Abstract
A novel endophytic actinomycete, strain MEP2-6T, was isolated from scab tissues of potato tubers collected from Mae Fag Mai Sub-district, San Sai District, Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. Strain MEP2-6T is a gram-positive filamentous bacteria characterized by meso-diaminopimelic acid in cell wall peptidoglycan and arabinose, galactose, glucose, and ribose in whole-cell hydrolysates. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, and hydroxy-phosphatidylethanolamine were the major phospholipids, of which MK-9(H6) was the predominant menaquinone, whereas iso-C16:0 and iso-C15:0 were the major cellular fatty acids. The genome of the strain was 10,277,369 bp in size with a G + C content of 71.7%. The 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic and core phylogenomic analyses revealed that strain MEP2-6T was closely related to Amycolatopsis lexingtonensis NRRL B-24131T (99.4%), A. pretoriensis DSM 44654T (99.3%), and A. eburnea GLM-1T (98.9%). Notably, strain MEP2-6T displayed 91.7%, 91.8%, and 87% ANIb and 49%, 48.8%, and 35.4% dDDH to A. lexingtonensis DSM 44653T (=NRRL B-24131T), A. eburnea GLM-1T, and A. pretoriensis DSM 44654T, respectively. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and genomic data, strain MEP2-6T could be officially assigned to a novel species within the genus Amycolatopsis, for which the name Amycolatopsis solani sp. nov. has been proposed. The type of strain is MEP2-6T (=JCM 36309T = TBRC 17632T = NBRC 116395T). Amycolatopsis solani MEP2-6T was strongly proven to be a non-phytopathogen of potato scab disease because stunting of seedlings and necrotic lesions on potato tuber slices were not observed, and there were no core biosynthetic genes associated with the BGCs of phytotoxin-inducing scab lesions. Furthermore, comparative genomics can provide a better understanding of the genetic mechanisms that enable A. solani MEP2-6T to adapt to the plant endosphere. Importantly, the strain smBGCs accommodated 33 smBGCs encoded for several bioactive compounds, which could be beneficially applied in the fields of agriculture and medicine. Consequently, strain MEP2-6T is a promising candidate as a novel biocontrol agent and antibiotic producer.

Abstract
Two Gram-positive, non-motile, short rod-shaped actinomycete strains, designated as A18JL241T and Y20T, were isolated from deep-sea sediment samples collected from the Southwest Indian Ocean and Western Pacific Ocean, respectively. Both of the isolates were able to grow within the temperature range of 5-40 °C, NaCl concentration range of 0-7 % (w/v) and at pH 6.0-12.0. The two most abundant cellular fatty acids of both strains were anteiso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The major polar lipid contents of the two strains were phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and one unidentified glycolipid. These two strains shared common chemotaxonomic features comprising MK-10 and MK-12 as the respiratory quinones. The genomic DNA G+C contents of the two strains were 68.1 and 70.4 mol%, respectively. The 16S rRNA gene phylogeny showed that the novel strains formed two distinct sublines within the genus Microbacterium. Strain A18JL241T was most closely related to the type strain of Microbacterium tenebrionis KCTC 49593T (98.8 % sequence similarity), whereas strain Y20T formed a tight cluster with the type strain of Microbacterium schleiferi NBRC 15075T (99.0 %). The orthologous average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values with the type strains of related Microbacterium species were in the range of 74.1-89.1 % and 19.4-36.9 %, respectively, which were below the recognized thresholds of 95-96 % ANI and 70 % dDDH for species definition. Based on the results obtained here, it can be concluded that strains A18JL241T and Y20T represent two novel species of the genus Microbacterium, for which the names Microbacterium abyssi sp. nov. (type strain A18JL241T=JCM 33956T=MCCC 1A16622T) and Microbacterium limosum sp. nov. (type strain Y20T=JCM 33960T=MCCC 1A16747T) are proposed.

Abstract
A novel Gram-stain-positive, oval-shaped, and non-flagellated bacterial strain YIM S02556T was isolated from forest soil in Xiongbi Town, Shizong County, Qujing City, Yunnan Province, southwestern China. The strain exhibited high pairwise 16 S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Psychromicrobium lacuslunae (97.3%) and Psychromicrobium silvestre (96.3%). Strain YIM S02556T exhibited an average nucleotide identity (ANI) of 72.5% with P. lacuslunae IHBB 11,108T and 72.8% ANI with P. silvestre AK 20-18T. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) value between strain YIM S02556T and P. lacuslunae IHBB 11,108T was 20.2%, while with P. silvestre AK 20-18T, the dDDH value was 20.8%. Strain YIM S02556T exhibited optimal growth at 28 °C, pH 7.0, without NaCl. Growth occurred within 10-37 ℃, pH 5.0-8.0, and in the presence of up to 5% w/v NaCl concentration. The genome size was 3.1 Mbp with 64.2% G + C content. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8(H4). The major cellular fatty acid was anteiso-C15:0. Based on the polyphasic analysis, strain YIM S02556T (= KCTC 49,805T = CCTCC AB2020166T) represents a novel Psychromicrobium species in which the name Psychromicrobium xiongbiense sp.nov. was proposed.

Abstract
Three Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, short rod-shaped, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative actinomycete strains (SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T) were isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample collected from the Western Pacific Ocean. Cells of the three strains showed optimum growth at 30 °C and pH 7.0. Strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T could tolerate up to 10, 9 and 9 % (w/v) NaCl concentration and grow at pH 5.0-12.0, 5.0-11.0 and 5.0-11.0, respectively. Phylogenetic results based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the three isolates belonged to the genus Nocardioides and were identified as representing three novel species based on 78.0-93.1 % average nucleotide identity and 21.3-50.0 % DNA-DNA hybridization values with closely related reference strains. Strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T showed highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Nocardioides salarius CL-Z59T (99.2 %), Nocardioides deserti SC8A-24T (99.2 %) and Nocardioides marmotae zg-579T (98.5 %), respectively. All three strains had MK-8(H4) as the respiratory quinone, iso-C16 : 0 as the major fatty acid, and phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol as the major polar lipids. The diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan of all three isolates was ll-diaminopimelic acid. The DNA G+C contents of strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T were 71.1, 72.9 and 72.9 mol%, respectively. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic and genotypic data, strains SOB44T, SOB72T and SOB77T clearly represent three novel taxa within the genus Nocardioides, for which the names Nocardioides cremeus sp. nov. (type strain SOB44T=JCM 35774T= MCCC M28400T), Nocardioides abyssi sp. nov. (type strain SOB72T=JCM 35775T=MCCC M28318T) and Nocardioides oceani sp. nov. (type strain SOB77T=JCM 35776T=MCCC M28544T) are proposed.

Abstract
The actinomycete strain HSN-02 was isolated from the soil of a mining field in the Sandur region, Bellary, Karnataka, India. According to the morphological, cultural, physiological, and biochemical characteristics and the 16S rDNA sequence analysis, the strain HSN-02 was identified as Amycolatopsis sp. The antimicrobial activity strain HSN-02 presented stable and moderate inhibitory activity against human pathogens. In pot experiments in the greenhouse, the development of Cercospora leaf spot was markedly suppressed by treatment with the purified compound from the strain HSN-02, and the control efficacy was 45.04 ± 1.30% in Septoria lycopersici-infected tomato plants. A prominent compound was obtained from the fermentation broth of the strain HSN-02 using column chromatography and HPLC. The chemical structural analyses using UV, FTIR, HR-ESI-MS, and NMR confirmed that the compound produced by the strain HSN-02 is 7-hydroxyflavone. This investigation showed the role which the actinomycete strain can play in controlling leaf spots caused by S. lycopersici to reduce treatments with chemical fungicides.

Abstract
The taxonomic relationship of Streptomyces goshikiensis and Streptomyces sporoverrucosus was re-evaluated using comparative genome analysis. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that S. goshikiensis JCM 4640T and S. sporoverrucosus CGMCC 4.1796T shared 100% sequence similarity. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene and genomic sequences exhibited that they were closely related to each other. However, the values of average nucleotide identity (ANIb/ANIm) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) between the genomes of two type strains were 98.33%/98.69% and 87.2%, respectively, greater than the two recognized thresholds values of 96.7% ANI and 70% dDDH for species delineation. These results suggested that S. goshikiensis and S. sporoverrucosus should share the same taxonomic position. In addition, this conclusion was further supported by highly similar morphological, cultural, physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic characteristics between them. Consequently, it is proposed that S. sporoverrucosus is a later heterotypic synonym of S. goshikiensis.

Abstract
A Gram-stain-positive actinobacterium, designated strain GXMU-J5T, was isolated from a sample of shrimp pond soil collected in Tieshangang Saltern, Beihai, PR China. The morphological, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characteristics were consistent with its classification in the genus Streptomyces. The organism formed an extensively branched substrate mycelium, with abundant aerial hyphae that differentiated into spores. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain GXMU-J5T was most related to Streptomyces kunmingensis DSM 41681T (similarity 97.74 %) and Streptomyces endophyticus YIM 65594T (similarity 96.80 %). However, the values of digital DNA-DNA hybridization, average nucleotide identity and evolutionary distance of multilocus sequence analysis between strain GXMU-J5T and its closest relatives indicated that it represented a distinct species. Strain GXMU-J5T contained ll-diaminopimelic acid and the major whole-cell hydrolysates were xylose and galactose. The predominant menaquinones of strain GXMU-J5T were revealed as MK-9(H4), MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8). The polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylmethylethanolamine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol mannosides and phospholipids of unknown structure containing glucosamine. The predominant cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0, iso-C17 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. The whole genome size of strain GXMU-J5T was 6.79 Mbp with a 71.39 mol% G+C content. Genomic analysis indicated that strain GXMU-J5T had the potential to degrade chitin. On the basis of these genotypic and phenotypic data, it is supported that strain GXMU-J5T represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces beihaiensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain GXMU-J5T (=MCCC 1K08064T=JCM 35629T).

Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10102037. [PMID: 36296313 PMCID: PMC9611098 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10102037] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Revised: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Mount Everest provides natural advantages to finding radiation-resistant extremophiles that are functionally mechanistic and possess commercial significance. (1) Background: Two bacterial strains, designated S5-59T and S8-45T, were isolated from moraine samples collected from the north slope of Mount Everest at altitudes of 5700m and 5100m above sea level. (2) Methods: The present study investigated the polyphasic features and genomic characteristics of S5-59T and S8-45T. (3) Results: The major fatty acids and the predominant respiratory menaquinone of S5-59T and S8-45T were summed as feature 3 (comprising C16:1 ω6c and/or C16:1 ω7c) and ubiquinone-10 (Q-10). Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA sequences and average nucleotide identity values among these two strains and their reference type strains were below the species demarcation thresholds of 98.65% and 95%. Strains S5-59T and S8-45T harbored great radiation resistance. The genomic analyses showed that DNA damage repair genes, such as mutL, mutS, radA, radC, recF, recN, etc., were present in the S5-59T and S8-45T strains. Additionally, strain S5-59T possessed more genes related to DNA protection proteins. The pan-genome analysis and horizontal gene transfers revealed that strains of Sphingomonas had a consistently homologous genetic evolutionary radiation resistance. Moreover, enzymatic antioxidative proteins also served critical roles in converting ROS into harmless molecules that resulted in resistance to radiation. Further, pigments and carotenoids such as zeaxanthin and alkylresorcinols of the non-enzymatic antioxidative system were also predicted to protect them from radiation. (4) Conclusions: Type strains S5-59T (=JCM 35564T =GDMCC 1.3193T) and S8-45T (=JCM 34749T =GDMCC 1.2715T) represent two novel species of the genus Sphingomonas with the proposed name Sphingomonas qomolangmaensis sp. nov. and Sphingomonas glaciei sp. nov. The type strains, S5-59T and S8-45T, were assessed in a deeply genomic study of their radiation-resistant mechanisms and this thus resulted in a further understanding of their greater potential application for the development of anti-radiation protective drugs.

Abstract
A novel actinomycete, strain 1_25T, was isolated from soil under a black Gobi rock sample from Shuangta, PR China, and characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The results of comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated the 1_25T represented a member of the genus
Streptomyces
. Chemotaxonomic data revealed that 1_25T possessed MK-9(H8) as the major menaquinone. The cell wall contained ll-diaminopimelic acid (ll-DAP) and the whole-cell sugar pattern consisted of ribose, glucose and galactose. Major fatty acid methyl esters were observed to be iso-C16 : 0 (23.6 %), and anteiso-C15 : 0 (10.4 %). The genomic DNA G+C content of 1_25T was 69 mol %. The results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that 1_25T had high sequence similarity with
Streptomyces qinglanensis
172205T (98.1 %),
Streptomyces lycii
TRM 66187T (98 %), and
Streptomyces griseocarneus
JCM4580T (98 %). In addition to the differences in phenotypic characters, the average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between 1_25T and closely related species were below the recommended threshold values for assigning strains to the same species. The fermentation product of 1_25T in ISP2 had an inhibitory effect on
Staphylococcus aureus
. On the basis of these genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, strain 1_25T (=JCM 34936T=GDMCC 4.216T) represents a novel species of the genus
Streptomyces
, for which the name Streptomyces gobiensis sp. nov. is proposed.

Abstract
Two new marine actinobacteria, designated as J2-1T and J2-2T, were isolated from a coral, Favites pentagona, collected from Rayong Province, Thailand. The taxonomic positions of the two strains were identified based on polyphasic taxonomy. Based on morphological characteristics and chemotaxonomy, strains J2-1T and J2-2T were identified as members of the genus Streptomyces and Kineosporia, respectively. Strains J2-1T and J2-2T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Streptomyces broussonetiae T44T (98.62 %) and Kineosporia babensis VN05A0415T (98.08 %), respectively. Strain J2-1T had chemotaxonomic properties resembling members of the genus Streptomyces. ll-Diaminopimelic acid, glucose and ribose were detected in the whole-cell hydrolysate. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositolmannoside, unidentified aminolipid and five unidentified phospholipids were detected as the polar lipids. The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0 iso, C15 : 0 anteiso, C15 : 0 iso, C16 : 0, C17 : 0 anteiso, C14 : 0 iso and C17 : 0 iso. Strain J2-2T a showed similar cell composition to members of the genus Kineosporia. Both isomers of ll- and meso-diaminopimelic acid were detected in the peptidoglycan. Arabinose, galactose, madurose and xylose were observed in the whole-cell hydrolysate. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside, phosphatidylcholine, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified glycolipid. The major cellular fatty acids were C16 : 0, C18 : 1 ω9c, C18 : 0 10-methyl, tuberculostearic acid, C18 : 0 and C17 : 0. Both strains could be distinguished from their closely related type strains according to their phenotypic characteristics. Comparative genome analysis indicated the delineation of two novel species based on digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values, which were below 70 and 95 %, respectively. The names proposed are Streptomyces corallincola sp. nov. (J2-1T=TBRC 13503T=NBRC 115066T) and Kineosporia corallincola sp. nov. (J2-2T=TBRC 13504T=NBRC 114885T).

Abstract
As two separate genomic species, Streptomyces calvus and Streptomyces aureorectus were approved in 1980 and 1986, respectively. However, recently, it has been found that the average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between S. calvus JCM 4326T and S. aureorectus DSM 41692T were 99.19 and 92.70 %, respectively, much higher than 95-96 and 70 % cut-off points proposed and the generally accepted species boundaries. These data indicated that they should be classified as the same genomic species. Furthermore, this result was also supported by a comprehensive comparison of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and physio-biochemical characteristics between the two type strains. All these data indicated that S. calvus and S. aureorectus had the same taxonomic position. In accordance with the principle of priority, it is proposed that S. aureorectus is a later heterotypic synonyms of S. calvus.

Abstract
A novel Gram-stain positive, oval-shaped, and non-flagellated bacterium, designated YIM S02566T, was isolated from alpine soil in Shadui Towns, Ganzi County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, PR China. Growth occurred at 23-35 °C (optimum, 30 °C) in the presence of 0.5-4% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1%) and at pH 7.0-8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0). The phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain YIM S02566T was most closely related to the genus Aestuariimicrobium, with Aestuariimicrobium kwangyangense R27T and Aestuariimicrobium soli D6T as its closest relative (sequence similarities were 96.3% and 95.4%, respectively). YIM S02566T contained LL-diaminopimelic acid in the cell wall. MK-9(H4) was the predominant menaquinone. The major fatty acid patterns were anteiso-C15:0 (60.0%). The major polar lipid was DPG. The genome size of strain YIM S02566T was 3.1 Mb, comprising 3078 predicted genes with a DNA G + C content of 69.0 mol%. Based on these genotypic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic evidences, strain YIM S02566T was identified as a novel species in the genus Aestuariimicrobium, for which the name Aestuariimicrobium ganziense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM S02566T (= CGMCC 1.18751 T = KCTC 49,477 T).

Abstract
This study was designed to investigate the cultivable actinobacteria associated with bryophytes and their plant growth promoting ability. Thirteen actinobacteria were isolated and tested for their ability to promote growth of plant in vitro and in planta. All isolates were able to produce IAA and siderophores. Six isolates were identified as members of the genus Micromonospora. Five isolates belonged to the genus Streptomyces and one each of Microbispora and Mycobacterium. Micromonospora sp. CMU55-4 was inoculated to rare moss [Physcomitrium sphaericum (C. Ludw.) Fürnr.] and could increase the amount of carotenoid, fresh weight, and dry weight of this moss. In addition, this strain promoted capsule production, and rescued P. sphaericum’s gametophytes during acclimatization to land. Strain CMU55-4 was identified as Micromonospora chalcea based on whole genome sequence analysis. Its plant growth promoting potential was further characterized through genome mining. The draft genome size was 6.6 Mb (73% GC). The genome contained 5,933 coding sequences. Functional annotation predicted encoded genes essential for siderophore production, phosphate solubilization that enable bacteria to survive under nutrient limited environment. Glycine-betaine accumulation and trehalose biosynthesis also aid plants under drought stress. M. chalcea CMU55-4 also exhibited genes for various carbohydrate metabolic pathways indicating those for efficient utilization of carbohydrates inside plant cells. Additionally, predictive genes for heat shock proteins, cold shock proteins, and oxidative stress such as glutathione biosynthesis were identified. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that bryophytes harbor plant growth promoting actinobacteria. A representative isolate, M. chalcea CMU55-4 promotes the growth of P. sphaericum moss and contains protein coding sequences related to plant growth promoting activities in its genome.

Abstract
An endophytic actinomycete strain SKH1-2 isolated from Musa (ABB) cv. 'Kluai Sao Kratuep Ho' collected in Suphan Buri province (14° 54' 22.5″ N/100° 04' 50″ E), Thailand, was identified as Streptomyces pseudovenezuelae based on phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, and 16S rRNA sequence analyses. A chemical investigation led to the isolation of two polyketide molecules from the n-butanol crude extract of the strain SKH1-2 culture broth. The compounds were purified using various chromatographic techniques and identified using spectroscopic methods compared with earlier published data. Compound 1, chartreusin, is known as an anti-Gram (+) bacterial compound and was active against Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Kocuria rhizophila ATCC 9341 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538p with MIC values of 3.1, 1.6 and 12.5 μg/mL, respectively. Compound 2, lumichrome, did not show activity against all tested microbes. To our knowledge, this is the first report of chartreusin and lumichrome isolated from S. pseudovenezuelae. Taken together, it could be proved that Thai plant species are valuable reservoirs of interesting endophytic actinomycetes producing several interesting biologically active compounds.

Abstract
A new bacterial strain, designated 452T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of the mangrove Avicennia marina in China. As determined, its cell wall peptidoglycan contained LL-diaminopimelic acid; MK-9(H8) and MK-9(H6) were the major isoprenoid quinones; and iso-C16:0 (31.3%), anteiso-C15:0 (16.9%), and iso-C15:0 (12.5%) were the major cellular fatty acids (>10.0%). Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain 452T formed a distinct lineage in the clade of the genus Streptomyces, and was closely related to S. coerulescens DSM 40146T (99.6% sequence identity), S. bellus DSM 40185T (99.5%), and S. coeruleorubidus DSM 41172T (99.3%). The DNA-DNA relatedness between strain 452T and these type strains ranged between 29.3 and 42.3%. Based on the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and phylogenetic features, the strain 452T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces nigra sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 452T (=KCTC 39960T = MCCC 1K03346T). Further, strain 452T extracts exhibited a pronounced antitumor activity against human cancer cell lines A549, HCT-116, and HepG2, but not against normal human colon cells CCD-18Co. Active substances in the fermentation broth of strain 452T were isolated by bioassay-guided analysis, and then purified using a macroporous resin, silica gel, sephadex LX-20 column, and semi-preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Eight proline-containing diketopiperazines, namely, cyclo(Pro-Ala), cyclo(Pro-Gly), cyclo(Pro-Phe), cyclo(Pro-Met), cyclo(Pro-Val), cyclo(Pro-Leu), cyclo(Pro-Tyr), and cyclo(L-Leu-trans-4-hydroxy-L-Pro), were identified by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The compounds displayed different levels of cytotoxicity. The highest cytotoxicity was exhibited by cyclo(Pro-Ala) and cyclo(Pro-Met) against A549 cells, and cyclo(Phe-Pro) and cyclo(Pro-Ala) against HCT-116 cells, with average IC50 values equal to 18.5, 27.3, 32.3, and 47.6 μg/mL, respectively. The diversity of diketopiperazines and other chemicals produced by 452T was further investigated using gas chromatography (GC)-MS and liquid chromatography (LC)-MS. The analysis revealed 16 types of metabolites with antitumor activity and 16 other types of diketopiperazines. Hence, extracts of the newly identified strain may be used a starting material for the development of antitumor agents.

Abstract
The group of Gram-positive bacillary organisms broadly known as "aerobic actinomycetes" consists of heterogeneous and taxonomically divergent genera. They are found in a wide variety of natural and man-made environments but are rarely considered a part of the normal human flora, with infections normally originating from exogenous sources. An extensive number of genera have been described, but only a minority of these has been associated with human or veterinary health. The association with human disease is usually of an opportunistic nature, either through accidental means of inoculation or through involvement with immunocompromising conditions in the host. They cause a wide spectrum of diseases in humans, which may differ greatly between the genera and even between species, but which also may have a great amount of overlap. The occurrence of such infections is probably greater than appreciated, since many may go unrecognized. Etiologic prevalence of specific genera and species varies geographically within the United States and worldwide. Traditional phenotypic identification methods for separation of the many genera and species of aerobic actinomycetes have found great difficulties. Recent use of chemotaxonomic analyses and emerging technologies such as molecular analysis of nucleic acids, and more recently proteomics for identification to the genus/species level, has provided a far more robust technique to understand the organisms' relatedness, distribution, epidemiology, and pathogenicity in humans.

Braz J Microbiol 2016; 47:571-86. [PMID: 27245130 PMCID: PMC4927648 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjm.2016.04.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2015] [Accepted: 02/20/2016] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
An analysis of wastewater samples collected from different industrial regions of Egypt demonstrated dangerously high levels of nickel (0.27-31.50mgL(-1)), chromium (1.50-7.41mgL(-1)) and zinc (1.91-9.74mgL(-1)) in the effluents. Alarmingly, these heavy metals are among the most toxic knownones to humans and wildlife. Sixty-nine Actinomycete isolates derived from contaminated sites were evaluated under single, binary, and ternary systems for their biosorption capacity for Ni(2+), Cr(6+) and Zn(2+) from aqueous solutions. The results of the study identified isolates MORSY1948 and MORSY2014 as the most active biosorbents. Phenotypic and chemotypic characterization along with molecular phylogenetic evidence confirmed that the two strains are members of the Nocardiopsis and Nocardia genera, respectively. The results also proved that for both the strains, heavy metal reduction was more efficient with dead rather than live biomass. The affinity of the dead biomass of MORSY1948 strain for Ni(2+), Cr(6+) and Zn(2+) under the optimized pH conditions of 7, 8 and 7, respectively at 40°C temperature with 0.3% biosorbent dosage was found to be as follows: Ni(2+) (87.90%)>Zn(2+) (84.15%)>Cr(6+) (63.75%). However, the dead biomass of MORSY2014 strain under conditions of pH 8 and 50°C temperature with 0.3% biosorbent dose exhibited the highest affinity which was as follows: Cr(6+) (95.22%)>Ni(2+) (93.53%)>Zn(2+) (90.37%). All heavy metals under study were found to be removed from aqueous solutions in entirety when the sorbent dosage was increased to 0.4%.

Abstract
A novel streptomycete strain, designated XY25T, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil in an alfalfa field in Jingyang, Shanxi, China. The isolate showed optimal growth at 37 °C, and was capable of growing at pH 6-10 and in the presence of 0-6 % (w/v) NaCl. Mycelia of strain XY25T appeared spiral and developed into white spore chains with long-rod spores and a smooth surface. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of XY25T was determined and was found to be highly similar to those of species of the genus Streptomyces including Streptomyces silaceus DSM 41861T (99.11 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity), Streptomyces flavofungini DSM 40366T (98.49 %) and Streptomyces intermedius DSM 40372T (98.43 %), all of which were used for further characterization. Each of the four streptomycetes showed distinctive patterns of carbon usage and fatty acids composition. Analysis of cellular components of strain XY25T revealed ll-diaminopimelic acid as diagnostic diamino acid and xylose as the major sugar, whereas polar lipids were determined as phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, an unknown phospholipid, two unknown phosphatidylinositol mannosides and several unknown lipids. Menaquinones were dominated by MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8), and the main fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0, iso-C16 : 0 and anteiso-C17 : 0. DNA-DNA hybridization studies indicated that strain XY25T showed relatedness values of 35.2-40.42 % with the closest related species. Based on these results, strain XY25T represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces alfalfae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XY25T ( = KCTC 39571T = CCTCC AA2015019T).

Abstract
Corynebacterium jeikeium, a resident of human skin, is often associated with multidrug resistant nosocomial infections in immunodepressed patients. C. jeikeium K411 belongs to mycolic acid-containing actinomycetes, the mycolata and contains a channel-forming protein as judged from reconstitution experiments with artificial lipid bilayer experiments. The channel-forming protein was present in detergent treated cell walls and in extracts of whole cells using organic solvents. A gene coding for a 40 amino acid long polypeptide possibly responsible for the pore-forming activity was identified in the known genome of C. jeikeium by its similar chromosomal localization to known porH and porA genes of other Corynebacterium strains. The gene jk0268 was expressed in a porin deficient Corynebacterium glutamicum strain. For purification temporarily histidine-tailed or with a GST-tag at the N-terminus, the homogeneous protein caused channel-forming activity with an average conductance of 1.25 nS in 1M KCl identical to the channels formed by the detergent extracts. Zero-current membrane potential measurements of the voltage dependent channel implied selectivity for anions. This preference is according to single-channel analysis caused by some excess of cationic charges located in the channel lumen formed by oligomeric alpha-helical wheels. The channel has a suggested diameter of 1.4 nm as judged from the permeability of different sized hydrated anions using the Renkin correction factor. Surprisingly, the genome of C. jeikeium contained only one gene coding for a cell wall channel of the PorA/PorH type found in other Corynebacterium species. The possible evolutionary relationship between the heterooligomeric channels formed by certain Corynebacterium strains and the homooligomeric pore of C. jeikeium is discussed.

Abstract
The advanced Marfey's method consists of a chromatography technique for the separation of amino acids into each enantiomer by derivatization with 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrophenyl-5-L-leucinamide (L-FDLA), and a detection method using liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS) which can determine the non-empirically the absolute configuration of various amino acids including the non-protein ones. However, this method has not been applied to the determination of the absolute configuration of an amino acid with a "meso" configuration such as diaminopimelic acid (A2pm). In the present study, this method was successfully applied to determine the absolute configurations of diaminosuccinic acid (DAS), A2pm, cystine (Cys), selenocystine (SeCys) and homocystine (HomoCys) using a racemization procedure and the DL-FDLA method, and the resulting elution behavior was summarized as follows: (1) the LL- and meso-isomers were eluted prior to the DD-isomer except for one case; (2) the LL- and meso-isomers are closely eluted and the elution was occasionally reversed; (3) the retention time for both the L- and D-derivatives of the meso-isomer was not changed; (4) the complementary use of the two solvent systems using CH3CN and MeOH was effective to obtain a chromatogram with a high resolution; (5) the abnormality, such as the elution order and peak shape, was observed in the elution behavior of DAS.

Abstract
A previous phylogenetic study on type strains of the genus Micromonospora and Micromonospora species bearing non-validly published names has pointed towards the species status of several of latter strains. Subsequent studies on morphological, cultural, chemotaxonomic, metabolic, and genomic properties, and on whole cell mass spectrometric analyses by matrix adsorbed laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) confirmed the species status, leading to the proposal of eight new Micromonospora species: Micromonospora citrea sp. nov., type strain DSM 43903T, Micromonospora echinaurantiaca sp. nov., type strain DSM 43904T, Micromonospora echinofusca sp. nov., type strain DSM 43913T, Micromonospora fulviviridis sp. nov., type strain DSM 43906T, Micromonospora inyonensis sp. nov., type strain DSM 46123T, Micromonospora peucetia sp. nov., type strain DSM 43363T, Micromonospora sagamiensis sp. nov., type strain DSM 43912T and Micromonospora viridifaciens sp. nov., type strain DSM 43909T.

Abstract
Three puffer fishes, Fugu rubripes, collected from the Bohai Sea of China were examined for tetrodotoxin-producing microorganisms. An actinomycete isolated from the ovaries of the puffer fishes was found to produce tetrodotoxin. After being cultured at 28 degrees C for 7 days, cells were harvested by centrifuge and disrupted by ultrasonication. The toxin was purified from the cell lyzate by ultrafiltration, active charcoal column, Bio-gel-p2 and ion exchange column chromatography. Mouse neuroblastoma cell culture, thin-layer chromatography, fluorimetric spectrophotometry, UV-spectrophotometry and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, together with mouse bioassay demonstrated that the isolated strain produced tetrodotoxin and related toxin during cultivation. Based on morphological, physiological, biochemical characteristics and 16S rDNA alignment, this strain was identified as Nocardiopsis dassonvillei. Our findings suggested that N. dassonvillei in the ovaries was closely related to the toxification of the puffer fish.

Abstract
The taxonomic position of two Tsukamurella strains isolated from activated sludge foam was clarified. The organisms, isolates JC85 and N1176T, were found to have chemical and morphological properties typical of members of the genus Tsukamurella. DNA–DNA relatedness studies showed that the strains formed a distinct genomic species that was most closely related to Tsukamurella spumae. The two isolates also share a range of phenotypic properties that distinguishes them from representatives of all species of Tsukamurella with validly published names. It is evident from the data that the two organisms should be classified as a novel Tsukamurella species, Tsukamurella pseudospumae sp. nov. The type strain is N1176T (=DSM 44118T=NCIMB 13963T).

Abstract
An alkaliphilic actinomycete strain, designated YIM 80379T, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the eastern desert of Egypt and subjected to polyphasic taxonomy. The strain produced substrate and aerial mycelia on different media, with an optimum pH for growth of 9.5-10 and scarce or no growth at pH 7. Strain YIM 80379T contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, no diagnostic sugars, type PIII phospholipids and MK-10(H6) and MK-10(H8) as the predominant menaquinones. All of these characters assign isolate YIM 80379T consistently to the genus Nocardiopsis. This was confirmed by 16S rDNA analysis. It can be differentiated from all Nocardiopsis species with validly published names by phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic analysis and DNA-DNA hybridization results. On the basis of polyphasic evidence, a novel species, Nocardiopsis alkaliphila sp. nov., is proposed. The type strain of the species is YIM 80379T (=CCTCC AA001031T=DSM 44657T).

Abstract
A lytic phage with species-specific activity was isolated from wool samples infected with the actinomycete Dermatophilus congolensis, the agent of 'lumpy wool', collected from properties in Western Australia. The physiochemical properties, plaque morphology, host range and particle morphology of the phage isolated were characterized. The isolated phage reduced the cell numbers of Dermatophilus congolensis on infected wool samples in vitro. It may therefore have potential as a biocontrol agent of dermatophilosis.

Abstract
The aerobic actinomycetes are soil-inhabiting microorganisms that occur worldwide. In 1888, Nocard first recognized the pathogenic potential of this group of microorganisms. Since then, several aerobic actinomycetes have been a major source of interest for the commercial drug industry and have proved to be extremely useful microorganisms for producing novel antimicrobial agents. They have also been well known as potential veterinary pathogens affecting many different animal species. The medically important aerobic actinomycetes may cause significant morbidity and mortality, in particular in highly susceptible severely immunocompromised patients, including transplant recipients and patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus. However, the diagnosis of these infections may be difficult, and effective antimicrobial therapy may be complicated by antimicrobial resistance. The taxonomy of these microorganisms has been problematic. In recent revisions of their classification, new pathogenic species have been recognized. The development of additional and more reliable diagnostic tests and of a standardized method for antimicrobial susceptibility testing and the application of molecular techniques for the diagnosis and subtyping of these microorganisms are needed to better diagnose and treat infected patients and to identify effective control measures for these unusual pathogens. We review the epidemiology and microbiology of the major medically important aerobic actinomycetes.

Abstract
The cell wall of leprosy-derived corynebacteria (a group of 'diphtheroids' isolated from human leprosy lesions and patients' blood) was previously shown to contain, in addition to peptidoglycan and arabinogalactan, mycolic acids. These alpha-branched beta-hydroxy fatty acids were attributed to the corynomycolic group, according to their RF in monodimensional thin-layer chromatography. In the present work, mycolic acids from leprosy-derived and reference corynebacteria have been fractionated by monodimensional and bidimensional thin-layer chromatography and by gas chromatography. Pyrolyzed mycolic acids have been analyzed on conventional packed columns, whereas intact methyl esters of mycolic acids with free and silylated beta-hydroxyl group have been analyzed on capillary columns, and their structure has been established by mass spectrometry. In all leprosy-derived corynebacteria, some 20 components containing 24-36 carbon atoms and 0-4 double bonds were obtained. The three major groups had 32, 34 and 36 carbons, and the frequency of unsaturated versus saturated chains increased proportionally to the molecular weight. For comparison, the main components of a reference corynebacterium. Corynebacterium diphtheriae PW8, had 30 and 32 carbons, and their hydrocarbon chains were essentially saturated. This work confirms the relative chemical homogeneity of different leprosy-derived corynebacteria and describes some peculiar traits in the chemical structure of this group of organisms. In addition, it shows the complexity of the mycolic acid fraction of corynebacterial cell wall and suggests that the mycolic acid pattern is a sort of fingerprint of each bacterial strain grown under standard conditions. Finally, the fractionation of intact corynomycolic acid methyl esters with free or silylated beta-hydroxyl group by capillary gas chromatography proved to be the best analytical procedure at present available for resolving this complex mixture of corynomycolate isomers. Structural determination of silylated samples by mass spectrometry is preferred because they have more diagnostic fragments.

Abstract
The composition in the cell wall sugars of 13 strains of Conidiobolus coronatus and 1 strain of Conidiobolus incongruus has been determined. Glucose and mannose were found to be the main sugars. The study of the ratio mannose/glucose has shown that there are 3 groups of strains. The first group which contains the strain of C. coronatus isolated from man or chimpanzee is characterized by a ratio lying between 0.92 and 1.3. The second group containing the strains of C. coronatus isolated from horse lesion or from soil is characterized by a ratio lying between 2.7 and 4.1. The last group which contains C. incongruus whose ratio mannose/glucose is 0.44. These results suggest the existence of two groups among the strains of C. coronatus. Lethal temperature of each strain and eventual presence of villosus spores are also mentioned.

Abstract
Sixty-four strains of Neisseria, Moraxella, and Acinetobacter were screened for cellular monosaccharides by gas-liquid chromatography and other chromatographic techniques. The four sugars ribose, glucose, glucosamine, and 2-keto-3-deoxyoctonate (KDO) were detected in all strains. Heptose was detected only in "true neisseriae" (Neisseria gonorrhoeae, N. meningitidis, N. sicca, N. cinerea, N. flavescens, and N. elongata) and in the tentaively named species Moraxella urethralis. Some marked interspecies dissimilarities within groups were revealed. Thus, N. ovis and M. atlantae were characterized by the presence of mannose. Intraspecies differences were also encountered. N. meningitidis strains of serogroups B and C were distinguished from strains of serogroup A by their sialic acid content. This sugar was also detected in two out of three examined strains of M. nonliquefaciens. In Acinetobacter, heterogeneity of monosaccharide patterns was rather pronounced. The results show the applicability of gas chromatographic "monosaccharide" profiles fo whole cells or extracted carbohydrate in bacterial classification and identification, including differentiation at the subspecies level. In addition, such profiles may be useful for monitoring during purification of cellular polysaccharides.

Abstract
Useful biochemical markers for the classification of Actinomycetales are: 1. DL- or LL-diaminopimelic acid in the peptidoglycan, 2. sugar composition of polysaccharides, 3. fatty acid spectrum of cell lipids. The occurrence of various kinds of branched fatty acids and of unsaturated fatty acids is of special value.

Abstract
Corynomycolic acids have been identified in the lipids of Brevibacterium vitarumen. The analogy between this strain and typical aerobic Corynebacteria is borne out by these complex lipids, corynomycolic acid being linked as 6,6'-dicorynomycoloyl-trehalose (cord-factor structure) and as 6-monocorynomycoloyl-trehalose.
