Species-Specific Proteins in the Oviducts of Snail Sibling Species: Proteotranscriptomic Study of <i>Littorina fabalis</i> and <i>L. obtusata</i>
Genus <i>Littorina</i> subgenus <i>Neritrema</i> (Mollusca, Caenogastropoda) includes the “obtusata” group of closely related species (<i>Littorina obtusata</i> and <i>L. fabalis</i>). The anatomy of the adult reproductive system (pallial oviduct) is t...

Genus <i>Littorina</i> subgenus <i>Neritrema</i> (Mollusca, Caenogastropoda) includes the “obtusata” group of closely related species (<i>Littorina obtusata</i> and <i>L. fabalis</i>). The anatomy of the adult reproductive system (pallial oviduct) is the only reliable feature used for species identification in females of these species. Reproductive system anatomy and reproduction-associated proteins often diverge between sibling species. Despite being of high evolutionary interest, the molecular basis of this divergence remains poorly understood. We performed proteotranscriptomic comparison of oviducts of <i>L. obtusata</i> and <i>L. fabalis</i> by RNA-seq on Illumina HiSeq 2500 and two-dimensional protein electrophoresis (2D DIGE) with MS/MS identification of the species-specific proteins.
