Abstract
Marine-derived piperazine alkaloids (MDPAs) constitute a significant group of natural compounds known for their diverse structures and biological activities. Over the past five decades, substantial efforts have been devoted to isolating these alkaloids from marine sources and characterizing their chemical and bioactive profiles. To date, a total of 922 marine-derived piperazine alkaloids have been reported from various marine organisms. These compounds demonstrate a wide range of pharmacological properties, including cytotoxicity, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and various other activities. Notably, among these activities, cytotoxicity emerges as the most prominent characteristic of marine-derived piperazine alkaloids. This review also summarizes the structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies associated with the cytotoxicity of these compounds. In summary, our objective is to provide an overview of the research progress concerning marine-derived piperazine alkaloids, with the aim of fostering their continued development and utilization.

Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 2023:10.1007/s10482-023-01851-y. [PMID: 37358702 DOI: 10.1007/s10482-023-01851-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/31/2023] [Indexed: 06/27/2023]
Abstract
The genus Gallaecimonas, proposed by Rodríguez-Blanco et al. (Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 60:504-509, 2010), is mainly isolated from marine environments. So far, only three species have been identified and characterized in this genus. In this study, a new Gallaecimonas strain named Q10T was isolated from the sediments of mangrove plant Kandelia obovate taken from Dapeng district, Shenzhen, China. Strain Q10T was a Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium, and grew with 0-8.0% (w/v) NaCl, at 10-45 °C and at pH 5.5-8.5. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that strain Q10T and the three Gallaecimonas species formed a clade in the tree, with 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities ranging from 96.0 to 97.0%. The major respiratory quinone is Q8. The polar lipids comprised aminolipid, aminophospholipid, diphosphatidylglycerol, glycolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, glycophospholipid and phospholipid. The predominant fatty acids are C16:0, C17:1ω8c, summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c/C16:1ω6c), and iso-C16:0. The complete genome of strain Q10T is 3,836,841 bp with a G+C content of 62.6 mol%. The orthologous proteins analysis revealed 55 unique proteins in strain Q10T related to important biological processes, especially three frataxins related to iron-sulfur cluster assembly, which may play a pivotal role in environmental adaptability of this species. Based on polyphasic taxonomic data, strain Q10T is considered to represent a novel species within the genus Gallaecimonas, for which the name Gallaecimonas kandelia sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Q10T (=KCTC 92860T=MCCC 1K08421T). These results contribute to a better understanding of general features and taxonomy of the genus Gallaecimonas.

Abstract
Marine sediments are one of the largest habitats on Earth, and their unique ecology, such as high salinity, high pressure, and hypoxia, may activate certain silent genes in marine microbes, resulting in microbes, enzymes, active products, and specific metabolic pathways that can adapt to these specific ecological environments. Marine sediment-derived microorganisms and their bioactive metabolites are of great significance and have potential commercial development prospects for food, pharmaceutical, chemical industries, agriculture, environmental protection and human nutrition and health. In recent years, although there have been numerous scientific reports surrounding marine sediment-derived microorganisms and their bioactive metabolites, a comprehensive review of their research progress is lacking. This paper presents the development and renewal of traditional culture-dependent and omics analysis techniques and their application to the screening of marine sediment-derived microorganisms producing bioactive substances. It also highlights recent research advances in the last five years surrounding the types, functional properties and potential applications of bioactive metabolites produced by marine sediment-derived microorganisms. These bioactive metabolites mainly include antibiotics, enzymes, enzyme inhibitors, sugars, proteins, peptides, and some other small molecule metabolites. In addition, the review ends with concluding remarks on the challenges and future directions for marine sediment-derived microorganisms and their bioactive metabolites. The review report not only helps to deepen the understanding of marine sediment-derived microorganisms and their bioactive metabolites, but also provides some useful information for the exploitation and utilization of marine microbial resources and the mining of new compounds with potential functional properties.

Abstract
The emergence of drug-resistant Vibrio poses a serious threat to aquaculture and human health, thus there is an urgent need for the discovery of new related antibiotics. Given that marine microorganisms (MMs) are evidenced as important sources of antibacterial natural products (NPs), great attention has been gained to the exploration of potential anti-Vibrio agents from MMs. This review summarizes the occurrence, structural diversity, and biological activities of 214 anti-Vibrio NPs isolated from MMs (from 1999 to July 2022), including 108 new compounds. They were predominantly originated from marine fungi (63%) and bacteria (30%) with great structural diversity, including polyketides, nitrogenous compounds, terpenoids, and steroids, among which polyketides account for nearly half (51%) of them. This review will shed light on the development of MMs derived NPs as potential anti-Vibrio lead compounds with promising applications in agriculture and human health.

Abstract
Marine microbes genetically evolved to survive varying salinity, temperature, pH, and other stress factors by producing different bioactive metabolites. These microbial secondary metabolites (SMs) are novel, have high potential, and could be used as lead molecule. Genome sequencing of microbes revealed that they have the capability to produce numerous novel bioactive metabolites than observed under standard in vitro culture conditions. Microbial genome has specific regions responsible for SM assembly, termed biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), possessing all the necessary genes to encode different enzymes required to generate SM. In order to augment the microbial chemo diversity and to activate these gene clusters, various tools and techniques are developed. Metagenomics with functional gene expression studies aids in classifying novel peptides and enzymes and also in understanding the biosynthetic pathways. Genome shuffling is a high-throughput screening approach to improve the development of SMs by incorporating genomic recombination. Transcriptionally silent or lower level BGCs can be triggered by artificially knocking promoter of target BGC. Additionally, bioinformatic tools like antiSMASH, ClustScan, NAPDOS, and ClusterFinder are effective in identifying BGCs of existing class for annotation in genomes. This review summarizes the significance of BGCs and the different approaches for detecting and elucidating BGCs from marine microbes.

Abstract
The mangrove forests are a complex ecosystem, and the microbial communities in mangrove sediments play a critical role in the biogeochemical cycles of mangrove ecosystems. Mangrove sediments-derived microbes (MSM), as a rich reservoir of natural product diversity, could be utilized in the exploration of new antibiotics or drugs. To understand the structural diversity and bioactivities of the metabolites of MSM, this review for the first time provides a comprehensive overview of 519 natural products isolated from MSM with their bioactivities, up to 2021. Most of the structural types of these compounds are alkaloids, lactones, xanthones, quinones, terpenoids, and steroids. Among them, 210 compounds are obtained from bacteria, most of which are from Streptomyces, while 309 compounds are from fungus, especially genus Aspergillus and Penicillium. The pharmacological mechanisms of some representative lead compounds are well studied, revealing that they have important medicinal potentials, such as piericidins with anti-renal cell cancer effects, azalomycins with anti-MRSA activities, and ophiobolins as antineoplastic agents. The biosynthetic pathways of representative natural products from MSM have also been summarized, especially ikarugamycin, piericidins, divergolides, and azalomycins. In addition, the total synthetic strategies of representative secondary metabolites from MSM are also reviewed, such as piericidin A and borrelidin. This review provides an important reference for the research status of natural products isolated from MSM and the lead compounds worthy of further development, and reveals that MSM have important medicinal values and are worthy of further development.

Abstract
In this research, we developed a method so-called Isolation Chip with Plate Streaking (ICPS) to selectively enrich nitrifying microbial consortium for treating municipal wastewater. In batch experiment, these bacterial communities were able to remove NH3 -N in 72 h with an efficiency of 96%. Firmicutes, Bacteroidetes, and Proteobacteria species are dominant bacteria in these communities. When the bacterial communities were used in the membrane bioreactor under typical condition, the removal efficiency was 81.0%. In contrast, under the actual wastewater condition, the efficiency could reach 91.2%. All above results showed clearly that the consortium selected by our ICPS method could achieve high-efficient NH3 -N removal, thus offering a reliable technique for screening functional microorganisms in the field of water treatment. PRACTITIONER POINTS: ICPS technology was designed and used for screening specialized NH3 -N-removing isolates. The screening process benefited the growth of the dominant nitrifying bacteria Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. When the functional bacteria applied into the MBR, the NH3 -N removal efficiency was 91.2% under actual wastewater conditions.

Abstract
Diketopiperazines are potential structures with extensive biological functions, which have attracted much attention of natural product researchers for a long time. These compounds possess a stable six-membered ring, which is an important pharmacophore. The marine organisms have especially been proven to be a wide source for discovering diketopiperazine derivatives. In recent years, more and more interesting bioactive diketopiperazines had been found from various marine habitats. This review article is focused on the new 2,5-diketopiperazines derived from marine organisms (sponges and microorganisms) reported from the secondary half-year of 2014 to the first half of the year of 2021. We will comment their chemical structures, biological activities and sources. The objective is to assess the merit of these compounds for further study in the field of drug discovery.

Exploring the Potential of Micrococcus luteus Culture Supernatant With Resuscitation-Promoting Factor for Enhancing the Culturability of Soil Bacteria. Front Microbiol 2021; 12:685263.

Abstract
A bacterial species is best characterized after its isolation in a pure culture. This is an arduous endeavor for many soil microorganisms, but it can be simplified by several techniques for improving culturability: for example, by using growth-promoting factors. We investigated the potential of a Micrococcus luteus culture supernatant containing resuscitation-promoting factor (SRpf) to increase the number and diversity of cultured bacterial taxa from a nutrient-rich compost soil. Phosphate-buffered saline and inactivated SRpf were included as controls. After agitation with SRpf at 28°C for 1 day, the soil suspension was diluted and plated on two different solid, oligotrophic media: tenfold diluted Reasoner’s 2A agar (R2A) and soil extract-based agar (SA). Colonies were collected from the plates to assess the differences in diversity between different treatments and cultivation media. The diversity on both R2A and SA was higher in the SRpf-amended extracts than the controls, but the differences on R2A were higher. Importantly, 51 potentially novel bacterial species were isolated on R2A and SA after SRpf treatment. Diversity in the soil extracts was also determined by high-throughput 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, which showed an increase in the abundance of specific taxa before their successful cultivation. Conclusively, SRpf can effectively enhance the growth of soil bacterial species, including those hitherto uncultured.

Abstract
A fungal metabolite, diatretol, has shown to be a promising antimalarial agent. Diatretol displayed potent in vitro antiparasitic activity against the Plasmodium falciparum K1 strain, with an IC50 value of 378 ng ml-1, as well as in vivo efficacy in a Plasmodium berghei-infected mice model, with ca. 50% inhibition at 30 mg/kg (p.o.).
