It also possesses a variety of genes for allowing strain 2-6A to cope with osmotic stress, oxidative stress, heat shock, cold shock and heavy metal stress, which could play a vital role in the adaptability of the strain to hydrothermal environments.

A total of 2056 unigenes were recognized to be differentially expressed in transcriptome sequences.

Furthermore, glutamate dehydrogenase was significantly up-regulated in abundance. Meanwhile, calcium-dependent protein kinases were also detected with significant changes.

Several studies have revealed that bacteria isolated from <em>Chromodoris quadricolor</em> (<em>C. quadricolor)</em> have antibiotic and anticancer properties. In this study, meta-transcriptomics and meta-proteimic analysis were combined to identify biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in the symbiotic bacteria of the <em>C. quadricolor</em> mantle. Symbiotic bacteria were separated from the host by differential pelleting, and then total RNA was extracted, purified, and sequenced. Meta-transcriptomic analysis was done using different natural product mining tools to identify biosynthetic transcript clusters (BTCs). Furthermore, proteins were extracted from the same cells and then analyzed by LC-MS. A meta-proteomic analysis was performed to find proteins that are translated from BCGs. Finally, only 227 proteins have been translated from 40,742 BTCs. The majority of these clusters were polyketide synthases (PKSs) with antibacterial activity. Ten novel potential metabolic clusters with the ability to produce antibiotics have been identified in Novosphingobium and Microbacteriaceae, including members of the ribosomal synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs), polyketide synthases, and others.
