Project description:A Streptomyces strain, MUM256 was isolated from Tanjung Lumpur mangrove soil in Malaysia. Characterization of the strain showed that it has properties consistent with those of the members of the genus Streptomyces. In order to explore the potential bioactivities, extract of the fermented broth culture of MUM256 was prepared with organic solvent extraction method. DPPH and SOD activity were utilized to examine the antioxidant capacity and the results have revealed the potency of MUM256 in superoxide anion scavenging activity in dose-dependent manner. The cytotoxicity of MUM256 extract was determined using cell viability assay against 8 different panels of human cancer cell lines. Among all the tested cancer cells, HCT116 was the most sensitive toward the extract treatment. At the highest concentration of tested extract, the result showed 2.3-, 2.0-, and 1.8-folds higher inhibitory effect against HCT116, HT29, and Caco-2 respectively when compared to normal cell line. This result has demonstrated that MUM256 extract was selectively cytotoxic toward colon cancer cell lines. In order to determine the constituents responsible for its bioactivities, the extract was then subjected to chemical analysis using GC-MS. The analysis resulted in the identification of chemical constituents including phenolic and pyrrolopyrazine compounds which may responsible for antioxidant and anticancer activities observed. Based on the findings of this study, the presence of bioactive constituents in MUM256 extract could be a potential source for the development of antioxidative and chemopreventive agents.

Project description:The increasing concern over multidrug resistance in pathogens has led to an ongoing search for novel antibiotics derived from soil actinobacteria. In this current investigation, actinobacteria were isolated from the rhizosphere of bamboo plants collected within the Megamalai forest of the Western Ghats in the Theni zone of Tamil Nadu, India. These actinobacteria were subjected to characterization, and their growth conditions were optimized to enhance the production of bioactive compounds. To assess antibacterial properties, the isolated Actinobacteria underwent testing using the agar plug method. The strain exhibiting notable antibacterial activity underwent further characterization through 16s rRNA gene sequencing and subsequent phylogenetic analysis. Employing response surface methodology (RSM), cultural conditions were fine-tuned. Bioactive compounds were extracted from the culture medium using ethyl acetate, and their antibacterial and antioxidant effects were evaluated through disc diffusion and DPPH radical scavenging methods, respectively. Ethyl acetate extracts were analyzed by using FT-IR and GC-MS techniques. In total, nine strains of Actinobacteria were isolated from the rhizosphere soil of bamboo. Among these, strain BS-16 displayed remarkable antibacterial activity against three strains: Staphylococcus aureus (19 mm), Bacillus subtilis (12 mm), and Streptococcus pyogenes (10 mm). This strain was identified as Streptomyces sp. The optimal conditions for bioactive compound production were determined as follows: malt extract (10 g), yeast extract (5 g), dextrose (5 g), pH 6.5, and temperature 30 °C. After a 7-day incubation period, the results showed a 6% increase in production. The ethyl acetate fraction derived from strain BS-16 exhibited dose-dependent antibacterial and antioxidant activities. FT-IR and GC-MS analyses revealed the presence of active compounds with antibacterial effects within the extract. Consequently, further investigation into the BS-16 strain holds promise for scaling up the production of bioactive compounds possessing antibacterial and antioxidant properties.

Project description:An actinomycete strain was isolated from northern part of Bangladesh and identified as a new Streptomyces species on the basis of its morphological, biochemical, cultural characteristics and 16S rRNA data. Attempts were made to optimize the culture conditions for the production of antimicrobial metabolites by this strain. Antimicrobial metabolites production was started after 7 days of incubation of culture broth and reached its maximum levels after 10 days and thereafter gradually decreased. The maximum production of antimicrobial metabolites was obtained when the culture medium pH was adjusted to 8. The optimum temperature for antimicrobial metabolites production was 39?, indicated the new strain as mesophilic organism. Basel medium supplemented with glucose and yeast extract as carbon and nitrogen sources, respectively, was proved to be the best for the production of bioactive metabolites. Maximum production of bioactive metabolites was when NaCl concentration was 1% and among different minerals tested, K2HPO4 and NaCl showed positive influence on antibiotic production by the strain.

Project description:A bacterial strain, named For3T, was isolated from forest soil sampled in Champenoux, France. Based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence, the strain was affiliated to the family Streptomycetaceae and, more specifically, to the genus Streptomyces. The strain had 99.93% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to its closest relative strains Streptomyces pratensis ATCC 33331T, Streptomyces anulatus ATCC 27416T, Streptomyces setonii NRRL ISP-5322T and Kitasatospora papulosa NRRL B-16504T. The phylogenomic tree using the genome blast distance phylogeny method showed that the closest relative strain was Streptomyces atroolivaceus NRRL ISP-5137T and that For3T represents a new branch among the Streptomyces. Genome relatedness indexes revealed that the average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between For3T and its closest phylogenomic relative (S. atroolivaceus NRRL ISP-5137T) were 88.39 and 39.2 %, respectively. The G+C content of the genome was 71.4 mol% and its size was 7.96 Mb with 7492 protein-coding genes. Strain For3T harboured complete metabolic pathways absent in the closest relative strains such as cellulose biosynthesis, glycogen degradation I, glucosylglycerate biosynthesis I. Anteiso-C15:0, iso-C15:0, anteiso-C17:0 and MK-9(H4)/MK-9(H6) were the predominant cellular fatty acids and respiratory quinones, respectively. Phenotypic and genomic data supported the assignment of strain For3T to a novel species Streptomyces silvae sp. nov., within the genus Streptomyces, for which the type strain is For3T (=CIP 111908T=LMG 32186T).

Project description:A novel strain, Streptomyces antioxidans MUSC 164(T) was recovered from mangrove forest soil located at Tanjung Lumpur, Malaysia. The Gram-positive bacterium forms yellowish-white aerial and brilliant greenish yellow substrate mycelium on ISP 2 agar. A polyphasic approach was used to determine the taxonomy status of strain MUSC 164(T). The strain showed a spectrum of phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic properties consistent with those of the members of the genus Streptomyces. The cell wall peptidoglycan was determined to contain LL-diaminopimelic acid. The predominant menaquinones were identified as MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8), while the identified polar lipids consisted of aminolipid, diphosphatidylglycerol, glycolipid, hydroxyphosphatidylethanolamine, phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and lipid. The cell wall sugars consist of galactose, glucose and ribose. The predominant cellular fatty acids (>10.0%) were identified as iso-C15: 0 (34.8%) and anteiso-C15: 0(14.0%). Phylogenetic analysis identified that closely related strains for MUSC 164(T) as Streptomyces javensis NBRC 100777(T) (99.6% sequence similarity), Streptomyces yogyakartensis NBRC 100779(T) (99.6%) and Streptomyces violaceusniger NBRC 13459(T) (99.6%). The DNA-DNA relatedness values between MUSC 164(T) and closely related type strains ranged from 23.8 ± 0.3% to 53.1 ± 4.3%. BOX-PCR fingerprints comparison showed that MUSC 164(T) exhibits a unique DNA profile, with DNA G + C content determined to be 71.6 mol%. Based on the polyphasic study of MUSC 164(T), it is concluded that this strain represents a novel species, for which the name Streptomyces antioxidans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MUSC 164(T) (=DSM 101523(T) = MCCC 1K01590(T)). The extract of MUSC 164(T) showed potent antioxidative and neuroprotective activities against hydrogen peroxide. The chemical analysis of the extract revealed that the strain produces pyrazines and phenolic-related compounds that could explain for the observed bioactivities.

Project description:An antimicrobial producing Gram-positive, aerobic, nonmotile, and filamentous actinobacterial strain SKN60T was isolated from soil The isolate exhibited 99.3% and 99.0% identity with Streptomyces laurentii ATCC 31255T and S. roseicoloratus TRM 44457T, respectively, in 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. However, the genome sequence displayed maximum ANI (88.45%) and AAI (85.61%) with S. roseicoloratus TRM 44457T. Similarly, the dDDH showed 33.7% identity with S. roseicoloratus TRM 44457T. It formed a cluster with S. roseicoloratus TRM 44457T and S. laurentii ATCC 31255T in phylogenomic tree. Cell wall analysis revealed the presence of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylcholine as major polar lipids and diaminopimelic acid as diagnostic diamino acid. Major fatty acids were iso-C15:0, anteiso-C15:0, and iso-C16:0. The G+C content was found to be 72.3 mol%. Genome sequence analysis using antiSMASH database showed occurrence of a thiopeptide biosynthesis gene cluster with 94% similarity to berninamycin from S. bernensis UC5144. The mass of 1146 Da is identical with berninamycin. But subtle differences observed in leader peptide sequence of thiopeptide and berninamycin. Notably, S. bernensis is not validly reported and thus SKN60T is the only strain containing berninamycin BGC as no other phylogenetic relative had it. Additionally, strain SKN60T differed in phenotypic and genetic characteristics with all phylogenetic relatives of the genus Streptomyces. Therefore, it is proposed as a novel species with the name Streptomyces terrae sp. nov. strain SKN60T (=MTCC 13163T; = JCM 35768T).

Project description:Actinomycetes are gram positive bacteria with high G + C content in their DNA and are capable of producing variety of secondary metabolites. Many of these metabolites possess different biological activities and have the potential to be developed as therapeutic agents. The aim of the present study was to screen actinomycetes inhabiting halophilic environment such as Khewra salt mines present in Pakistan for cytotoxic and antitumor compounds.An actiomycetes strain designated as Streptomyces sp. KML-2 was isolated from a saline soil of Khewra salt mines, Pakistan. The strain Streptomyces sp. KML-2 showed 84 % cytotoxic activity against larvae of Artemia salina. In the screening phase, the strain exhibited significant antitumor activity with IC50 values of 12, 48 and 56 µg/ml against Hela, MDBK and Vero cell lines, respectively. After that extract from 20 l fermentation was used to purify secondary metabolites by several chromatographic techniques. Structure elucidation of isolated compounds revealed that it is highly stable producer of Chromomycin SA (1) and 1-(1H-indol-3-yl)-propane-1,2,3-triol (2). Both of the isolated compounds showed significant antitumor activity against Hela and MCF-7 cancer cell lines (IC50 values 8.9 and 7.8 µg/ml against Hela; 12.6 and 0.97 µg/ml against MCF-7, respectively). The 16S rRNA gene sequence (1437 bp) of the strain confirm its identity (99 %) with Streptomyces griseus.From this research work we were successful in isolating two potent antitumor compounds, Chromomycin SA and 1-(1H-indol-3-yl)-propane-1,2,3-triol from Streptomyces KML-2 strain, isolated from Khewra salt mine. As such this is the second report which confirms that S. griseus can produce Chromomycin SA without introducing any mutagenesis in its biosynthesizing gene cluster and isolated indole derivative is being reported first time from any member of actinomycetes group with having novel antitumor activity against Hela and MCF-7 cells. Nucleotide sequences: Nucleotide sequence data reported are available in the GenBank database under the accession number: GenBank KJ009562.

Project description:A new bacterial strain, designated 452T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of the mangrove Avicennia marina in China. As determined, its cell wall peptidoglycan contained LL-diaminopimelic acid; MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6) were the major isoprenoid quinones; and iso-C16:0 (31.3%), anteiso-C15:0 (16.9%), and iso-C15:0 (12.5%) were the major cellular fatty acids (>10.0%). Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain 452T formed a distinct lineage in the clade of the genus Streptomyces, and was closely related to S. coerulescens DSM 40146T (99.6% sequence identity), S. bellus DSM 40185T (99.5%), and S. coeruleorubidus DSM 41172T (99.3%). The DNA-DNA relatedness between strain 452T and these type strains ranged between 29.3 and 42.3%. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and phylogenetic features, the strain 452T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces nigra sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 452T (=KCTC 39960T = MCCC 1K03346T). Further, strain 452T extracts exhibited a pronounced antitumor activity against human cancer cell lines A549, HCT-116, and HepG2, but not against normal human colon cells CCD-18Co. Active substances in the fermentation broth of strain 452T were isolated by bioassay-guided analysis, and then purified using a macroporous resin, silica gel, sephadex LX-20 column, and semi-preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Eight proline-containing diketopiperazines, namely, cyclo(Pro-Ala), cyclo(Pro-Gly), cyclo(Pro-Phe), cyclo(Pro-Met), cyclo(Pro-Val), cyclo(Pro-Leu), cyclo(Pro-Tyr), and cyclo(L-Leu-trans-4-hydroxy-L-Pro), were identified by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The compounds displayed different levels of cytotoxicity. The highest cytotoxicity was exhibited by cyclo(Pro-Ala) and cyclo(Pro-Met) against A549 cells, and cyclo(Phe-Pro) and cyclo(Pro-Ala) against HCT-116 cells, with average IC50 values equal to 18.5, 27.3, 32.3, and 47.6 μg/mL, respectively. The diversity of diketopiperazines and other chemicals produced by 452T was further investigated using gas chromatography (GC)-MS and liquid chromatography (LC)-MS. The analysis revealed 16 types of metabolites with antitumor activity and 16 other types of diketopiperazines. Hence, extracts of the newly identified strain may be used a starting material for the development of antitumor agents.

Project description:The Actinomycetia isolate PBR11 was isolated from the forest rhizosphere soil of Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary (PWS), Assam, India. The isolate was identified as Streptomyces sp. with 92.91% sequence similarity to their closest type strain, Streptomyces atrovirens NRRL B-16357 DQ026672. The strain demonstrated significant antimicrobial activity against 19 test pathogens, including multidrug-resistant (MDR) clinical isolates and dermatophytes. Phenol, 2,5-bis(1,1-dimethylethyl), is the major chemical compound detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in the ethyl acetate extract of PBR11 (EtAc-PBR11). The presence of the PKS type II gene (type II polyketide synthases) and chitinase gene suggested that it has been involved in the production of antimicrobial compounds. Metabolic profiling of the EtAc-PBR11 was performed by thin-layer chromatography and flash chromatography resulted in the extraction of two bioactive fractions, namely, PBR11Fr-1 and PBR11Fr-2. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis of both the fractions demonstrated the presence of significant antimicrobial compounds, including ethambutol. This is the first report on the detection of antituberculosis drug in the bioactive fractions of Streptomyces sp. PBR11. EtAc-PBR11 and PBR11Fr-1 showed the lowest MIC values (>0.097 and >0.048 μg/mL, respectively) against Candida albicans MTCC 227, whereas they showed the highest MIC values (>0.390 and >0.195 μg/mL, respectively) against Escherichia coli ATCC BAA-2469. The effects of PBR11Fr-1 were investigated on the pathogens by using a scanning electron microscope. The results indicated major morphological alterations in the cytoplasmic membrane. PBR11Fr-1 exhibited low cytotoxicity on normal hepatocyte cell line (CC-1) and the percent cell viability started to decline as the concentration increased from 50 μg/mL (87.07% ± 3.22%) to 100 μg/mL (81.26% ± 2.99%). IMPORTANCE Novel antibiotic breakthroughs are urgently required to combat antimicrobial resistance. Actinomycetia are the principal producers of antibiotics. The present study demonstrated the broad-spectrum antimicrobial potential of an Actinomycetia strain Streptomyces sp. strain PBR11 isolated from the PWS of Assam, India, which represents diverse, poorly screened habitats for novel microorganisms. The strain displayed 92.4% sequence similarity with genes of the closest type strain, indicating that the strain may represent a novel taxon within the phylum Actinomycetota. The metabolomics studies of EtAc-PBR11 revealed structurally diverse antimicrobial agents, including the detection of the antituberculosis drug ethambutol, in the bioactive fraction of Streptomyces sp. PBR11 for the first time. The PBR11 strain also yielded positive results for the antibiotic synthesis gene and the chitinase gene, both of which are responsible for broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity. This suggests that the untouched forest ecosystems have a tremendous potential to harbor potent actinomycetia for future drug discovery.
