The SPECIAL project focuses on developing biotechnological methods to produce valuable metabolites and biomaterials from marine sponges. It aims to explore new applications, including potential anticancer drugs and innovative uses of biosilica and collagen.
The SPECIAL project aims at delivering breakthrough technologies for the biotechnological production of cellular metabolites and extracellular biomaterials from marine sponges.
These include a platform technology to produce secondary metabolites from a wide range of sponge species, a novel in vitro method for the production of biosilica and recombinant technology for the production of marine collagen.Research on cellular metabolites will be based upon our recent finding that non-growing sponges…
