Abstract:
The Proteomic and Microbiology unit is a member of the Research Institute for Biosciences and performs genetic and metabolic analyses on different types of organisms. This a.o. includes molecular studies, proteomic characterisations, functional analyses, etc.

In the marine field, the group studies topics such as:
  • identification and quantification of carbonylated proteins in the UVB-resistant marine bacterium Photobacterium angustum S14;
  • links between bacterial communities in marine sediments and trace metal geochemistry;
  • characterisation of the carbohydrate fraction of the temporary adhesive secreted by the tube feet of the sea star Asterias rubens;
  • LAS degradability by marine biofilms derived from seawater in Spain and Sweden;
  • metaproteogenomic insights of contaminated microbial communities in marine and freshwater environments;
  • efflux of metals from contaminated marine sediments due to bacterial remineralisation of phytodetritus.
