The proteomics analysis of Crassostrea gigas under Zn and Cd contamination

ABSTRACT: Understanding organisms’ environmental adaptation mechanisms is a fundamental question in ecology and evolution. The oyster Crassostrea gigas is able to accumulate high levels of zinc (Zn) and cadmium (Cd) without self-poisoning, and is thus widely used for pollution detection. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying such stress adaptation are largely unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to provide fundamental insights into the complex Zn/Cd-response regulatory networks.
