| Abstract | The jellyfish Aurelia aurita (Scyphozoa, Cnidaria) is regarded as a cosmopolitan species with a worldwide distribution in most seas, from the poles to tropics. Cnidaria possess two tissue layers: endoderm (gastroderm) and ectoderm separated by mesoglea, which are typically thick for jellyfish. A main component of mesoglea is the novel protein “mesoglein” that we have already described earlier. The protein has a conservative ZP (Zona Pellucida) domain. In the current work, we compare mesoglein and its gene from three jellyfish habitats (the White Sea (WS), Black Sea (BS), and Sea of Japan (SJ)). The pattern of mesoglea protein bands after SDS-PAGE is similar in all samples. Nevertheless, SJ mesoglein M$_{r}$ is 53–55 kDa, while WS and BS mesoglein M$_{r}$ is 47 kDa. Antibodies raised against WSA mesoglein recognize only mesogleins with M$_{r}$ 47 kDa, but not 53–55 kDa, in both immunoblot and immunocytochemistry. Mesogleal cells and elastic fibrils are intensely stained in the mesoglea from both WSA and BSA, but not from SJA.The possibility of gene divergence was tested by PCR with primers specific for the WS mesoglein gene. PCR products of expected length were obtained on a polyA-cDNA template from mesogleal cells of WS and BS jellyfish, but not with cDNA of SJ jellyfish. Our results evidence that there are two different species in the genus Aurelia: aurita inhabits the White and Black Seas, while Aurelia sp. inhabits the Sea of Japan. This is in agreement with the results of comparisons previously done using other methods of molecular biology. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
