The marine free-living organism Trichoplax (phylum Placozoa) resembles a unicellular amoeba in shape and type of movement. Trichoplax diverged from the main evolutionary tree in the Neoproterozoic Era. Trichoplax provides one of the simplest models of multicellular animals and a strong example of how cells of an organism interact to form an ensemble during its development and movement. Two orthologs of the mouse Piezo1 protein (6B3R) were found in two Trichoplax haplotypes, H1 and H2, as a result of a search for similar sequences in the NCBI databases. Spatial models of the respective proteins XP_002112008.1 and RDD46920.1 were created via a structural alignment with 6KG7 (mouse Piezo2) template. Their domain structures were analyzed, and a limited graph of protein-protein interactions was constructed for the hypothetical mechanosensor XP_002112008.1. The possibility of signal transduction from the mechanoreceptor to membrane complexes, the cytoplasm, and the cell nucleus was shown. Trichoplax mechanoreceptors were assumed to play a role in perception of force stimuli from neighbor cells and the environment. Based on the results, the primitive Trichoplax organism was proposed as the simplest multicellular model of mechanical and morphogenetic movements. |
