Predominance of Spirastrella inconstans Protein over Enzymes of Marine Bacteria against MRSA

Fisherman community people will have significant value if they used powder form of marine organism for wound healing caused by MRSA. The bioactivity was more prevalent in sponge, Spirastrella inconstans compared to other marine organism. The protein was fractioned by ammonium sulphate precipitation method and purified using dialysis. About 1000 μl of dialysate were loaded on Sephadex G-50 chromatographic column and purified 75 fractions at each percentage of saturation were collected. The fraction no. 3, 4 (40% saturation) and no. 4 (60% saturation) bears maximum protein content. Amount of protein content was estimated in UV-Vis Spectrophotometer, preliminary detection of compound was carried out by TLC. Two fractions were efficient and their Rf values were found to be similar to that of glutamic acid. The molecular weight of protein was calculated as 3 000 Da by SDS-PAGE. Marine bacterial cultures were isolated and enzymes (amylase, DNase, esculinase, lipase, gelatinase and alginase) were produced and lipase bearing maximum activity was treated against MRSA. Compared to other marine organism, sponge protein obtained during our period of study was effective.


Introduction
The marine ecosystem represents 95% of the biosphere, and all except one of the 33 animal phyla are represented in aquatic environments.Most sessile marine invertebrates contain a primitive immune system and produce toxic chemicals as a form of defense.Many of these products act as regulators of specific biological functions.Some of them have pharmacological activity due to their specific interactions with receptors and enzymes.Because these substances get diluted by seawater, they need to highly potent on a molar basis, and also have to retain a relatively low solubility.The development of marine compounds as therapeutic agents is still in its infancy due to the lack of analogous ethno-medical history as compared with terrestrial habitats, together with the relative technical difficulties in collecting marine organisms (Amador et al., 2003).
Enzymes are biocatalysts which assist numerous highly diverse reactions.They have found applications in various domains including therapeutics.It has been reported that molecules of marine origin may differ in properties from their terrestrial counterparts.Marine microorganisms (epibionts and endo-symbionts), due to the unusual niche in which they are found are also being explored for therapeutically and industrially important molecules.Enzymes from theses symbionts perhaps have characteristics such as heat tolerance, cryo-tolerance, pH tolerance, metal tolerance etc (Tonima et al., 2008).
Sponges possess an efficient chemical defense system to inhibit bacterial growth.Triggered by ecological constraints, Porifera developed a large variety of biologically highly active compounds that were shaped during the last 1 billion years for optimal specificity and activity.Second, sponges are provided with efficient humoral and cellular defense or immune mechanism that share, at the sequence level, surprisingly high similarity with the immune molecules found in humans.Third, a mechanism in these animals eliminates microorganisms by engulfing them through phagocytosis (Schroder et al., 2003).
The rich diversity in bioactive compounds from sponge has provided molecules that interfere with the pathogenesis of a disease at many different points, which increase the chance of developing selective drug against specific targets.The secondary metabolites are usually present in trace amounts, and natural stocks are too small to sustain the development of widely available medicines.The current metabolites are to study the feasibility of pharmaceuticals from sponges at a large-scale.A combined approach of genetically modified bacterial fermentation (to produce a precursor molecule) followed by a limited number of chemical steps to produce molecules that are derived from sponge chemicals to develop medicines from sponge metabolites that are present in low concentration (Ravichandran et al., 2007).
Bioprospecting of marine organisms as source of bioactive metabolites that may be directly utilized as drugs or serve as lead structures for drug development started in the late 1960s.Boobathy et al. (2009) reported that in the Gulf of Mannar and Palk Bay a maximum of 275 species of sponges have been recorded.The rapid development of the pharmaceutical market has brought about a bloom of information regarding various toxins native to the sponges.Recently various technologies developed to produce novel products from marine sponges; these could contribute to human healthcare.
Sponges were mostly found in Gulf of Mannar, located on the southeastern tip of India in the state of Tamilnadu.It is the first marine biosphere reserve in all of South and Southeast Asia, extending from Rameswaram Island to Tuticorin in a NE-SW direction to a distance of 140 km with a width of 25 km.It comprises 21 islands running almost parallel to the coastline between latitude 8°47'N and 9°15'N and longitude 78°12'E and 79°14'E with three distinct marine ecosystems namely corals, sea grass and mangroves.Around 3 600 species of fauna and flora have been identified including approximately 108 species of sponges (Limna et al., 2010).
The number of natural products isolated from marine organism increases rapidly and now exceeded 18 000 by 2007.They can be considered as "microbial fermenters" that hold a largely untapped potential for therapeutics (Microbiologists are highly fascinated by sponges, as they are associated with enormous amounts of microorganisms Satheeshkumar et al., 2010).
The aim of this research was to carry out laboratory studies on the production, purification and characterization of enzyme from marine bacteria (from marine sediment and water) and marine sponge, Spirastrella inconstans against MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus), isolated from fisherman wound.The result of the hypothesis shows that activity of marine bacteria was less efficient, when compared to that of proteins from Spirastrella inconstans, which is initially considered as may or may not have bioactive compound.

Isolation of Marine Bacteria from Sediment Sample
Collected soil sediment (1.0 gm) and marine water samples at east and west coast region in India using clean and sterile container.Pour plating method was followed in marine agar, TCBS and Zobell Marine agar plates.Further microbiological analyses were carried out using biochemical characterization.

Isolation of Marine Bacteria from Rat Fish
Rat fish (Clarias batrachus) was isolated from marine source of Kanyakumari region.Dorso-ventral region of the Clarias batrachus was dissected, to remove the digestive system.The small intestine region was homogenized and the suspension 10 -1 was used for isolation of gut flora.Serial dilution technique (Nagvenkar et al., 2006), followed by pour plating method using tryptic soya agar plates (Tahere et al., 2008).

Screening of Lipolytic Enzymes
a. Lipase identification and production: Lipase was screened by using Rhodamine B agar (Anshu et al., 2002) and Sprit blue agar method (Gisela, 1987); production was carried out by inoculating colony in 10 ml olive oil broth and incubated at 37°C on a shaker at 240 rpm for 24 hrs. 5 ml of the culture was inoculated in 100 ml of fresh fermentation medium, incubated at 37°C for 96 hrs in at 100 rpm, centrifuged at 10 000 rpm for 30 min at 4°C.The supernatant was used as the source of extracellular enzyme.b.Lipase assay by olive oil substrate emulsion method (Titration method): Assay mixture with 0.1 ml of substrate emulsion, 0.9 ml of 0.2 M Potassium Phosphate buffer pH 7.0 and 0.2 ml of aliquot were incubated at 55°C for 30 min.Terminated by adding 2.0 ml of acetone-ethanol mixture.Amount of liberated fatty acid was determined by titration with 0.1 N NaOH using 1% phenolphthalein indicator.1.0 unit of Lipase activity was defined as the amount of enzyme required to liberate 1 M mole equivalent fatty acid/ml/minute of the enzyme extract.

Protease Plate Assay
Proteolytic microorganisms were isolated from gut content on skimmed milk agar, incubated for 72 hrs.Protease was detected by appearance of haloes (Nagvenkar et al., 2006).
2.3.2.1 Utilization of Fish (Scamberomonas Gattatus) Waste for the Isolation of Protease a. Preparation of crude homogenate: Precipitation of protease was done by ammonium sulphate fractionation, using visceral organ waste of fish S. gattatus waste.Molecular weight was determined by SDS-PAGE using 10-13% gradient gel on a continuous buffer system.Assay of Protease was performed calorimetrically using Casein as substrate.Confirmation of Protease by Zymography was carried out using 50% ammonium sulphate precipitated sample.Protease posses the ability to dissolve blood clot and involved in the treatment of wound infection.
Effect of environmental variables on lipase production: Various carbon sources were studied by replacing Tween 80 in production medium with different lipidic and non-lipidic sources.Yeast extract was replaced with various organic and inorganic nitrogen sources.Using 0.5% Tween 80, as carbon source, the effect of oleic acid supplementation on lipase production was done.The pH of the production medium was 5.0-10.0(Prabhdeep et al., 1998).

Activity analysis of lipase:
The SDS-PAGE gels were washed for 20 min in 2.5% Triton X-100 in water, 2.5% Triton X-100 in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and pure PBS.Stained with Coomassie brilliant blue for 20 min and washed.1-5% tributyrin, 0-1% gum arabic, and 100 µg of Streptomycin per ml were added to melted L agar.Gels were laid onto solidified surface and second layer was added to embed the gels, opaque agar was observed.

Detection of lipase activity by zymography:
Proteins were separated on 7.5% (w/v) SDS-PAGE gels.SDS was removed from gels by sequential washes in 0.1% (v/v) Triton X-100 along with water and PBS only for 20 min each.Gels were placed on Nutrient agar plates containing 1% (w/v) tributyrin and overlaid with 10 ml molten Tributyrin agar at 40ºC.Plates were incubated at 37ºC for 24-48 hrs and bands exhibiting lipase activity defined by zones of clearing (Longshaw, 2000).

Crude Sponge Aqueous Extraction
The aqueous extract of sponge was prepared by squeezing the sand free specimens in distilled water.The resultant solution was filtered and dialyzed by using Sigma dialysis membrane 500 against D-glucose.The supernatant was used as crude aqueous extract.

Solvent Extraction
The sponge sample was collected from Gulf of Mannar, India and identified by the scientist of Zoological Survey of India (ZSI), Chennai, Tamilnadu, India.They were stored at -20°C and transporte below 0°C and identified as Spirastrella inconstans.10 gm of Spirastrella inconstans tissue was soaked with 200 ml of solvents, covered and kept standing for 5 hrs.The solvent was then removed after squeezing the sponge and filtered through Whatman No 1 filter paper then evaporated at 45ºC according to the method of Gerald and Green Gerardo (1981).
Homogenized Spirastrella inconstans (20 gm) was taken with different solvents such as Chloroform, dichloromethane, methanol, ethanol, petroleum ether and acetone.They were soaked, packed tightly and kept in dark condition for three days, though the biomolecules present in Spirastrella inconstans get mixed with solvent.
The process was repeated using fresh solvent, until it is quite satisfy that the entire bioactive compound gets dissolved in solvent, has been extracted.The supernatant, which is yellowish when extracted for the first time, indicated the presence of solvent-soluble compounds while the supernatant, which is crystal clear when extracted for the third time, indicated that there are no more solvent-soluble compounds present in it (Zakaria et al., 2004).
The solvent was evaporated to form layer.One ml of solvent is poured over the precipitate and the extract was used for antimicrobial activity against MRSA strains isolated from fisherman community.

Characterization of Protein
The presence of protein was quantitatively estimated by Lowry's method (Lowry et al., 1951).Ammonium sulphate precipitation method was adopted for Spirastrella inconstant protein (Zhu et al., 2008).SDS-PAGE was carried out following the modified method of Laemmli, 1970.

Preparation of Sephadex G-50
About 2-3 gm of Sephadex G-50 was added to 500 ml distilled water, allowed for 3 hrs.Supernatant discarded and column material was treated with 200 ml of 0.1 N NaOH and left for 30 min.Supernatant discarded, washed with distilled water until the neutral reaction.Repeated washing with 200 ml of 0.1 N HCl.

Packing of Chromatographic Column
By using Column was packed by first making bed of column with glass wool evenly and then attaching the top of the burette with a rubber tube with pinch cork arrangement.Column fixed to stand in vertical position.Slurry was poured in column without air bubbles and to have even distribution of Sephadex slurry and allowed to settle.

Pretreatment, Loading and Elution of Column
Column washed with 10 mM Phosphate buffer with two gradients of saline (50 mM and 150 mM) pH-7.4,till the out flow of buffer shows the same pH.After packing the column the sample was layered on top of Sephadex column when entered the matrix, constant flow of buffer was maintained to collect fractions at 13 drops/min 3.0 ml, with the fractions up to 75 for each saturation level.Fractionation of proteins using column was done.Each fraction was analyzed for protein concentration, using A 280 at Lowry's method, and purified by SDS-PAGE.The high specific activity fractions are pooled and subjected to further purification (Mohankumar and Tamil selvi, 2012).

Purification of Proteins
2.6.1 Anion Exchange Chromatography (DEAE Sepharose Fast Flow) Fraction IV obtained was dialyzed against 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.46 for 5 hrs and injected into a pre equilibrated DEAE Sepharose fast flow column, with Tris HCl buffer.The column was washed until the baseline returned to 0. The column was then eluted with increasing concentration of NaCl prepared in 10 mM Tris HCl buffer, pH 7.46 at 4°C.Aliquots of 5 ml/tube were collected at flow rate of 1.2 ml/min and absorbance was measured at 280 nm.
2.6.2Gel Filtration Chromatography (Sephadex G-50) The protein solution that passed through the anion exchange chromatographic column was concentrated by freeze-drying and loaded on to a pre equilibrated Sephadex G-50 column with 10 mM Tris HCl buffer, pH 7.46.The flow rate was 0.65 ml/min, and the absorbance was monitored at 280 nm (Song et al., 2008).

Isolation of Lectin from Marine Organism
Internal organs of Spirastrella inconstans were homogenized with 0.1 M TBS at 1:5 (w/v) ratio (Elmer-Rico, 2005).Homogenate was stirred at 10°C for 6 hrs and filtered.The supernatant was centrifuged at 10 000 rpm for 10 min at 10°C.Extract precipitated at 90% saturation.The precipitate obtained by centrifugation at 10 000 rpm for 10 min at 10°C, dissolved in buffer and reprecipitated at 0-60% saturation with Ammonium sulfate, resulting precipitate was collected by centrifugation, dissolved in TBE and dialysis tubing with a molecular weight cut-off of 12 000 at 10°C.

Thin Layer Chromatography
Silica gel slurry with 0.2 M Sodium acetate buffer was activated at 100-105°C for 30 min, samples were spotted and dried.After an hour the solvent along with a cover plate ensures that the atmosphere within the tank was saturated.After equilibrium TLC plate was kept vertically with the spotted area dipped in solvent saturated.Solvent ascends the plate about 12 cm from the origin.The solvent evaporated up from the plate and the solvent front was marked.The plate was then sprayed with Ninhydrin and allowed to dry at 100°C for 10-20 min.R f value was calculated.

Chemical Screening-TLC
The crude extract dissolved in dichloromethane was placed on a TLC plate and eluted using mixtures of hexane and ethyl acetate in a saturated chromatographic cell.The plate was then sprayed with the following locating agents: (i) vanillin solution (1% vanillin in 50% phosphoric acid); (ii) ninhydrin solution (0.4% of ninhydrin in ethanol); and distilled water (40 mL) and solution B (8 gm potassium iodide dissolved in distilled water (20 mL) and saturated with tartaric acid.Alanine was used in the case of ninhydrin (Li et al., 2006).

TLC Autobiography Overlay Assay
A solvent without culture supernatant was extracted 3 times with 100 ml Ethyl acetate.Crude extract with Ethyl acetate was made up to concentration of 100 mg ml -1 . 2 μl solution was submitted to TLC on silica gel plate using Dichloromethane: Ethyl acetate: Methanol (5:5:1) as the mobile phase.UV/Vis absorption was used for detection at 254 nm and 365 nm.The TLC plates were sterilized by UV lamp for 30 min before enchased in the base nutrient agar.Covered by nutrient agar (46°C) containing Staphylococcus aureus.After 10 hrs diffusion at 8°C, incubated at 37°C for 24 hrs and agar was sprayed with 5 mg ml -1 of MMT (Methylthiazole tetrazolium).Inhibitions of zones were observed as clear spots against a purple background and their R f values were calculated (Li et al., 2005).

SDS-PAGE for Purified Protein
The Laemmli gel (Lamemli, 1970) with an acrylamide concentration of 5% for the stacking gel and 12% for the running gel, and SDS-PAGE with an acrylamide concentration of 4% for the stacking gel, 10% for the space gel and 15.5% for the running gel.Protein bands were detected by Coomassie blue staining method (Stephano et al., 1986).Gelatin Zymography was also carried out.

Enzymatic Analysis of Marine Bacteria and MRSA
The marine organism (bacteria from different source) was broadly used to check the bioactivity against MRSA, since it was isolated from fisherman wound.Spirastrella inconstans was collected during the period of our sample collection and also it had better activity, so it was used in the work.Compared to other marine organism or marine sponge Spirastrella inconstans was obtained in large number, which made to continue the work further.Amount of Lipase was estimated by plate assay method and titration method in which few strains of MRSA showed lipase production.They are negative for Amylase production and positive for DNase and Gelatinase and negative for Alginase production.Variation of Esculin production was observed.The nature of enzymatic activity varies among different strains in case of marine bacteria.The extracellular enzymes produced by plate precipitation test include lipase, amylase, DNase, esculinase, gelatinase and alginase using differential media.The extracellular enzymes were tested against MRSA isolated from fisherman wound, since biosignificance of marine organism may help coastal area people in commercial value.Enzyme, serratia peptidase from the rat fish isolate (Serratia sp.) seems to be more effective compared to other isolates.
All the enzymes were studied by assay procedure for detecting best enzyme by molecular level.Lipase showed better result compared to others next to protease.The highest value of lipase by MRSA isolate No. FM 3 using titration method was 55.99 units/ml/min.Zymographic study shows that lipase bears activity against MRSA.But compared to that of sponge protein, marine bacterial enzymes were not much more effective.Thus the bioactive compounds from the marine organisms were tested against MD-MRSA.
Among the marine organism screened sponge was selected for the study, which had positive action against pathogens.

Figure 2. Anti-MRSA activity of Spirastrella inconstans
The Sponge was identified as Spirastrella inconstans by the scientist of ZSI (Zoological survey of india) by its morphological characters.

Antimicrobial Activity of Spirastrella inconstans
Among the solvents of Spirastrella inconstans tested against MRSA chloroform seems to be much effective.The maximum inhibition using Chloroform was about 30 mm and minimum inhibition was 9 mm (Table 1).Less bioactivity was observed in case of Acetone.The Chloroform was followed by Dichloromethane, Methanol, Ethanol, Petroleum ether and Acetone (Figure 3).
Acetone had high stimulatory effect on the lipase activity.Tween 80 when used as the principal carbon sources produced maximum lipase.Yeast extract was the best nitrogen source for lipase production.Drop in enzyme activity was directly proportional to the concentration of oleic acid used.Optimal assay temperature for lipase activity was found between 25 and 35°C.Marine bacteria show drastic increase in its growth from pH 14.

Extraction of Protein from Spirastrella Inconstans
Crude protein obtained from Dialysis was further purified by Column Chromatography by collecting about 75 fractions in 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% saturation level.The fourth fraction of 40% and 60% bioactive compounds was indicated by dark color among all fractions obtained.The amounts of protein were estimated by UV-Vis Spectrophotometer.If the absorbance value at 280 nm by using UV-Vis Spectrophotometer is 1 or 0.9 absorbance means it's supposed to be protein.Lowry's method confirms the presence of protein.The fractions bearing the maximum protein content were taken in to account for further characterization, such as fraction no. 3 and 4(40% saturation), 4(60% saturation), and 5(80% saturation) with absorbance value of greater than one.

Preliminary Identification of Bioactive Compound from Spirastrella Inconstans
An autobiography result shows the presence of proteins.TLC showed the spots indicating the presence of amino acid content in that fraction.Based on the measurement of R f value calculated compound would be glutamic acid.

SDS-PAGE
Among 75 fractions collected in each percentage of saturation levels fourth fraction of 40% and 60% saturation level showed the protein content, which were analyzed by SDS-PAGE.The bands obtained were compared with the low molecular weight marker, thus indicating that the protein of Spirastrella inconstans extract with 3 000 Da from fraction number 4 and 79.Spirastrella inconstans protein posses better activity than the enzymes of marine bacteria against MRSA.

Discussion
The invertebrate resource minimum diversity was observed during the post monsoon in March and maximum was found during the summer season in April by Balaji et al. (2007).According to Arti Tyagi et al. (2008), Yeast extract produced maximum enzyme among all organic nitrogen sources studied yielding 5.21 U/ml.Among the inorganic sources, only ammonium nitrate gave the comparable enzyme yield.Alkaline lipases active at pH above 7.0 have been reported from Staphylococcus sp.Oleic acid supplementation in the production media resulted in repression of lipase synthesis and drop in enzyme activity was directly proportional to the concentration of oleic acid used.
Growth medium containing a high concentration of NaCl enabled the bacterium to grow at high temperature.
Interactions between the effects of temperature and NaCl concentration on growth of halophilic bacterium have been reported by Werasit Kanlayakrit et al. (2001).
Natural marine waters contain hundreds of bacteria per milliliter, and marine sediments thousands per ml, as shown for Santa Monica Basin and Dana Point samples.But surface waters contain 300 bacteria/ml (30 000/100 ml); mid water sample may contain less (10-100/ml), except near the sewage outfalls.There appear to be no striking differences in bacteria concentrations in sediments from Dana Point, Santa Monica Basin, or near the discharge sites in Santa Monica Bay, but the concentration range is one to two orders of magnitude higher than in water samples of equivalent volume.(ftp://ftp.sccwrp.org/pub/download/PDFs-delete/1975ANNUALREPORT/01_.pdf).
In 1947, Rosenfeld and Zobell had carried out the first detailed study of antibiotic-producing marine bacteria.Since then, there are several reports of antibiotic-producing marine bacteria showing the antagonistic effect against human pathogens, as strains of pathogenic bacteria that recently emerged are unresponsive or multidrug resistant to the already discovered antibiotic that are in use (Asha Devi et al., 2008). Prabhdeep Sidhu et al., (1998) made observation that lipase from most of Pseudomonas sp.Bacillus subtilis 168 and Staphylococcus warneri had been known to be activated by addition of Ca 2+ .Optimal assay temperature for the lipase activity was found to be between 25 and 35°C in case of Staphylococcus warneri.
A total of 82 stains were isolated from water and sediment samples of eight stations.Based on colony morphology, 42 strains were selected, sub-cultured and identified as 12 genera which includes Flavobacterium, Bacillus, Shigella, Klebsiella, Corynebacterium, Pseudomonas, Aeromonas, Vibrio, Streptococcus, Escherichia, Proteus and Salmonella of these Vibrio contributed more (23%) followed by Pseudomonas (20%) E. coli (17%) and Streptococcus (15%).In the case of pathogenic bacteria of Vibrio and Salmonella species higher pathogenic but less populated bacterial load were recorded from Nicobar island as suggested by Swarnakumar et al. (2008).
Mucus from the coral was good medium for the growth of marine bacteria so the level of the bacterial productivity in the coral mucus is greater than in the surrounding water.It has been hypothesized that marine bacteria associated with invertebrates and vertebrates secrete a number of antibacterial agents that may provide a level of immunity to the corals (Murugan et al., 2007).
Nural Cevahir et al. (2008) noted that gelatinase is protease that is capable of hydrolyzing gelatin, collagen, casein, hemoglobin, and other bioactive peptides.Proteinases are associated with inflammation, and this has been shown to contribute to virulence in human and animal models.Gelatinase producing strains have shown to contribute to the virulence of endocarditis in an animal model.It may be advantageous for the enterococci to hydrolyze collagen in subcutaneous tissues during wound infection.According to Nagvenkar (2006) a comparative analysis of microbial communities in different organs (surface, gills, intestinal tract) showed that high diversity noticed in the intestinal tract followed by surface and gill and also revealed the prevalent of gram negative strain in the intestinal tract of mullets.The results of enzyme production indicate that the isolated colonies play an important role in influencing the proteolytic and amylolytic activity.
The effect of organic solvents on enzymes activity, benzene and hexane had stimulatory effect on the lipase activity.The activity of enzymes was stimulated up to 60% of hexane or benzene in reaction mixture.The enzyme activity was slightly stimulated up to 30% in presence of acetone.Dimethyl sulphoxide and ethylene glycol had almost no effect, while ethanol, methanol and propanol inhibited the enzyme activity.The effect of organic solvents might be attributed to the water content in reaction mix.Water plays a significant role in the activity of the enzymes.The inhibition of lipase in presence of ethanol, methanol while stimulation in water immiscible solvents confirms that polar water miscible solvents are more destabilizing than the water immiscible solvents (Nawani et al., 2006).
By bioautography, the extract of the sponge collected in TAMA showed a significant inhibition zone in the less polar area of the TLC plate.Although TLC and bioautography analyses of the crude extracts revealed a difference in the composition of less polar compounds those that inhibit the growth of the marine bacterium in Epifanio et al. (2005) report. Li Kam Wah et al. (2006) made observation in his study by using different crude extracts which were chemically screened using TLC.Three different locating reagents, namely vanillin, ninhydrin, and Dragendorff were used to evaluate the abundance of secondary metabolites in the crude extracts.Vanillin was used to detect the presence of organic compounds such as terpenes, alkaloids, peptides, and sterols; ninhydrin to detect the presence of amino acids and peptides and Dragendorff to detect the presence of alkaloids.But in the case of present study amino acid shows positive result.Boobathy et al. (2009) obtained the crude protein content of 1.62 mg/mL in methanolic crude extract and 1.43 mg/mL in the aqueous extract of marine sponge Callyspongia diffusa.The SDS-PAGE on gel, crude protein toxins yielded 6 bands in the chloroform extract and 5 bands in the aqueous extract of S. fibulatus, ranging from 14.4 to 116 kDa molecular weight with 5 well-defined bands of 28.5, 35.4, 45.0, 59.5, 72.3 kDa in both the extracts.The presence of 3 protein bands viz, 19.5, 39.0 and 66.2 kDa already reported in C. diffusa.

Conclusion
The world's oceans will play an important part in the future control of the global infectious disease burden.The purified enzyme from the sponge, Spirastrella inconstans had better antimicrobial activity against (MDR-MRSA) multidrug resistant-Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus from fisherman Wound.Thus the enzyme protein from S. inconstans can be used for producing bioactive compound compared to that of other marine organism obtained from different marine source.Future work of structural elucidation of protein molecules may solve the problem of wound infection in better way.
