• Sand dollars in their mature form have few natural predators, though ocean pouts and sunflower starfish are known to eat them on occasion.
• This was achieved using a chinook salmon gene sequence affecting growth hormones, and a promoter sequence from the ocean pout affecting antifreeze production.
• Among the genes inserted into the noble and exquisitely beautiful king of both stream and dinner plate were those of the ocean pout _ a creature that looks something like it sounds.
• The salmon were transformed with a growth hormone-regulating gene from a promoter from an ocean pout enabling it to grow year-round instead of only during spring and summer.
• The company's bioengineered fish is spliced with a Chinook salmon growth gene and an ocean pout antifreeze gene, which enables the engineered fish to grow four times faster than normal.
• In June 2006, the Unilever company announced that it would use genetically modified yeast to grow antifreeze proteins based on a gene from the ocean pout, and use it to improve the consistency and storage properties of its ice cream brands.
• The new breed of salmon can grow twice as fast as its conventional farmed counterpart because it has genes inserted from Chinook salmon and ocean pout that allow the fish to produce growth hormones year-round, instead of only in warm weather months as normal salmon do.
