Calcineurin (CN), consisting of catalytic subunit (CN A) and regulatory subunit (CN B), is a multifunctional protein involved in many important physiological processes. Here, we cloned two subunits of CN (Pf-CN A and Pf-CN B) from pearl oyster Pinctada fucata and reported, for the first time, its ex

The limpet Lepetodrilus fucensis McLean is very abundant at hydrothermal vents on the Juan de Fuca and Explorer Ridges in the northeast Pacific Ocean. This limpet is parasitized by an undescribed chitonophilid copepod throughout the limpet's range. The parasite copepodite enters the mantle cavity an
