- •
Expression profiles of skin mucus lectins in two Anguilla species were compared.
- •
Adult Anguilla marmorata lacked an orthologue of AJL-2 in the skin mucus.
- •
AJL-2 orthologue was expressed in the skin of the juvenile, but not of the adult.
- •
These differences may reflect adaptation of the eels to different habitats.
