Abstract	Ridgeia piscesae, living around the extremely harsh hydrothermal vent in deep sea, is an ideal model for studying the adaptative mechanism to extreme environment. For insights of its molecular characteristics, a cDNA library of R. piscesae was constructed. A total of 879 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were sequenced and 199 genes were identified for the first time. They were found to be involved in basal metabolism, adaptation and defense, or signal transduction. Among them, we found 23 various chitin-binding proteins, which are the major component of the chitinous tube that prevents the tubeworms from predators and surrounding extreme environment. Additionally, high polymorphism also exists in other genes, such as myohemerythrin, lysozyme. The gene-expression profile might help to further understand the molecular basis of tubeworm physiology. It will also lay a good foundation for functional studies on the adaptation to extreme environments.
