Gene expression profiling of cuticular proteins across the moult cycle of the crab Portunus pelagicus
BACKGROUND: Crustaceans represent an attractive model to study biomineralization and cuticle matrix formation, as these events are precisely timed to occur at certain stages of the moult cycle. Moulting, the process by which crustaceans shed their exoskeleton, involves the partial breakdown of the o...
