Abstract
This brief review aims to draw attention to the biotechnological potential of actinomycetes. Their main uses as sources of antibiotics and in agriculture would be enough not to neglect them; however, as we will see, their biotechnological application is much broader. Far from intending to exhaust this issue, we present a short survey of the research involving actinomycetes and their applications published in the last 23 years. We highlight a perspective for the discovery of new active ingredients or new applications for the known metabolites of these microorganisms that, for approximately 80 years, since the discovery of streptomycin, have been the main source of antibiotics. Based on the collected data, we organize the text to show how the cosmopolitanism of actinomycetes and the evolutionary biotic and abiotic ecological relationships of actinomycetes translate into the expression of metabolites in the environment and the richness of biosynthetic gene clusters, many of which remain silenced in traditional laboratory cultures. We also present the main strategies used in the twenty-first century to promote the expression of these silenced genes and obtain new secondary metabolites from known or new strains. Many of these metabolites have biological activities relevant to medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology industries, including candidates for new drugs or drug models against infectious and non-infectious diseases. Below, we present significant examples of the antimicrobial spectrum of actinomycetes, which is the most commonly investigated and best known, as well as their non-antimicrobial spectrum, which is becoming better known and increasingly explored.

Abstract
Thirty-five norsesquiterpenoids were isolated from the fermentation broth of Streptomyces microflavus from the forest soil of Ailaoshan in China. The structures of new compounds (1-5, 10-26) were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic analysis including data from experimental and calculated ECD spectra, as well as Mosher's reagent derivatives method. Norsesquiterpenoids showed different levels of antifungal activity with MIC80 values ranging from 25 to 200 μg/mL against Candida albicans, Candida parapsilosis, and Cryptococcus neoformans. The combining isolated norsesquiterpenoids with amphotericin B resulted in a synergistic interaction against test yeast-like fungi with a fractional inhibitory concentration index < 0.5. Compound 33 significantly inhibited biofilm formation and destroyed the preformed biofilm of fungi. Moreover, 33 downregulated the expression of adhesion-related genes HWP1, ALS1, ALS3, ECE1, EAP1, and BCR1 to inhibit the adhesion of C. albicans. Findings from the current study highlight the potential usage of norsesquiterpenoids from soil-derived Streptomyces for antifungal leads discovery.

Abstract
Cinnamoyl moiety containing nonribosomal peptides represented by pepticinnamin E are a growing family of natural products isolated from different Streptomyces species and possess diverse bioactivities. The soil bacterium Streptomyces mirabilis P8-A2 harbors a cryptic pepticinnamin biosynthetic gene cluster, producing azodyrecins as major products. Inactivation of the azodyrecin biosynthetic gene cluster by CRISPR-BEST base editing led to the activation and production of pepticinnamin E (1) and its analogues, pepticinnamins N, O, and P (2-4), the structures of which were determined by detailed NMR spectroscopy, HRMS data, and Marfey's reactions. These new compounds did not show a growth inhibitory effect against the LNCaP and C4-2B prostate cancer lines, respectively.

Abstract
Azoxy compounds are a distinctive group of bioactive secondary metabolites characterized by a unique RN═N+(O-)R moiety. The azoxy moiety is present in various classes of metabolites that exhibit various biological activities. The enzymatic mechanisms underlying azoxy bond formation remain enigmatic. Azodyrecins are cytotoxic azoxy metabolites produced by Streptomyces mirabilis P8-A2. Here, we cloned and confirmed the putative azd biosynthetic gene cluster through CATCH cloning followed by expression and production of azodyrecins in two heterologous hosts, S. albidoflavus J1074 and S. coelicolor M1146, respectively. We explored the function of 14 enzymes in azodyrecin biosynthesis through gene knockout using CRISPR-Cas9 base editing in the native producer, S. mirabilis P8-A2. The key intermediates were analyzed in the mutants through MS/MS fragmentation studies, revealing azoxy bond formation via the conversion of hydrazine to an azo compound followed by further oxygenation. Enzymes involved in modifications of the precursor could be postulated based on their predicted function and the intermediates identified in the knockout strains. Moreover, the distribution of the azoxy biosynthetic gene clusters across Streptomyces spp. genomes is explored, highlighting the presence of these clusters in over 20% of the Streptomyces spp. genomes and revealing that azoxymycin and valanimycin are scarce, while azodyrecin and KA57A-like clusters are widely distributed across the phylogenetic tree.

Abstract
A triple mutant (strain KA57) of Streptomyces rochei 7434AN4 produces an azoxy-alkene compound, KA57A, which was not detected in a parent strain or other single and double mutants. This strain accumulated several additional minor components, whose structures were elucidated. HPLC analysis of strain KA57 indicated the presence of two UV active components (KA57D1 and KA57D2) as minor components. They exhibited a maximum UV absorbance at 218 nm, whereas a UV absorbance of azoxy-alkene KA57A was detected at 236 nm, suggesting that both KA57D1 and KA57D2 contain a different chromophore from KA57A. KA57D1 has a molecular formula of C12H22N2O2, and NMR analysis revealed KA57D1 is a novel hydrazide-alkene compound, (Z)-N-acetyl-N'-(hex-1-en-1-yl)isobutylhydrazide. Labeling studies indicated that nitrogen Nβ of KA57D1 is derived from l-glutamic acid, and the isobutylamide unit (C-1 to C-3, 2-Me, and Nα) originates from valine. KA57D2 has a molecular formula of C13H24N2O2, and its structure was determined to be (Z)-N-acetyl-N'-(hex-1-en-1-yl)-2-methylbutanehydrazide, in which a 2-methylbutanamide unit was shown to originate from isoleucine. Different biogenesis of the Nα atom (l-serine for KA57A, l-valine for KA57D1, and l-isoleucine for KA57D2) indicates the relaxed substrate recognition for nitrogen-nitrogen bond formation in the biosyntheses of KA57A, KA57D1, and KA57D2.

Abstract
Six new azoxy-aromatic compounds (o-alkylazoxymycins A-F, 1-6) and two new nitrogen-bearing phenylvaleric/phenylheptanoic acid derivatives (o-alkylphemycins A and B, 7 and 8) were isolated from Streptomyces sp. Py50. Their structures were elucidated based on HRESIMS, NMR, UV spectroscopic analyses, and X-ray crystallographic data. O-Alkylazoxymycins A-F (1-6) are the first natural examples of azoxy compounds with the azoxy bond attached to the ortho-position of the phenylheptanoic acid or phenylvaleric acid moiety. Compounds 1, 5, and 6 were active against Epidermophyton floccosum with MIC50 values ranging from 10.1 to 51.2 μM. A plausible biosynthetic pathway of 2 and 3 was proposed.

Abstract
Thiopeptides are macrocyclic natural products with potent bioactivity. Nine new natural thiopeptides (1−9) were obtained from a Nonomuraea jiangxiensis isolated from a terrestrial soil sample collected in Singapore. Even though some of these compounds were previously synthesized or isolated from engineered strains, herein we report the unprecedented isolation of these thiopeptides from a native Nonomuraea jiangxiensis. A comparison with the literature and a detailed analysis of the NMR and HRMS of compounds 1−9 was conducted to assign their chemical structures. The structures of all new compounds were highly related to the thiopeptide antibiotics GE2270, with variations in the substituents on the thiazole and amino acid moieties. Thiopeptides 1−9 exhibited a potent antimicrobial activity against the Gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus with MIC90 values ranging from 2 µM to 11 µM. In addition, all compounds were investigated for their cytotoxicity against the human cancer cell line A549, none of the compounds were cytotoxic.

Large scale cultivation and chemical investigation of an extract obtained from Actimonadura sp. resulted in the identification of six previously undescribed spirotetronates (pyrrolosporin B and decatromicins C-G; 7-12), along with six known congeners, namely decatromicins A-B (1-2), BE-45722B-D (3-5), and pyrrolosporin A (6). The chemical structures of compounds 1-12 were characterized via comparison with previously reported data and analysis of 1D/2D NMR and MS data. The structures of all new compounds were highly related to the spirotetronate type compounds, decatromicin and pyrrolosporin, with variations in the substituents on the pyrrole and aglycone moieties. All compounds were evaluated for antibacterial activity against the Gram-negative bacteria, Acinetobacter baumannii and Gram-positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus and were investigated for their cytotoxicity against the human cancer cell line A549. Of these, decatromicin B (2), BE-45722B (3), and pyrrolosporin B (7) exhibited potent antibacterial activities against both Gram-positive (MIC90 between 1-3 μM) and Gram-negative bacteria (MIC90 values ranging from 12-36 μM) with weak or no cytotoxic activity against A549 cells.

Abstract
Only a few azoxy natural products have been identified despite their intriguing biological activities. Azodyrecins D–G, four new analogs of aliphatic azoxides, were identified from two Streptomyces species by a reactivity-based screening that targets azoxy bonds. A biological activity evaluation demonstrated that the double bond in the alkyl side chain is important for the cytotoxicity of azodyrecins. An in vitro assay elucidated the tailoring step of azodyrecin biosynthesis, which is mediated by the S-adenosylmethionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferase Ady1. This study paves the way for the targeted isolation of aliphatic azoxy natural products through a genome-mining approach and further investigations of their biosynthetic mechanisms.

Abstract
A new maniwamycin analogue, maniwamycin G, was isolated from Streptomyces sp. TOHO-M025 as a major product. Maniwamycin G has a molecular formula of C12H22N2O4, and its extensive NMR analysis revealed that maniwamycin G contains a methoxycarbonyl group instead of an amide as found in maniwamycin F. Its C-2 and C-3 configurations were determined to be (2R, 3R) by circular dichroism spectrum and a modified Mosher method, respectively. The biosynthetic origin of maniwamycin G was investigated using isotope-labeled compounds. The carbon source of maniwamycin G is four acetate units (C-1', C-2'; C-3', C-4'; C-5', C-6'; and C-4, C-5) and l-serine (C-1 to C-3). The nitrogen atom attached at C-2 (Nα) originates from serine, whereas the nitrogen atom of a hexen-1-yl amine unit (Nβ) is derived from glutamic acid. The quorum-sensing inhibitory activity of maniwamycin G was 2-fold lower than that of maniwamycin F.

Streptomyces: Still the Biggest Producer of New Natural Secondary Metabolites, a Current Perspective. MICROBIOLOGY RESEARCH 2022. [DOI: 10.3390/microbiolres13030031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
There is a real consensus that new antibiotics are urgently needed and are the best chance for combating antibiotic resistance. The phylum Actinobacteria is one of the main producers of new antibiotics, with a recent paradigm shift whereby rare actinomycetes have been increasingly targeted as a source of new secondary metabolites for the discovery of new antibiotics. However, this review shows that the genus Streptomyces is still the largest current producer of new and innovative secondary metabolites. Between January 2015 and December 2020, a significantly high number of novel Streptomyces spp. have been isolated from different environments, including extreme environments, symbionts, terrestrial soils, sediments and also from marine environments, mainly from marine invertebrates and marine sediments. This review highlights 135 new species of Streptomyces during this 6-year period with 108 new species of Streptomyces from the terrestrial environment and 27 new species from marine sources. A brief summary of the different pre-treatment methods used for the successful isolation of some of the new species of Streptomyces is also discussed, as well as the biological activities of the isolated secondary metabolites. A total of 279 new secondary metabolites have been recorded from 121 species of Streptomyces which exhibit diverse biological activity. The greatest number of new secondary metabolites originated from the terrestrial-sourced Streptomyces spp.
