Digestive system of gastropods species that have undergone de-torsion, however, the oesophagus may open into the anterior of the stomach, which is therefore reversed from the usual gastropod arrangement. In "Tarebia granifera" the brood pouch is above the oesophagus. There is available an extensive rostrum on the anterior part of the oesophagus in all carnivorous gastropods. Some basal gastropod clades have oesophageal gland. In most species, the stomach itself is a relatively simple sac, and is the main site of digestion. In many herbivores, however, the hind part of the oesophagus is enlarged to form a crop, which, in terrestrial pulmonates, may even replace
Calponin 3, acidic in mouse CC myoblasts inhibited cell fusion during "in vitro" differentiation, whereas "Cnn3" gene knockdown promoted cell fusion and the expression of skeletal muscle myosin. The inhibitory effect of calponin 3 was reversed upon phosphorylation by Rho-associated kinase 1/2 (ROCK1/2). Calponin 3, acidic Calponin 3. acidic is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "CNN3" gene. The "CNN3" gene is located at 1p22-p21 in the human chromosomal genome. "CNN3" gene contains 7 exons and encodes calponin 3, a 36.4-kDa protein consisting of 329 amino acids with isoelectric point (pI) of 5.84. Calponin 3 is known as acidic calponin.
