Pearl sac is the tissue that secretes proteins resulting into artificial pearl formation, a highly controlled biomineralization process similar to development of inner shell regulated by the mantle. We present here the pearl sac transcriptome of Pinctada fucata martensii using massively parallel pyrosequencing. A total of 21 729 putative unique transcripts were assembled and annotated. Twenty‐three...
Pearl oyster, Pinctada martensii, is a marine bivalve species widely distributed in tropic and subtropic marine coasts. Mantle is the special tissue of P. martensii that secretes biomineralization proteins inducing shell deposition as well as iridescent nacre both in the inner shell and artificial nucleus. The pearl oyster is very efficient for artificial pearl production and is therefore an ideal...
