Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The ocean provides diverse bioactive compounds such as proteins, peptides, saccharides, and lipids, which are synthesized and processed by enzymes within marine organisms. Marine bioactive compounds have been used to benefit people's lives and health, and in recent years, their applications in functional foods and medicines have attracted much attention.
The Special Issue “Marine Proteins and Enzymes: Bioactivities and Medicinal Applications” focuses on the biosynthesis and bioprocessing of proteins, peptides, oligosaccharides, and lipids from marine organisms to convert them into high-value products using enzymes for applications in functional foods, medicine, and industrial products.
We extend an invitation to you to submit your original research papers and review papers to the Special Issue “Marine Proteins and Enzymes: Bioactivities and Medicinal Applications”. We welcome research on the bioprocessing of marine bioactive compounds from the perspectives of biochemistry, biotechnology, enzymology, and microbiology.
