Marine Biotechnology?
Understand basic principles of marine life for: Responsible management of marine resources Social, market and trade development in the marine sector Improved quality of marine products (“healthy food”) Explore new opportunities for marine resources
The deciphering and use of marine biological systems- for industry, the benefit of society and protection of the marine environment
"He who commands the sea has command of everything” (Cicero)

“An Ocean of Opportunities?”Big or small - driven by curiosity - or what?
“What we try to do in science is to get ever closer to nature”"Both in space and time, we seem to be brought near to thatgreat fact — the mystery of mysteries — the first appearance ofnew beings on this earth” (Darwin)
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.It is the source of all true art and science” (Einstein)

The promise of marine biotechnology?
An ocean of opportunities.....
....or a figment of imagination?
Blue biotech: The biotechnology without a market?- Small internal-market? (except aquaculture)
Blue biotech perceived as diverse
Not “technology driven” (imports technologies?)

A Fish Story
Gnotobiotic (germ-free) zebrafishreveal evolutionary conservedresponses to the gut microbiota
Rawls et al., PNAS 2004-1
• Intestinal epithelial cell proliferationstimulated:
• 212 genes regulated by the microbiota
• 59 responses conserved in the mouseintestine
Early colonization of the GI tract maybe responsible for changed metabolism inthe fish larvae

Love the One You’re with: Vertebrate Guts Shape Their MicrobiotaMargaret McFall-Ngai. Cell 2006, 127
Shaping of the Gut Microbiota by Its HostIn the microbiota of conventionally raised mice are introduced into the gut ofgerm-free zebrafish, and conversely, the microbiota of conventionally raisedzebrafish are transplanted into the gut of germ-free mice (Rawls et al., 2006)
Mice and zebrafish naturally have members of bacterial divisions in their gut indifferent proportions and as distinct phylotypes.
When the non-native consortium is introduced into one of these hosts, thehost animal appears to promote a higher proportion of the bacterial group thatis more abundant in its native consortium.

Bacterial modulation of intestinal glycan expressionA molecular foundation for commensalism - tailoring the (fucose-) receptor!
A gut microflora is required to initiate the developmentally regulated program offucosylated glycan production
Fucosylated glycans are induced in adult germ-free mice upon colonization with asingle member of the indigenous gut flora, Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron.
