Project description:We designed a new specific mRNA microarray targeting a subset of genes (748) of the diazotrophs Richelia intracellularis and Calothrix rhizosoleniae (genomes RintRC01, RintHH01, RintHM01 and CalSC01) which associate with diatom hosts. The aim was to be able to describe the gene expressions of genes related to several metabolic pathways and how they possibly differed between the closely related strains based on environment and host association. To better understand how the different environments might affect gene expressions, the samples were taken in depth profiles, at night and day, during a cruise in the South China Sea.
Project description:we applied metaproteomic approach to capture proteins from three size-fractionated microbial communities at the DCM in the basin of the South China Sea. The deep recovery of proteomes from a marine DCM plankton assemblage provides the highest resolution of metabolic activities as well as microbial niche differentiation, revealing a spectrum of biological processes carrying out by microbes at DCM of the SCS.
Project description:Deep seas marine fungus SST2-VLC fractions. Isolated from soil sediment from South Shetland Trench, Antarctica (-58.90865, -61.122976, ~5100 m). Large scale fermentation on rice medium followed by subsequent methanol extraction. Finally, vacuum liquid chromatography was completed using an increasing gradient from hexane-dichloromethane-methanol.
Project description:Chemical analysis of the compounds present in sediment, although informative, often is not indicative of the downstream biological effects that these contaminants exert on resident aquatic organisms. More direct molecular methods are needed to determine if marine life is affected by exposure to sediments. In this study, we used an aquatic multispecies microarray and q-PCR to investigate the effects on gene expression in juvenile sea bream (Sparus aurata) of two contaminated sediments defined as sediment 1 and 2 respectively, from marine areas in Northern Italy.
Project description:Analysis of U251 glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) cells treated with a new culcita novaeguineae asterosaponion, CN-3. A new asterosaponin was isolated from culcita novaeguineae, an abundant marine resource in the south China sea. The asterosaponin induced significant growth inhibition with a 50% inhibitory concentration at 48 h of 2.013 μg/mL in U251MG cells. 1.8μg/mL of the asterosaponin reduced U251 MG cells viability from 100 % to 42.5% (24 h), 37.4% (48 h) and 52.1% (72 h). In this study, a microarray analysis was performed using RNA prepared from U251MG GBM cells treated with the asterosaponion. These data revealed that 661 genes had significant differential expressions.
