Complementary mechanisms for neurotoxin resistance in a copepod.

Scientific reports - 27 Oct 2017

Roncalli Vittoria, Lenz Petra H, Cieslak Matthew C, Hartline Daniel K

Abstract excerpt

Toxin resistance is a recurring evolutionary response by predators feeding on toxic prey. These adaptations impact physiological interaction and community ecology. Mechanisms for resistance vary depending on the predator and the nature of the toxin. Potent neurotoxins like tetrodotoxin (TTX) and saxitoxin (STX) that are highly toxic to humans and other vertebrates, target conserved voltage-gated sodium channels...
