11. Heterologous Expression of a Putative ClpC Chaperone Gene Leads to Induction of a Host Metabolite
Genome mining provides exciting opportunities for the discovery of natural products. However, in contrast to traditional bioassay-guided approaches, challenges of genome mining include poor or no expression of biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). Additionally, given that thousands of BGCs are now available through extensive genome sequencing, how does one sele

12. Antinociceptive and Anti-inflammatory Activities of Marine Sponges Aplysina Caissara, Haliclona sp. and Dragmacidon Reticulatum
ABSTRACT Marine sponges are a rich source of bioactive natural products with multiple pharmacological properties. In this study, the anti-inflammatory and antinociceptive effects of extracts obtained from Aplysina caissara, Haliclona sp. and Dragmacidon reticulatum were evaluated by using the writhing test and formalin-induced mouse paw edema model in mice.
