Streptococcus parauberis is a coccoid, nonmotile, alpha-hemolytic, Gram-positive bacterium of the Streptococcaceae family. Streptococcus parauberis strain KCTC11980 was isolated from the kidney of a diseased olive flounder collected from an aquaculture farm on Jeju Island in 2010. The 2.12-Mb genome sequence consists of 44 large contigs in 16 scaffolds and contains 2,214 predicted protein-coding genes, with a G+C content of 35.4%.

Two new cembrane-derived tricyclic diterpenes belonging to the sarcophytin family, namely 4-hydroxy-chatancin () and sarcotoroid (), together with two known related ones ( and ), were isolated from the soft coral collected off Ximao Island in the South China Sea. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, a quantum mechanical nuclear magnetic resonance (QM-NMR) method, a time-dependent density functional theory electronic circular dichroism (TDDFT-ECD) calculation, X-ray diffraction analysis, and comparison with the reported data in the literature. A plausible biosynthetic pathway of compounds - was proposed, involving undergoing a transannular Diels-Alder cycloaddition.

Article Synopsis
- The study identifies and analyzes the Peroxiredoxin-5 (PRDX5) gene in starry flounder using next-generation sequencing and confirms its sequence through cloning and alignment.
- It reports that PsPRDX5 mRNA is expressed in all tissues of healthy flounder with unique expression patterns for different tissues.
- Upon infection with viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) and Streptococcus parauberis, PsPRDX5 expression changes significantly, indicating its role in the immune response to different pathogens.

A novel amide alkaloid, bursatamide A (1), featuring an unprecedented propyl-hexahydronaphthalene carbon framework, was isolated from the infrequently studied sea hare Bursatella leachi, alongside a new 3-phenoxypropanenitrile alkaloid, bursatellin B (2), and twelve known compounds. The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated through comprehensive spectroscopic data analyses, while their relative and absolute configurations (ACs) were established through total synthesis and a series of quantum chemical calculations, including calculated electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) methods, and DP4+ probability analyses. Bursatamide A (1) demonstrated inhibitory effects against the human pathogenic bacteria Listeria monocytogenes and Vibrio cholerae.

Article Synopsis
- LEAP-2 is an important antimicrobial peptide found in the liver of olive flounder, playing a key role in the fish's immune response, especially during infections.
- * Researchers cloned the LEAP-2 gene and produced it in E. coli, finding that its expression increases in the liver and head kidney when fish are infected with the bacterium Edwadrsiella piscicida.
- * The purified recombinant LEAP-2 showed significant antibacterial properties against various bacteria, disrupting their membranes and enhancing effectiveness when used alongside other antibiotics, indicating its potential as a therapeutic agent against infections.
