The evolution of hemocyanin genes in Tectipleura: a multitude of conserved introns in highly diverse gastropods

BACKGROUND: Hemocyanin is the oxygen transporter of most molluscs. Since the oxygen affinity of hemocyanin is strongly temperature-dependent, this essential protein needs to be well-adapted to the environment. In Tectipleura, a very diverse group of gastropods with > 27,000 species living in all...
