...Amanda M. Palecek; Heiko L. Schoenfuss; Richard W. Blob ABSTRACT The pelvic sucker of Hawaiian waterfall climbing gobies allows these fishes to attach to substrates while climbing waterfalls tens to hundreds of meters tall. Climbing ability varies by species and may be further modulated...

Biol. 205 , 3231 -3240. Buckley, B. A. and Hofmann, G. E. ( 2004 ). Magnitude and duration of thermal stress...

... in chloride secretion in teleost fish. If this is the case, the levels of these transporters should be high in chloride cells of seawater-acclimated fish. We therefore examined the influence of salinity on immunolocalization of Na + /K + -ATPase, NKCC and CFTR in the gills of the Hawaiian goby ( Stenogobius...

...Mirka Jokela; Annika Vartio; Lars Paulin; Nanna Fyhrquist-Vanni; Kristian Donner SUMMARY Absorbance spectra were measured by microspectrophotometry in retinal rods of sand gobies ( Pomatoschistus minutus ) from four allopatric populations (Baltic Sea, Swedish west coast, English Channel...

... DNA-binding activity heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) goby Gillichthys mirabilis heat-shock response Eurythermal organisms adapted to variable thermal environments are faced with the challenge of maintaining biochemical and physiological performance across a range of temperatures. Despite...

...Peter A. Fields; George N. Somero ABSTRACT We compared the deduced amino acid sequences, heat stabilities and thermal sensitivities of a kinetic property, the apparent Michaelis–Menten constant ( K m ) of pyruvate, of A 4 -lactate dehydrogenase (A 4 -LDH) in four species of goby fishes (Family...
