT-related peptide receptor (ATRPR) of the abalone Haliotis discus hannai (Hdh) and further characterized Hdh-ATRPR with its potential ligands, Hdh-ATRPs.

May 2024

Department of Biotechnology, College of Life Sciences and Biotechnology, Korea University, 145 Anam-ro, Seongbuk-gu, Seoul 02841, Republic of Korea.

The aim of this study is to determine the total iodine content in Korean abalone () and to investigate the bioavailability of iodine using an in vitro method. This research paper focuses on total iodine quantification in abalone () and its components (viscera and muscle) using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Additionally, an in vitro bioavailability study explored iodine absorption potential.

Up to now, it has been believed that invertebrates are unable to synthesize ascorbic acid (AA) in vivo. However, in the present study, the full-length CDs (Coding sequence) of L-gulonolactone oxidase (GLO) from Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai Ino) were obtained through molecular cloning. The Pacific abalone GLO contained a FAD-binding domain in the N-termination, and ALO domain and conserved HWAK motif in the C-termination.

Article Synopsis
  • Myoinhibitory peptides (MIPs) play important roles in various physiological functions in invertebrates, but their signaling systems have not been fully studied in mollusks.
  • In this study, researchers identified eight distinct MIPs in the Pacific abalone, Haliotis discus hannai, and a functional receptor (Hdh-MIPR) that interacts with these peptides.
  • The findings showed that Hdh-MIPs can delay larval metamorphosis while promoting spawning behavior, indicating a unique function of MIPs in invertebrate biology.
