Box Jellyfish Alatina alata Has a Circumtropical Distribution

Lawley, Jonathan W.; Ames, Cheryl Lewis; Bentlage, Bastian; Yanagihara, Angel; Goodwill, Roger; Kayal, Ehsan; Hurwitz, Kikiana; Collins, Allen Gilbert (2016)

Species of the box jellyfish (Cubozoa) genus Alatina are notorious for their sting along the beaches of several localities of the Atlantic and Pacific. These species include Alatina alata on the Caribbean Island of Bonaire ...
Cnidarian phylogenetic relationships as revealed by mitogenomics

Kayal, Ehsan; Roure, Béatrice; Philippe, Hervé; Collins, Allen Gilbert; Lavrov, Dennis V. (2013)
Evolution of Linear Mitochondrial Genomes in Medusozoan Cnidarians

Kayal, Ehsan; Bentlage, Bastian; Collins, Allen Gilbert; Kayal, Mohsen; Pirro, Stacy; Lavrov, Dennis V. (2012)

In nearly all animals, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) consists of a single circular molecule that encodes several subunits of the protein complexes involved in oxidative phosphorylation as well as part of the machinery for their ...
First Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequence from a Box Jellyfish Reveals a Highly Fragmented Linear Architecture and Insights into Telomere Evolution

Smith, David Roy; Kayal, Ehsan; Yanagihara, Angel A.; Collins, Allen Gilbert; Pirro, Stacy; Keeling, Patrick J. (2012)

Animal mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs) are typically single circular chromosomes, with the exception of those from medusozoan cnidarians (jellyfish and hydroids), which are linear and sometimes fragmented. Most medusozoans ...
Insights into the transcriptional and translational mechanisms of linear organellar chromosomes in the box jellyfish <I>Alatina alata</I> (Cnidaria: Medusozoa: Cubozoa)

Kayal, Ehsan; Bentlage, Bastian; Collins, Allen Gilbert (2016)

BACKGROUND: In most animals, the mitochondrial genome is characterized by its small size, organization into a single circular molecule, and a relative conservation of the number of encoded genes. In box jellyfish (Cubozoa, ...
Phylogenetic analysis of higher-level relationships within Hydroidolina (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) using mitochondrial genome data and insight into their mitochondrial transcription

Kayal, Ehsan; Bentlage, Bastian; Cartwright, Paulyn; Yanagihara, Angel A.; Lindsay, Dhugal J.; Hopcroft, Russell R.; Collins, Allen Gilbert (2015)
