## Abstract Metallothionein presence and amount were determined in the unfertilized eggs of six sea urchin species by silver saturation assay and gelβchromatography of cell extracts. The results showed high levels of metallothionein in the egg cytoplasm of the two Mediterranean species Paracentrotu
## Abstract Certain experimental manipulations with sea urchin oocytes, eggs, and early embryos result in induction of cell death. We were interested in whether or not these cells posessed functional apoptotic machinery, and whether cellular demise under certain experimental conditions is due to ac
