Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Meretrix meretrix starvation causes a slight increase in MmeCB protein synthesis in the digestive gland, while refeeding after starvation causes an apparent increase in MmeCB synthesis in digestive gland, gill and mantle. MmeCB mRNA in digestive gland is 3.5fold up-regulated by starvation up
