The sequence encoding the CYP5164A3 of the brown alga Ectocarpus siliculosus (Stramenopiles, SAR) was heterologously expressed in E. coli cells. The resulting recombinant CYP74 clan-related protein CYP5164A3 possessed a selective activity towards the α-linolenic acid 13(S)-hydroperoxide (13-HPOTE) and eicosapentaenoic acid 15(S)-hydroperoxide (15-HPEPE). The major products were the heterobicyclic oxylipins. For instance, the 13-HPOTE was converted into plasmodiophorols A, B, and C formed at about 14:3:2 ratio. Plasmodiophorols A-C have been recently described as the products of enzyme hydroperoxide bicyclase CYP50918A1 of cercozoan Plasmodiophora brassicae (Rhizaria, SAR). Furthermore, an unknown compound 1 was detected. Purified product 1 (Me) was identified as a novel substituted 3-propenyl-6-oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane based on its MS and NMR spectral data. Conversion of 15-HPEPE by CYP5164A3 resulted in products 7 and 8, analogous to plasmodiophorols A and B. This work uncovered the CYP5164A3 as the first hydroperoxide bicyclase in brown algae. Apparently, this enzyme plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of heterobicyclic oxylipins like hybridalactone, ecklonilactones, and related natural products, widespread in brown algae.

Drought is a significant environmental stressor that induces changes in the physiological, morphological, biochemical, and molecular traits of plants, ultimately resulting in reduced plant growth and crop productivity. Seaweed extracts are thought to be effective in mitigating the effects of drought stress on plants. In this study, we investigated the impact of crude extract (CE), and polysaccharides (PS) derived from the brown macroalgae Fucus spiralis (Heterokontophyta, Phaeophyceae) applied at 5% (v/v) and 0.

Zn is a common heavy metal pollutant in water bodies and accounts for the largest proportion of heavy metal pollutants in many rivers entering the sea. This study investigated the growth and physiological response characteristics of Sargassum fusiforme under different divalent Zn ion concentration gradients. We observed that low concentration Zn treatment (<2 mg L) exerted no significant effect on the growth rate, photosynthesis, and nitrogen metabolism-related indicators of S.

Currently, high-salt diets have become one of the world's biggest dietary crisis and long-term high-salt diets are seriously detrimental to human health. In response to this situation, the present study proposed a saltiness enhancement strategy using alginate, which is a dietary fibre from brown algae and has many health benefits, such as regulating intestinal microbiota, anti-hypertension and anti-obesity. The comparison of alginates with different viscosities showed that alginate of 1000-1500 cps at a concentration of 1.

In many multicellular organisms, sexual development is not determined by XX/XY or ZW/ZZ systems but by U/V sex chromosomes. In U/V systems, sex determination occurs in the haploid phase, with U chromosomes in females and V chromosomes in males. Here, we explore several male, female, and partially sex-reversed male lines of giant kelp to decipher how U/V sex chromosomes and autosomes initiate male versus female development.
