Molecular investigation of carrageenan production in Kappaphycus alvarezii in different culture conditions: a proteomic approach

Carrageenan is a polysaccharide extracted from different species of red seaweed for use in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries. In Malaysia, κ-carrageenan is obtained through extraction from the tropical red seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii. The use of tissue culture techniques in the propagation...

description Carrageenan is a polysaccharide extracted from different species of red seaweed for use in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics industries. In Malaysia, κ-carrageenan is obtained through extraction from the tropical red seaweed Kappaphycus alvarezii. The use of tissue culture techniques in the propagation of K. alvarezii has proven to be effective in solving cultivation problems and produced high-quality seedlings and providing a sustainable source of better quality carrageenan. In order to understand the molecular mechanisms behind that, a proteomic investigation was conducted comparing the changes in protein expression in tissue-cultured and liquid-cultured K. alvarezii after 60 days of cultivation. Proteomic analysis was used to study the changes in the protein expression level between liquid-cultured and tissue-cultured of the red seaweed K. alvarezii.
