[PMID: 36922786 PMCID: PMC10015687 DOI: 10.1186/s12866-023-02770-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/11/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioprospecting of actinobacteria isolated from Kubuqi desert, China for antibacterial, antifungal and cytotoxic metabolites production and their structure elucidation. RESULTS A total of 100 actinobacteria strains were selectively isolated from Kubuqi desert, Inner Mongolia, China. The taxonomic characterization revealed Streptomyces as the predominant genus comprising 37 different species, along with the rare actinobacterial genus Lentzea. The methanolic extracts of 60.8% of strains exhibited potent antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and high to mild in vitro cytotoxicity against PC3 (prostate cancer) and A549 (lung carcinoma) cell lines. The metabolomics analysis by TLC, HPLC-UV/vis, HPLC-MS and NMR showed the presence of compounds with molecular weights ranging from 100 to 1000 Da. The scale-up fermentation of the prioritized anti-Gram-negative strain PU-KB10-4 (Streptomyces griseoviridis), yielded three pure compounds including; griseoviridin (1; 42.0 mgL- 1) with 20 fold increased production as compared to previous reports and its crystal structure as monohydrate form is herein reported for the first time, mitomycin C (2; 0.3 mgL- 1) and a new bacterial metabolite 4-hydroxycinnamide (3; 0.59 mgL- 1). CONCLUSIONS This is the first report of the bioprospecting and exploration of actinobacteria from Kubuqi desert and the metabolite 4-hydroxycinnamide (3) is first time isolated from a bacterial source. This study demonstrated that actinobacteria from Kubuqi desert are a potential source of novel bioactive natural products. Underexplored harsh environments like the Kubuqi desert may harbor a wider diversity of actinobacteria, particularly Streptomyces, which produce unique metabolites and are an intriguing source to develop medicinally valuable natural products.

Abstract
The Gram-stain-negative, golden-yellow-colored, non-spore-forming, strictly aerobic, slender rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated KN852T, was isolated from a seamount in the tropical western Pacific. The predominant respiratory quinone was MK-7 and the polar lipid profiles contained phosphatidylethanolamine, one unidentified phospholipid and six unidentified polar lipids. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15:0, summed feature 3(C16:1ω7c and/or iso-C15:0 2OH), iso-C17:0 3OH and iso-C15:1 G. Phylogenetic analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain KN852T was affiliated with the family Flammeovirgaceae of the phylum Bacteroidota and formed a distinct lineage. The genomic DNA G + C content of strain KN852T was 34.8%. Collectively, based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and genomic evidence presented, strain KN852T represents a novel species of a novel genus of the family Flammeovirgaceae, for which the name Marinigracilibium pacificum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is KN852T (= CGMCC 1.17119T = KCTC 72433T).

Abstract
Deserts, as an unexplored extreme ecosystem, are known to harbor diverse actinobacteria with biotechnological potential. Both multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens and environmental issues have sharply raised the emerging demand for functional actinobacteria. From 2000 to 2021, 129 new species have been continuously reported from 35 deserts worldwide. The two largest numbers are of the members of the genera Streptomyces and Geodermatophilus, followed by other functional extremophilic strains such as alkaliphiles, halotolerant species, thermophiles, and psychrotolerant species. Improved isolation strategies for the recovery of culturable and unculturable desert actinobacteria are crucial for the exploration of their diversity and offer a better understanding of their survival mechanisms under extreme environmental stresses. The main bioprospecting processes involve isolation of target actinobacteria on selective media and incubation and selection of representatives from isolation plates for further investigations. Bioactive compounds obtained from desert actinobacteria are being continuously explored for their biotechnological potential, especially in medicine. To date, there are more than 50 novel compounds discovered from these gifted actinobacteria with potential antimicrobial activities, including anti-MDR pathogens and anti-inflammatory, antivirus, antifungal, antiallergic, antibacterial, antitumor, and cytotoxic activities. A range of plant growth-promoting abilities of the desert actinobacteria inspired great interest in their agricultural potential. In addition, several degradative, oxidative, and other functional enzymes from desert strains can be applied in the industry and the environment. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of desert environments as a remarkable source of diverse actinobacteria while such rich diversity offers an underexplored resource for biotechnological exploitations.

Syst Appl Microbiol 2021; 44:126270. [PMID: 34653842 DOI: 10.1016/j.syapm.2021.126270] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2021] [Revised: 09/20/2021] [Accepted: 09/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Exploration of unexplored habitats for novel actinobacteria with high bioactivity potential holds great promise in the search for novel entities. During the course of isolation of actinobacteria from desert soils, four actinobacteria, designated as 5K548T, 7K502T, 16K309T and 16K404T, were isolated from the Karakum Desert and their bioactivity potential as well as taxonomic provenances were revealed by comprehensive genome analyses. Pairwise sequence analyses of the 16S rRNA genes indicated that the four strains are representatives of putatively novel taxa within the prolific actinobacterial genus Saccharopolyspora. The strains have typical chemotaxonomic characteristics of the genus Saccharopolyspora by having meso-diaminopimelic acid as diagnostic diaminoacid, arabinose, galactose and ribose as whole-cell sugars. Consistent with this assignment, all of the isolates contained phosphatidylcholine in their polar lipid profiles and MK-9(H4) as the predominant menaquinone. The sizes of the genomes of the isolates ranged from 6.0 to 10.2 Mb and the associated G + C contents from 69.6 to 69.7 %. Polyphasic characterizations including determination of overall genome relatedness indices revealed that the strains are representatives of four novel species in the genus Saccharopolyspora. Consequently, isolates 5K548T, 7K502T, 16K404T and 16K309T are proposed as novel Saccharopolyspora species for which the names of Saccharopolyspora karakumensis sp. nov., Saccharopolyspora elongata sp. nov., Saccharopolyspora aridisoli sp. nov. and Saccharopolyspora terrae sp. nov. are proposed, respectively. Comprehensive genome analysis for biosynthetic gene clusters showed that the strains have high potential for novel secondary metabolites. Moreover, the strains harbour many antimicrobial resistance genes providing more evidence for their potentiality for bioactive metabolites.

Abstract
A novel actinobacterial strain, designated 10F1D-1T, was isolated from soil sample collected from Futian mangrove nature reserve, China using of the in situ cultivation technique. Preliminary analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain 10F1D-1T was the member of genus Schumannella with sharing highest sequence similarity (99.7%) to Schumannella luteola DSM 23141T. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and core proteome consistently exhibited that strain 10F1D-1T formed a monophyletic clade with Schumannella luteola DSM 23141T. Comparative genomic analyses clearly separated strain 10F1D-1T from the only species of the genus Schumannella based on average nucleotide identity (ANI), average amino acid identity (AAI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values below the thresholds for species delineation. The genome of strain 10F1D-1T contains the biosynthetic gene clusters for osmoprotectants to adapt to the salt environment of mangrove. Strain 10F1D-1T also contains the biosynthetic gene clusters for bioactive compounds as secondary metabolites. On the basis of the polyphasic analysis, strain 10F1D-1T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Schumannella, for which the name Schumannella soli sp. nov. (type strain 10F1D-1T = CGMCC1.16699T = JCM 33146T) is proposed.

Abstract
Two Gram-stain-positive, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterial strains, S126T and S82T, were isolated from coastal algae of China. Strains S126T and S82T are halotolerant and could grow in the presence of 0-13% NaCl and 0-14% NaCl, respectively. The two strains shared 98.9% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with each other and 93.4-99.8% similarity with type strains of Exiguobacterium species. The major fatty acids (> 10%) of strains S126T and S82T were iso-C17:0, iso-C13:0, anteiso-C13:0 and iso-C15:0. The predominant quinones of strains S126T and S82T were MK-7 and MK-8. The polar lipid profiles of strain S126T and S82T contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine. The cell-wall peptidoglycans of both strains S126T and S82T were of the A3α L-Lys-Gly type. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and average nucleotide index (AAI) between strains S126T and S82T and type strains of Exiguobacterium species were all below the thresholds to discriminate bacterial species, indicating that they constitute two novel species in the genus Exiguobacterium. Based on polyphasic taxonomy characterization and genomic aspects, the names Exiguobacterium algae sp. nov. and Exiguobacterium qingdaonense sp. nov. are proposed for the two novel species, with type strains being S126T (= CGMCC 1.17116T = KCTC 43079 T) and S82T (= CGMCC 1.17115T = KCTC 43078T), respectively.

Abstract
The Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, ovoid or rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated KN286T, was isolated from seawater of tropical western Pacific. Growth occurred between 15 and 40 °C (optimally at 30-35 °C), pH 6-9 (optimally at 7.0) and in the presence of 0.5-5.0% (w/v) NaCl (optimally between 2.0 and 3.0%). Strain KN286T contained Q-10 as the major respiratory quinone. The polar lipid profile contained phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, three phospholipids, three glycolipids, and three unidentified polar lipids. The predominant cellular fatty acid was summed feature 8 (composed of C18:1ω7c and/or C18:1ω6c). Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain KN286T was a member of the family Rhodobacteraceae and formed a distinct lineage. Strain KN286T has a genome size of 3.25 Mbp and a G + C content of 65.0 mol%. It encoded with some genes for carbohydrate-active enzymes, such as GH20 (Glycoside Hydrolase Family 20) and PL1 (Polysaccharide Lyase Family 1) and did not encode with a set of genes for reduction of nitrate to nitrite (nitrate reductase gamma subunit, respiratory nitrate reductase alpha N-terminal and respiratory nitrate reductase beta C-terminal). Based on phylogenetic analyses with single-copy orthologous clusters, low isDDH value (19.6%), low ANI (72.4%) and low AAI (65.7%) results, differential chemotaxonomic and physiological properties, strain KN286T represents a novel species of a novel genus of the family Rhodobacteraceae, for which the name Oceanomicrobium pacificus gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Oceanomicrobium pacificus is KN286T (=CGMCC 1.17118T = KCTC 72430T).
