Abstract：
:The presence of specific protein types in claws and beaks of turtles is poorly known. The present immunological study describes the localization of some of the main corneous beta proteins (CBPs) coded in the epidermal differentiation complex of turtles. Three antibodies here utilized revealed that glycine-, cysteine-, tyrosine-, and valine-rich CBPs are present in differentiating keratinocytes of the beak and of the dorsal (unguis) and ventral (sub-unguis) sides of the claw in different species, semi-aquatic and terrestrial. These proteins provide mechanical resilience to the horny material of claws and beaks through the formation of numerous -S-S- bonds and also hydrophobicity that contributes to preserve wearing of the horny material. The thicker corneous layer of the unguis is made of elongated and partially merged corneocytes, and no or few cells desquamate superficially. Unknown junctional proteins may contribute to maintain corneocytes connected one to another. In contrast, corneocytes of the sub-unguis show an elongated but lenticular shape and form a looser corneous layer whose cells remain separate and desquamate superficially. This suggests that other specific corneous proteins are present in the unguis in comparison with the sub-unguis to determine this different compaction. The wearing process present in the sub-unguis creates a loss of tissue that may favor the slow by continuous apical migration of corneocytes from the unguis into the initial part of the sub-unguis. Beak corneocytes form a compact corneous layer like the unguis but numerous superficial cells desquamate on both outer (epidermal) and inner (oral) sides.
