Project description:Phagocytosis is a conserved cellular mechanism for food uptake, defense and general animal-microbe interactions in metazoans. How the discrimination and subsequent processing of native and foreign microbes is facilitated remains largely unknown in marine invertebrates. Thereto, we combined a recently developed phagocytic assay with proteomics analysis to compare the phagocytic activity of the sponge Halichondria panicea upon encounter with a native (i.e., isolated from H. panicea; Hal 281) and a foreign (i.e., isolated from Nematostella vectensis; NJ1) Vibrio isolate.
Project description:The outcomes of this project are to identify bioactive marine natural products from Irish marine life. This specific dataset contains LC-MS/MS spectra from tissue of the marine sponge Halichondria panicea. Files are part of the Metabolights dataset MTBLS874.
