Bioactive Potential of Extracts of Labrenzia aggregata Strain USBA 371, a Halophilic Bacterium Isolated from a Terrestrial Source.

ABSTRACT: Previous studies revealed the potential of Labrenzia aggregata USBA 371 to produce cytotoxic metabolites. This study explores its metabolic diversity and compounds involved in its cytotoxic activity. Extracts from the extracellular fraction of strain USBA 371 showed high levels of cytotoxic activity associated with the production of diketopiperazines (DKPs). We purified two compounds and a mixture of two other compounds from this fraction. Their structures were characterized by 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The purified compounds were evaluated for additional cytotoxic activities. Compound 1 (cyclo (l-Pro-l-Tyr)) showed cytotoxicity to the following cancer cell lines: breast cancer 4T1 (IC50 57.09 ± 2.11 µM), 4T1H17 (IC50 40.38 ± 1.94), MCF-7 (IC50 87.74 ± 2.32 µM), murine melanoma B16 (IC50 80.87 ± 3.67), human uterus sarcoma MES-SA/Dx5 P-pg (-) (IC50 291.32 ± 5.64) and MES-SA/Dx5 P-pg (+) (IC50 225.28 ± 1.23), and murine colon MCA 38 (IC50 29.85 ± 1.55). In order to elucidate the biosynthetic route of the production of DKPs and other secondary metabolites, we sequenced the genome of L. aggregata USBA 371. We found no evidence for biosynthetic pathways associated with cyclodipeptide synthases (CDPSs) or non-ribosomal peptides (NRPS), but based on proteogenomic analysis we suggest that they are produced by proteolytic enzymes. This is the first report in which the cytotoxic effect of cyclo (l-Pro-l-Tyr) produced by an organism of the genus Labrenzia has been evaluated against several cancer cell lines.

Project description:Labrenzia aggregata LZB033 (Rhodobacteraceae), which produces dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) and reduces nitrate to nitrogen, was isolated from seawater of the East China Sea. Its genome encodes a large number of transcriptional regulators which may be important for its adaptation to diverse marine environments. The alternative σ54 factor (RpoN) is a central regulator of many bacteria, regulating the transcription of multiple genes and controlling important cellular functions. However, the exact role of RpoN in Labrenzia spp. is unknown. In this study, an in-frame rpoN deletion mutant was constructed in LZB033, and the function of RpoN was determined. To systematically identify RpoN-controlled genes, we performed a detailed analysis of gene expression differences between the wild-type strain and the ΔrpoN mutant using RNA sequencing. The expression of 175 genes was shown to be controlled by RpoN. Subsequent phenotypic assays showed that the ΔrpoN mutant was attenuated in flagellar biosynthesis and swimming motility, utilized up to 13 carbon substrates differently, lacked the ability to assimilate malic acid, and displayed markedly decreased bioﬁlm formation. In addition, stress response assays showed that the ΔrpoN mutant was impaired in the ability to survive under different challenge conditions, including osmotic stress, oxidative stress, temperature changes, and acid stress. Moreover, both the DMSP synthesis and catabolism rates of LZB033 decreased after rpoN was knocked out. Our work provides essential insight into the regulatory function of RpoN, revealing that RpoN is a key determinant for LZB033 flagellar formation, motility, biofilm formation, and environmental fitness, as well as DMSP production and degradation.IMPORTANCE This study established an in-frame gene deletion method in the alphaproteobacterium Labrenzia aggregata LZB033 and generated an rpoN gene mutant. A comparison of the transcriptomes and phenotypic characteristics between the mutant and wild-type strains confirmed the role of RpoN in L. aggregata LZB033 flagellar formation, motility, biofilm formation, and carbon usage. Most importantly, RpoN is a key factor for survival under different environmental challenge conditions. Furthermore, the ability to synthesize and metabolize dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) was related to RpoN. These features revealed RpoN to be an important regulator of stress resistance and survival for L. aggregata LZB033 in marine environments.
