Title: FISHPROT - A Fish Proteomics Database for Biomarker Discovery and Evaluation
Objectives

  1. Development of biomarkers for biomonitoring the tropical open water ecosystems.
  2. Bioprospecting novel proteins/bioactive substances with pharmacological and therapeutic importance in aquatic organisms, especially fish , through proteomics.
  3. Assessing the (deleterious) effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals on aquatic organisms on physiological, reproductive and immune functions of fishes native to Indian waters
  4. Identification of biomarker for acquired thermo tolerance
Immediate benefits:

  1. Generation of reference proteome maps for fish tissues
  2. Identification of pollution biomarkers suitable for biomonitoring the tropical rivers
Long term benefits

  1. Identification of novel proteins / bioactive substances
  2. Strengthening proteomics technology in aquaculture & fisheries for harnessing the benefits of biotechnological application.
  3. Generating well trained human resources in Fish Proteomics.
