Deep sequencing of transcriptomes from the nervous systems of two decapod crustaceans to characterize genes important for neural circuit function and modulation

Open access

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Crustaceans have been studied extensively as model systems for nervous system function from single neuron properties to behavior. However, lack of molecular sequence information and tools have slowed the adoption of these physiological systems as molecular model systems. In this study, we sequenced and performed de novo assembly for the nervous system transcriptomes of two decapod crustaceans: the Jonah crab (Cancer borealis) and the American lobster (Homarus americanus). RESULTS: Forty-two thousand, seven hundred sixty-six and sixty thousand, two hundred seventy-three contigs were assembled from C. borealis and H. americanus respectively, representing 9,489 and 11,061 unique coding sequences. From these transcripts, genes associated with neural function were identified and manually curated to produce a characterization of multiple gene families important for nervous system function. This included genes for 34 distinct ion channel types, 17 biogenic amine and 5 GABA receptors, 28 major transmitter receptor subtypes including glutamate and acetylcholine receptors, and 6 gap junction proteins - the Innexins. CONCLUSION: With this resource, crustacean model systems are better poised for incorporation of modern genomic and molecular biology technologies to further enhance the interrogation of fundamentals of nervous system function.

  • In wild-type populations of animals with similar performance profiles, 2-7 fold variations in the mRNA expression of most cellular components are seen in identified neurons across individuals.

    “In wild-type populations of animals with similar performance profiles, 2-7 fold variations in the mRNA expression of most cellular components are seen in identified neurons across individuals [25-30]”

    From A feature and not a bug: Replication failures can lead to new biology (2026) · cites this paper as [29]

    The Discussion discusses gene-expression differences across tissues and says this study provides a reference for subsequent expression analyses. Neither it nor the retrieved Results passages report 2–7-fold mRNA variation across individuals with similar performance profiles. Searches for that range and for variability in identified neurons found relevant titles in the References, but no passage in this paper stating the claimed finding. (LLM, conf=0.74)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
