The ribbed mussel (Mytilus californianus) occurs in the in the rocky intertidal zone along the Pacific coast of North America where it experiences greatly varying environmental conditions in terms of temperature and hypoxia, stressors that are known to induce oxidative stress. It has been hypothesized that while under acute heat stress, related Mytilus congeners undergo a shift in redox potential through the reduction of NADH fueled respiration pathways to the production of the reducing agent NADPH as a potential defensive mechanism against the production of reactive oxygen species. In addition, it has been hypothesized that sirtuins (a family of NAD-dependent deacetylases) might be involved in the regulation of this metabolic transition. T...
