Unlocking marine treasures: isolation and mining strategies of natural products from sponge-associated bacteria

초록

Covering: 2019 to early 2025Marine sponges form unique ecosystems through symbiosis with diverse microbial communities, producing natural products including bioactive compounds. This review comprehensively addresses the key steps in the discovery of natural products from sponge-associated microorganisms, encompassing microbial isolation and cultivation, compound identification, and characterisation. Various cultivation methods, such as floating filter cultivation, microcapsule-based cultivation, and in situ systems, are examined to highlight their applications and strategies for overcoming limitations of conventional approaches. Additionally, the integration of genome-based methodologies and compound screening is explored to enhance the discovery of novel bioactive substances and establish a sustainable platform for natural product research. This review provides insights into the latest trends in sponge-associated microbial research and offers practical perspectives for expanding the utilization of marine biological resources.
