The bioprospecting of sea anemone tissues and secretions has revealed that they are natural libraries of polypeptides with diverse biological activities that can be utilized to develop of biotechnological tools with potential medical and industrial applications. This study conducted a proteomic analysis of crude venom extracts from Verrill, 1869, and Duchassaing & Michelotti, 1860. The obtained data allowed us to identify 201 polypeptides, of which 39% were present in both extracts. Among the obtained sequences, hydrolase-type enzymes, oxidoreductases, transferases, heat shock proteins, adhesion proteins, and protease inhibitors, among others, were identified. Interaction analysis and functional annotation indicated that these proteins are primarily involved in endoplasmic reticulum metabolic processes such as carbon metabolism and protein processing. In addition, several proteins related to oxidative stress were identified, including superoxide dismutase, peroxiredoxins, thioredoxin, and glutathione oxidase. Our results provide novel information on the polypeptide composition of the crude venom extract from sea anemones, which can be utilized to develop molecules for therapeutic tools and industrial applications.
从海葵组织和分泌物的生物勘探中发现,它们是具有多种生物活性的多肽的天然文库,可以利用这些多肽来开发具有潜在医学和工业应用的生物技术工具。本研究对 1869 年的 Verrill 和 1860 年的 Duchassaing & Michelotti 的粗毒液提取物进行了蛋白质组学分析。获得的数据使我们能够鉴定出 201 种多肽,其中 39%存在于两种提取物中。在所获得的序列中,鉴定出了水解酶型酶、氧化还原酶、转移酶、热休克蛋白、粘附蛋白和蛋白酶抑制剂等。相互作用分析和功能注释表明,这些蛋白质主要参与内质网代谢过程,如碳代谢和蛋白质加工。此外,还鉴定出了几种与氧化应激相关的蛋白质,包括超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化物酶、硫氧还蛋白和谷胱甘肽氧化酶。我们的研究结果提供了海葵粗毒液提取物中多肽组成的新信息,可用于开发治疗工具和工业应用的分子。
