The transcriptomic response of the coral Acropora digitifera to a competent Symbiodinium strain: the symbiosome as an arrested early phagosome
- A. Mohamed, V. Cumbo, +8 authors D. Miller
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology
- 1 July 2016
Despite the ecological significance of the relationship between reef‐building corals and intracellular photosynthetic dinoflagellates of the genus Symbiodinium, very little is known about the… Expand
Stepwise Evolution of Coral Biomineralization Revealed with Genome-Wide Proteomics and Transcriptomics
- T. Takeuchi, L. Yamada, C. Shinzato, H. Sawada, N. Satoh
- Biology, Medicine
- PloS one
- 2 June 2016
Despite the importance of stony corals in many research fields related to global issues, such as marine ecology, climate change, paleoclimatogy, and metazoan evolution, very little is known about the… Expand
Nemertean and phoronid genomes reveal lophotrochozoan evolution and the origin of bilaterian heads
- Yi-Jyun Luo, Miyuki Kanda, +5 authors N. Satoh
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Ecology & Evolution
- 2017
Nemerteans (ribbon worms) and phoronids (horseshoe worms) are closely related lophotrochozoans—a group of animals including leeches, snails and other invertebrates. Lophotrochozoans represent a… Expand
A New Spiralian Phylogeny Places the Enigmatic Arrow Worms among Gnathiferans
- Ferdinand Marlétaz, K. Peijnenburg, Taichiro Goto, N. Satoh, D. Rokhsar
- Biology, Medicine
- Current Biology
- 21 January 2019
Chaetognaths (arrow worms) are an enigmatic group of marine animals whose phylogenetic position remains elusive, in part because they display a mix of developmental and morphological characters… Expand
Metabolic and physiological interdependencies in the Bathymodiolus azoricus symbiosis
- Ruby Ponnudurai, M. Kleiner, +9 authors S. Markert
- Biology, Medicine
- The ISME Journal
- 1 November 2016
The hydrothermal vent mussel Bathymodiolus azoricus lives in an intimate symbiosis with two types of chemosynthetic Gammaproteobacteria in its gills: a sulfur oxidizer and a methane oxidizer. Despite… Expand
Chitin-based barrier immunity and its loss predated mucus-colonization by indigenous gut microbiota
- K. Nakashima, Satoshi Kimura, +11 authors N. Satoh
- Biology, Medicine
- Nature Communications
- 24 August 2018
Mammalian gut microbiota are integral to host health. However, how this association began remains unclear. We show that in basal chordates the gut space is radially compartmentalized into a luminal… Expand
Chordate Origins and Evolution: The Molecular Evolutionary Road to Vertebrates
- N. Satoh
- Biology
- 14 July 2016
Chordate Origins and Evolution: The Molecular Evolutionary Road to Vertebrates focuses on echinoderms (starfish, sea urchins, and others), hemichordates (acorn worms, etc.), cephalochordates… Expand

The Mesoderm-Forming Gene brachyury Regulates Ectoderm-Endoderm Demarcation in the Coral Acropora digitifera
- Y. Yasuoka, C. Shinzato, N. Satoh
- Biology, Medicine
- Current Biology
- 7 November 2016
Blastoporal expression of the T-box transcription factor gene brachyury is conserved in most metazoans [1, 2]. Its role in mesoderm formation has been intensively studied in vertebrates [3-6].… Expand
The Roles of Introgression and Climate Change in the Rise to Dominance of Acropora Corals
- Yafei Mao, E. Economo, N. Satoh
- Biology, Medicine
- Current Biology
- 5 November 2018
Reef-building corals provide the structural basis for one of Earth's most spectacular and diverse-but increasingly threatened-ecosystems. Modern Indo-Pacific reefs are dominated by species of the… Expand
ORTHOSCOPE: An Automatic Web Tool for Phylogenetically Inferring Bilaterian Orthogroups with User-Selected Taxa
Abstract Identification of orthologous or paralogous relationships of coding genes is fundamental to all aspects of comparative genomics. For accurate identification of orthologs among deeply… Expand
