The document summarizes research characterizing the toll-interacting protein (TOLLIP) gene in the black abalone (Haliotis cracherodii). The researcher obtained partial TOLLIP sequence information for black abalone and identified other toll-like receptor genes. Quantitative PCR analysis found no significant difference in TOLLIP expression levels between control and bacterium-exposed black abalone digestive gland and gill tissues. Future work will further explore the toll-like receptor pathway and compare laboratory results to field data.

16. Results: TOLLIP Expression in Digestive Gland Tissue Five months after initial exposure. N=8 for control groups, N=9 exposed groups. Means were not significantly different (p > 0.05).
17. Results: TOLLIP Expression in Gill Tissue Eight months after initial exposure. N = 6 for both treatment groups. Means were not significantly different (p > 0.05).
18. Results: Correlation of TOLLIP Expression in and Bacterial Loads No significant correlations between TOLLIP expression and bacterial loads (p > 0.05).
