Partial Purification and Characterization of Bacteriocin-Like Inhibitory Substances Produced by Streptomyces sp. Isolated from the Gut of Chanos chanos.

ABSTRACT: Bacteriocin-like inhibitory substances (BLIS) have sparked great interest because of their promising use in food as natural antimicrobial agents. In this work, six Streptomyces isolates obtained from the gut of Chanos chanos demonstrated their ability to produce extracellular metabolites with inhibitory activity against Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus. Exposure of the extracellular metabolites to proteolytic enzymes (i.e., proteinase-K, trypsin, and pepsin) revealed high sensitivity and confirmed their proteinaceous nature. The metabolites were stable at high temperatures (up to 100°C for 30 min) and a wide range of pH (pH 2.0-7.0). Fractionation of the crude BLIS by filtration yielded three fractions based on molecular weight: <3 kDa, 3-10 kDa, and >10 kDa. Analysis of the antibacterial activity of these fractions showed increased specific activity, especially in the fraction with a molecular weight (MW) of <3 kDa, relative to the crude sample. The fraction with MW < 3 kDa had minimum inhibitory and bactericidal concentrations in ranges 0.04-0.62 mg·mL^-1 and 0.08-1.25 mg·mL^-1, respectively. This fraction also showed better temperature and pH stability compared with crude BLIS. Brine shrimp toxicity assay revealed that this fraction has moderate toxicity with a 50% lethal concentration of 226.975 μg·mL^-1 (i.e., moderate toxicity) to Artemia salina. Identification of the peptide sequences of this fraction by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry yielded 130 proteins with retention times of 15.21-19.57 min. Eleven proteins with MWs of 1345.66-2908.35 Da and composed of less than 30 amino acid residues with high hydrophobicity (15.34-26.22 kcal·mol^-1) appeared to be responsible for the antibacterial activity of the fraction. This study revealed the potential application of BLIS from Streptomyces, especially BLIS SCA-8, as antibacterial agents.

Project description:Lactobacillus plantarum zrx03 was a bacteriocin-producing strain isolated from infant's feces. The fermentation supernatant produced by this strain could strongly inhibit Escherichia coli JM109 ATCC 67387, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, and Listeria monocytogenes CICC 21633, in which the diameter of inhibition zone was 12.83 ± 0.62 mm, 15.08 ± 0.31 mm, 6.75 ± 0.20 mm, respectively, compared with lactic acid bacteria N1, N2, M13, M21, M31, and M37. According to amplification of 16S rRNA gene and identification of phylogenetic tree, this strain had a 1,450 bp sequence and 100% identity to the L. plantarum strain. Based on the influence of different protease treatments, such as pepsin, trypsin, papain, and proteinase K on the antimicrobial activity, this antimicrobial substance was considered to be a natural protein. Using bacteriocin produced by this strain as study object of this experiment, it had been extracted from ammonium sulfate precipitation and different organic solvents. The results showed that ethyl acetate was selected as the optimal solution to crude extraction of bacteriocin after comparing ammonium sulfate precipitation method and organic solvent extraction method, such as n-butanol, n-hexane, dichloromethane, trichloromethane, in which the diameter of the inhibition zones was above 28 mm. Results also showed the inhibition spectrum of the obtained bacteriocin had a broad spectrum of inhibition which could inhibit Gram-positive, Gram-negative, yeast. Especially, it could effectively inhibit S. aureus ATCC 25923, Bacillus subtilis CICC 10002, Bacillus anthracis CICC 20443, E. coli JM109 ATCC 67387, and Salmonella CMCC 541, and the zone diameter of inhibition has reached more than 28 mm. Moreover, it had a good thermal stability which antibacterial activity was retained 70.58% after treatment at 121°C for 30 min, and pH-stability was between pH 2.0-9.0. These results suggested bacteriocin produced by L. plantarum zrx03 had potential application prospects in food preservation.
