Title

The amino acid composition of 39 coral skeleton samples from massive Porites spp. corals of different genotype cultured under varying seawater pCO2 and temperature.

Abstract

Amino acid compositions of coral skeletons from 4 massive Porites spp. genotypes (G4, G5, G6, G7) cultured in an aquarium at seawater pCO2 of 180, 260, 400 and 750 µatm and at seawater temperature of 25 and 28°C. Protein was extracted from the skeletal samples and hydrolysed to individual amino acids. Data were collected to determine how environmental conditions influence coral skeletal biomolecules. Data were collected between August 2020 and December 2022 by Celeste Kellock, Cristina Castillo Alvarez, David Evans and Nicola Allison and interpreted by Celeste Kellock, Cristina Castillo Alvarez, David Evans, Nicola Allison, Adrian Finch, Kirsty Penkman, Roland Kröger, and Matthieu Clog.

Quality and validity

Lineage

Massive Porites corals were sourced from Fiji, divided into multiple sub colonies and cultured in an aquarium at different seawater pCO2 and temperature. The skeleton deposited during the culture period was identified by alizarin red staining and removed by microdrill. The skeletal intracrystalline protein was extracted by demineralising the skeleton, was hydrolysed and analysed by reverse phase HPLC.
