3 Outline Marine Diversity, Evolution and Environment Marine Models and Biotech : Marine Macroalgae Polysaccharides/Enzymes From Academia to Biotech Development 4 projects funded by the French government & CE Bioresources and biotech IDEALG OCEANOMICS Infrastructures EMBRC GREENSTARS

4 Marine Diversity and Evolution Oceans.. the craddle of life Prokaryotic life originated in the oceans about 3.6 billions years ago Eukaryotic life: between 3 and 3. billions years ago Land became colonized by fungi about billion years ago and green plants only 700 million years ago.

6 Marine diversity and environment COOH Habitat Diversity Salinity Pressure Light Temperature Tides Abiotic stress Signalling/Communication Secondary metabolites Biotic stress Grazing Biofilm Larval settlement

7 POLYSACCHARIDES from MARINE ALGAE From Basic Research to new developments in Biotechnology From the study of cell wall to the discovery of new active molecules FROM ACADEMIA to the INDUSTRY

10 POLYSACCHARIDES from MARINE ALGAE + Specific enzymes (hydrolases) from Marine Bacteria A large diversity of Oligosaccharides New Biological activities

12 New Enzyme discovery in the Pre genomic Era Identification of polysaccharide hydrolases Given the scarcity of gene sequences with a validated activity, classical purification still remains the most direct way for expanding our catalogue of enzymes acting on algal polysaccharides.
