Biotechnological Applications of Seafood Proteins and Other Nitrogenous Compounds

  • Chapter

Abstract

Marine biotechnology is a rapidly growing field that has taken on new meaning as a result of recent advances in natural product chemistry, comparative biochemistry, molecular biology, and gene technology. In terms of protein modification, traditional marine biotechnology can be likened to a “sledge hammer approach.” Fermentation processes, like fish sauce, fish silage, “biological” fish protein concentrate, matjes her-ring, and fermented squid, extensively alter protein and other constit-uents by endogenous microbial action, by autolytic enzymes, or by ill-defined enzyme additives. These “artlike” processes are time-honored ways to preserve and/or transform underutilized fish and fishery by-products into useful food and feed products. Modern marine biotechnology includes the transformation and/or recovery of “value-added” specialty products from marine organisms. For example, fish protein may be treated with particular proteinases to produce specific emulsifiers, surfactants, flavorings, and pharmaceuticals. Natural products from marine organisms may possess unique properties. Examples of products that may be recovered from marine organisms include enzymes, vaccines, antibiotics, amino acids, antifreeze proteins, and hormones.
