“…This result was in accordance with proteomic data, because the most abundant genomic tRNAs (Asp, Gly, Arg, etc.) matched the most abundant amino acids in the body mass of the sea cucumber [14][15][16]. Nevertheless, in comparison with the synonymous codon level, the correlation at the amino acid level was much lower.…”

Genomic tRNA copy numbers determine cytoplasmic tRNA abundances, which in turn influence translation efficiency, but the underlying mechanism is not well understood. Using the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus as a model, we combined genomic sequence, transcriptome expression and ecological food resource data to study its codon usage adaptation. The results showed that, unlike intragenic non-coding RNAs, transfer RNAs (tRNAs) tended to be transcribed independently. This may be attributed to their specific Pol III promoters that lack transcriptional regulation, which may underlie the correlation between genomic copy number and cytoplasmic abundance of tRNAs. Moreover, codon usage optimization was mostly restrained by a gene's amino acid sequence, which might be a compromise between functionality and translation efficiency. Genes for stress responses were highly optimized for most echinoderms, while enzymes for saponin biosynthesis (LAS, CYPs and UGTs) were especially optimized in sea cucumbers, which might promote saponin synthesis as a defence strategy. The genomic tRNA content of A. japonicus was positively correlated with amino acid content in its natural food particles, which should promote its efficiency in protein synthesis. We propose that coevolution between genomic tRNA content and codon usage of sea cucumbers facilitates their saponin synthesis and survival using food resources with low nutrient content.

“…According to research results, the moisture content in A. molpadiodes is the highest (90.85±0.40%) (Table 1) compared to P. australis (74.93±0.25%), H. polii (81.24%), H. mammata (85.24%), and H. tubulosa (84.30%) [7,9]. The average value of protein was 4.72 ± 0.27% (Table 1) and lower than P. australis, H. polii, H. tubulosa, and H. mammata, i.e., 20.22, 8.66, 8.82, 7.88% respectively [7,9]. Based on the analysis, the carbohydrate content in A. molpadiodes is 4.24 ±0.12 % (Table 1).…”

Sea cucumber Acaudina molpadiodes has a nutritional value that can be utilized as a functional food for humans. Therefore, this study aims to examine the composition of proximate, fatty acid, and amino acids in A. molpadiodes. The samples were collected from Delta Wulan Estuary, Demak Regency, Central Java, Indonesia. Based on the result of this study, the average value of moisture, protein, carbohydrate, total lipid, and ash contents in A. molpadiodes ranged between 90.44 – 91.23%, 4.44 – 4.97%, 4.12-4.35%, 0.16-0.18%, and 0.05-0.06% respectively. According to the result of amino acid analysis, the profile of essential amino acids comprised phenylalanine, isoleucine, valine, lysine, leucine, threonine, histidine, cysteine, methionine, and tryptophan. The average value of leucine content was 2273.95 ± 291.61 mg.kg-1, and the threonine content was 2732 ± 276.93 mg.kg-1. The non-essential amino acid profile consisted of glutamic acid, alanine, glycine, aspartic acid, tyrosine, proline, and taurine. The glycine and glutamic acid content in A. molpadiodes are 6843.67 ±393.71 mg.kg-1 and 5975.06 ± 687.85 mg.kg-1. Fatty acid profiles in A. molpadiodes are DHA (docosahexaenoic), EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid), and AA (Arachidonic acid with an average value of 2.03 ±0.17 mg.100g-1, 2.42 ± 0.83 mg.100g-1, and 6.20±1.56 mg.100g-1.

“…Sea cucumbers are cylindrical invertebrates that live in various seabed habitats, from warm tropical waters to deep cold seas. These marine benthic organisms can be found in seagrass, coral reef, mangrove, and mudflat ecosystems [1,2]. Holothuria scabra, also known as sand sea cucumber (sandfish), belongs to the Holothuriidae family, generally having the same anatomy as other sea cucumbers [3].…”

Antioxidant and anticancer activities of sand sea cucumber Holothuria scabra (dried and fresh) extracts were studied. The highest extraction yield of sea cucumber H. scabra (3.9%) was obtained using dried H. scabra at 60oC. The highest antioxidant activity was found in fresh H. scabra extract at 60°C with an IC50 value of 629.89 ± 0.15 µg/mL using the ABTS method, and the highest antioxidant activity by DPPH method was found in dried H. scabra extract at 70°C with an IC50 value of 32017.18 ± 0.82 µg/mL. The best antioxidant activity based on FRAP and TBARS methods was found in fresh H. scabra extracts at 80°C, respectively. The highest total phenol and flavonoid contained in dried H. scabra extract were 317.54 ± 8.91 mg GAE/100 g sample and 247.56 ± 11.70 mg QE/100 g sample. H. scabra extracts inhibited more than 50% of the growth of the MDA-MB-231 cell line at concentrations of 25 and 50 μg/mL except for dried H. scabra extracts at 80°C. Similarly, the extracts showed the highest cytotoxic effect up to 100% at the highest concentration (100 μg/mL) except for dried H. scabra extracts at 70°C and 80°C.
