Biosynthesis of Marine Biotoxin

The study of marine biotoxins has important theoretical value and practical application prospects. On the one hand, it can provide a wealth of tool drugs for neurophysiological research and cell regulation molecular mechanisms. For example, most of the bioactive substances that specifically act on ion channels come from marine organisms. Toxins, including conotoxin, puffer toxin and cigatoxin. On the other hand, it is of great significance to overcome major and difficult diseases faced by human beings. For example, some marine biological toxins have significant anti-cancer, anti-tumor, and anti-virus activity. There are many active substances in marine organisms, and a considerable number of compounds with known structures have not been studied in physiological and pharmacological aspects. The ocean is a huge and complex biological world, which will inevitably lead to the diverse distribution of chemical components (including toxins) of marine organisms. On the other hand, it also reflects that there are indeed difficulties in the research of marine drugs, such as very little content, difficulty in separation, purification, and synthesis.
