High-throughput identification of heavy metal binding proteins from the byssus of chinese green mussel (Perna viridis) by combination of transcriptome and proteome sequencing.

The Byssus, which is derived from the foot gland of mussels, has been proved to bind heavy metals effectively, but few studies have focused on the molecular mechanisms behind the accumulation of heavy metals by the byssus. In this study, we integrated high-throughput transcriptome and proteome seque...
