摘要 | Many animals have pigments when they themselves cannot see colour. Perhaps those pigments enable the animal to avoid predators, or to attract mates. Maybe even those pigmented surfaces are hosts for microbes, even when the microbes do not see colour. Do some pigments then serve as a chemical signal for a good or bad microbial substrate? Maybe pigments attract or repel various microbe types? Echinoderms serve as an important model to test the mechanisms of pigment-based microbial interactions. Echinoderms are marine benthic organisms, ranging from intertidal habitats to depths of thousands of metres and are exposed to large varieties of microbes. They are also highly pigmented, with a diverse variety of colours between and even within species. Here we focus on one type of pigment (naphthoquinones) made by polyketide synthase, modified by flavin-dependent monoxygenases, and on one type of function, microbial interaction. Recent successes in targeted gene inactivation by CRISPR/Cas9 in sea urchins supports the contention that colour is more than it seems. Here we dissect the players, and their interactions to better understand how such host factors influence a microbial colonization.This article is part of the theme issue 'Sculpting the microbiome: how host factors determine and respond to microbial colonization'. |
