Two New Triterpenes from Basidiomata of the Medicinal and Edible Mushroom, Laetiporus sulphureus.

ABSTRACT: In the search for novel anti-infectives from natural sources, fungi, in particular basidiomycetes, have proven to still harbor so much potential in terms of secondary metabolites diversity. There have been numerous reports on isolating numerous secondary metabolites from genus Laetiporus. This study reports on two new triterpenoids, laetiporins C and D, and four known triterpenes from the fruiting body of L. sulphureus. The structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated based on their 1D and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic data in combination with high-resolution electrospray mass spectrometric (HR-ESIMS) data. Laetiporin C exhibited weak antifungal activity against Mucor hiemalis. Furthermore, the compounds showed weak antiproliferative activity against the mouse fibroblast L929 and human cancer cell lines, including KB-3-1, A431, MCF-7, PC-3 and A549.

Project description:Background: Wood-decay basidiomycetes are effective for the degradation of highly lignified and recalcitrant substrates. Brown-rot strain produces carbohydrate-active enzymes involved in the degradation of lignocellulosic materials, along with a non-enzymatic mechanism, via Fenton reaction. Differences in the lignocellulose metabolism occurring even among closely related brown-rots are not completely understood, bringing attention to a multi-omics study of brown-rot L. sulphureus. Results: To evidence the oxidative-hydrolytic mechanism, the Laetiporus sulphureus ATCC 52600 genome was sequenced and the response to lignocellulosic substrates was analyzed by transcriptomics and proteomics. The transcriptomic profile in response to a short cultivation period on in natura sugarcane bagasse revealed 128 out of 12,802 upregulated transcripts. The high upregulated transcripts included a set of redox enzymes along with hemicellulases. The exoproteome in response to extended-time cultivation with Avicel, and steam-exploded sugarcane bagasse, sugarcane straw, and Eucalyptus grandis revealed 121 proteins. Contrasting to the mainly oxidative profile observed in the transcriptome, the secretomes showed a diverse hydrolytic repertoire including constitutive cellulases and hemicellulases, in addition to 19 proteins upregulated relative to glucose. The secretome produced on sugarcane bagasse was evaluated in the saccharification of pretreated sugarcane straw by supplementing a commercial cocktail. Additionally, growth analysis revealed that L. sulphureus ATCC 52600 has higher efficiency to assimilate glucose than other mono and disaccharides. Conclusion: This study shows the singularity of L. sulphureus ATCC 52600 relative to other Polyporales brown-rots, regarding the presence of cellobiohydrolase and peroxidase class II. The multi-omic analysis reinforces the oxidative-hydrolytic metabolism involved in lignocellulose deconstruction, providing insights into the overall mechanisms as well as specific proteins of each step.
