Bioactive Pigments fromMarine Bacteria: Applications and Physiological Roles
Research into natural products from the marine environment, including microorganisms, has rapidly increased over the past two decades. Despite the enormous di.culty in isolating and harvesting marine bacteria, microbial metabolites are increasingly attractive to science because of their broad-ranging pharmacological activities, especially those with unique color pigments. This current review paper gives an overview of the pigmented natural compounds isolated from bacteria of marine origin, based on accumulated data in the literature.We review the biological activities ofmarine compounds, including recent advances in the study of pharmacological e.ects and other commercial applications, in addition to the biosynthesis and physiological roles of associated pigments. Chemical structures of the bioactive compounds discussed are also presented.
