Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) Channels in the Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas): Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Profiling after Heat Stress between C. gigas and C. angulata.

Abstract excerpt

Transmembrane proteins are involved in an array of stress responses, particularly in thermo-sensation and thermo-regulation. In this study, we performed a genome-wide identification and characterization of the Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) genes in the Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) and investigated their expression profiles after heat stress to identify critical TRPs potentially associated with thermal...
