Abstract
Within the canonical repertoire of the amino acid involved in protein biogenesis, proline plays a unique role as an amino acid presenting a modified backbone rather than a side-chain. Chemical structures that mimic proline but introduce changes into its specific molecular features are defined as proline analogues. This review article summarizes the existing chemical, physicochemical, and biochemical knowledge about this peculiar family of structures. We group proline analogues from the following compounds: substituted prolines, unsaturated and fused structures, ring size homologues, heterocyclic, e.g., pseudoproline, and bridged proline-resembling structures. We overview (1) the occurrence of proline analogues in nature and their chemical synthesis, (2) physicochemical properties including ring conformation and cis/trans amide isomerization, (3) use in commercial drugs such as nirmatrelvir recently approved against COVID-19, (4) peptide and protein synthesis involving proline analogues, (5) specific opportunities created in peptide engineering, and (6) cases of protein engineering with the analogues. The review aims to provide a summary to anyone interested in using proline analogues in systems ranging from specific biochemical setups to complex biological systems.

Abstract
Three novel actinomycins, actimomycin S (1), neo-actinomycins C and D (2 and 3), and one new benzo[d]oxazole alkaloid (4) were isolated from the Streptomyces sp. strain S22, along with three known congeners F9 (5), X2 (6) and X0β (7) and 2-acetylamino-3-hydroxyl-4-methyl-benzoic acid methyl ester (8). The structures of the new products were elucidated by spectroscopic methods, and the absolute configuration of amino acid residues was determined by Marfey's analysis. Actinomycin S contains an aspartic acid (Asp) residue in the β-peptidolactone ring. This is the first report of an Asp residue within an actinomycin-type natural product. Notably, neo-actinomycins C and D feature a rare tetracyclic 5H-oxazolo[4,5-b]phenoxazine chromophore. Among these, neo-actinomycin D, with an unprecedented molecular formula, represents the highest molecular weight member in the actinomycin family. Actinomycins 1-3 exhibited antimicrobial activity against multiple resistant "ESKAPE" pathogens with MIC values ranging from 1.25 to 80.0 μg mL-1. In addition, 1-3 showed potent cytotoxic activities against the HepG2 liver carcinoma cell line with IC50 values of 0.10, 0.32, and 0.024 μM, respectively. Furthermore, 1 inhibited cell proliferation by inducing G0-G1 phase arrest in the cell cycle.

Metabolomics Tools Assisting Classic Screening Methods in Discovering New Antibiotics from Mangrove Actinomycetia in Leizhou Peninsula. Mar Drugs 2021; 19:md19120688. [PMID: 34940687 PMCID: PMC8707991 DOI: 10.3390/md19120688] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2021] [Revised: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Mangrove actinomycetia are considered one of the promising sources for discovering novel biologically active compounds. Traditional bioactivity- and/or taxonomy-based methods are inefficient and usually result in the re-discovery of known metabolites. Thus, improving selection efficiency among strain candidates is of interest especially in the early stage of the antibiotic discovery program. In this study, an integrated strategy of combining phylogenetic data and bioactivity tests with a metabolomics-based dereplication approach was applied to fast track the selection process. A total of 521 actinomycetial strains affiliated to 40 genera in 23 families were isolated from 13 different mangrove soil samples by the culture-dependent method. A total of 179 strains affiliated to 40 different genera with a unique colony morphology were selected to evaluate antibacterial activity against 12 indicator bacteria. Of the 179 tested isolates, 47 showed activities against at least one of the tested pathogens. Analysis of 23 out of 47 active isolates using UPLC-HRMS-PCA revealed six outliers. Further analysis using the OPLS-DA model identified five compounds from two outliers contributing to the bioactivity against drug-sensitive A. baumannii. Molecular networking was used to determine the relationship of significant metabolites in six outliers and to find their potentially new congeners. Finally, two Streptomyces strains (M22, H37) producing potentially new compounds were rapidly prioritized on the basis of their distinct chemistry profiles, dereplication results, and antibacterial activities, as well as taxonomical information. Two new trioxacarcins with keto-reduced trioxacarcinose B, gutingimycin B (16) and trioxacarcin G (20), together with known gutingimycin (12), were isolated from the scale-up fermentation broth of Streptomyces sp. M22. Our study demonstrated that metabolomics tools could greatly assist classic antibiotic discovery methods in strain prioritization to improve efficiency in discovering novel antibiotics from those highly productive and rich diversity ecosystems.

Abstract
Streptomyces smyrnaeus UKAQ_23, isolated from the mangrove-sediment, collected from Jubail,Saudi Arabia, exhibited substantial antimicrobial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), including non-MRSA Gram-positive test bacteria. The novel isolate, under laboratory-scale conditions, produced the highest yield (561.3 ± 0.3 mg/kg fermented agar) of antimicrobial compounds in modified ISP-4 agar at pH 6.5, temperature 35 °C, inoculum 5% v/w, agar 1.5% w/v, and an incubation period of 7 days. The two major compounds, K1 and K2, were isolated from fermented medium and identified as Actinomycin X2 and Actinomycin D, respectively, based on their structural analysis. The antimicrobial screening showed that Actinomycin X2 had the highest antimicrobial activity compared to Actinomycin D, and the actinomycins-mixture (X2:D, 1:1, w/w) against MRSA and non-MRSA Gram-positive test bacteria, at 5 µg/disc concentrations. The MIC of Actinomycin X2 ranged from 1.56-12.5 µg/ml for non-MRSA and 3.125-12.5 µg/ml for MRSA test bacteria. An in-silico molecular docking demonstrated isoleucyl tRNA synthetase as the most-favored antimicrobial protein target for both actinomycins, X2 and D, while the penicillin-binding protein-1a, was the least-favorable target-protein. In conclusion, Streptomyces smyrnaeus UKAQ_23 emerged as a promising source of Actinomycin X2 with the potential to be scaled up for industrial production, which could benefit the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
Two new nonribosomal peptides, bonnevillamides D and E (1 and 2), have been discovered in Streptomyces sp. UTZ13 isolated from the carrion beetle, Nicrophorus concolor. Combinational analysis of the UV, MS, and NMR spectroscopic data revealed that their planar structures were comprised of dichlorinated linear peptides containing nonproteinogenic amino acid residues, such as 4-methylazetidinecarboxylic acid and 4-O-acetyl-5-methylproline. The configurations of bonnevillamides D and E (1 and 2) were determined based on ROESY correlations, the advanced Marfey's method, phenylglycine methyl ester derivatization, molecular modeling, and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The nonribosomal peptide synthetase biosynthetic pathway of bonnevillamides D and E has been proposed using bioinformatic analysis of the whole-genome sequence data of Streptomyces sp. UTZ13. Their biological activity toward the aggregation of amyloid-β, which is one of the key pathogenic proteins in Alzheimer's disease, was evaluated using a thioflavin T assay and gel electrophoresis. Bonnevillamides D and E reversed the fibril formation by inducing the monomerization of amyloid-β aggregates.

Abstract
Interaction between the SARS-COV-2 (2019 novel coronavirus) spike protein and ACE2 receptors expressed on cellular surfaces initialises viral attachment and consequent infection. Blocking this interaction shows promise for blocking or ameliorating the virus' pathological effects on the body. By contrast to work focusing on the coronavirus, which has significant potential diversity through possible accumulation of mutations during transmission, targeting the conserved ACE2 protein expressed on human cells offers an attractive alternative route to developing pharmacological prophylactics against viral invasion. In this study, we screened a virtual database of natural peptides in silico, with ACE2 as the target, and performed structural analyses of the interface region in the SARS-COV-2 RBD/ACE2 complex. These analyses have identified 15 potentially effective compounds. Analyses of ACE2/polypeptide interactions suggest that these peptides can block viral invasion of cells by stably binding in the ACE2 active site pocket. Molecular simulation results for Complestatin and Valinomycin indicate that they may share this mechanism. The discovery of this probable binding mechanism provides a frame of reference for further optimization, and design of high affinity ACE2 inhibitors that could serve as leads for production of drugs with preventive and therapeutic effects against SARS-COV-2.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Actinomycin peptide synthetase genes constitute two oppositely oriented transcriptional units, acmADR, and acmBC, separated by a non-coding intergenic region. Gene constructs of the intergenic region together with its adjoining gene acmA or acmB from the actinomycin biosynthetic gene cluster of Streptomyces chrysomallus were transferred into Streptomyces lividans TK64. Each construct expressed the respective synthetase indicating divergent promoters. Primer extension revealed for both directions -10 and -35 boxes similar to σ70 -dependent promoters from Streptomyces and E. coli. No conspicuous regulatory sequences were detected. Accordingly, S. chrysomallus-grown in glucose-containing medium-produced the peptide synthetases AcmA and AcmB/C as well as actinomycin during logarithmic growth phase. Alignments with the corresponding intergenic region of the actinomycin biosynthetic gene cluster in Streptomyces antibioticus identified analogous -10 and -35 boxes of σ70 consensus sequence. However, in S. antibioticus-cultivated in the same conditions-AcmA and AcmB/C were at maximum activity in late log phase and actinomycin formation peaked in stationary phase. The different patterns of formation of actinomycin and its peptide synthetases encoded by the highly homologous actinomycin biosynthetic gene clusters in S. chrysomallus and S. antibioticus suggest strain-specific control of biosynthesis in agreement with absence of pathway-specific regulatory genes.

Abstract
Actinomycin Z6 (1), a new member of the actinomycin family, along with three congeners of the Z-type (Z1, Z3, Z5) actinomycins, are produced from Streptomyces sp. KIB-H714. Their structures were authenticated by comprehensive spectroscopic data interpretation. Different from all the reported Z-type actinomycins, the β-ring of the new compound actinomycin Z6 includes an additional ring linked between the actinoyl chromophore and β-peptidolactone. In Z3 and Z5, the L-threonine in β-depsipeptide is replaced by the unusual 4-chlorothreonine, an amino acid rarely found in actinomycin family. All isolates were evaluated for cytotoxicity against five human tumor cell lines and for inhibitory activity against Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus.

Abstract
X-type actinomycins (Acms) contain 4-hydroxyproline (Acm X0 ) or 4-oxoproline (Acm X2 ) in their β-pentapeptide lactone rings, whereas their α ring contains proline. We demonstrate that these Acms are formed through asymmetric condensation of Acm half molecules (Acm halves) containing proline with 4-hydroxyproline- or 4-oxoproline-containing Acm halves. In turn, we show-using an artificial Acm half analogue (PPL 1) with proline in its peptide chain-their conversion into the 4-hydroxyproline- and 4-oxoproline-containing Acm halves, PPL 0 and PPL 2, in mycelial suspensions of Streptomyces antibioticus. Two responsible genes of the Acm X biosynthetic gene cluster of S. antibioticus, saacmM and saacmN, encoding a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (Cyp) and a ferredoxin were identified. After coexpression in Escherichia coli, their gene products converted PPL 1 into PPL 0 and PPL 2 in vivo as well as in situ in permeabilized cell of the transformed E. coli strain in conjunction with the host-encoded ferredoxin reductase in a NADH (NADPH)-dependent manner. saAcmM has high sequence similarity to the Cyp107Z (Ema) family of Cyps, which can convert avermectin B1 into its keto derivative, 4''-oxoavermectin B1. Determination of the structure of saAcmM reveals high similarity to the Ema structure but with significant differences in residues decorating their active sites, which defines saAcmM and its orthologues as a distinct new family of peptidylprolineketonizing Cyp.

Abstract
We determined the crystal structure of Thr1, the self-standing adenylation domain involved in the nonribosomal-like biosynthesis of free 4-chlorothreonine in Streptomyces sp. OH-5093. Thr1 shows two monomers in the crystallographic asymmetric unit with different relative orientations of the C- and N-terminal subdomains both in the presence of substrates and in the unliganded form. Cocrystallization with substrates, adenosine 5'-triphosphate and l-threonine, yielded one monomer containing the two substrates and the other in complex with l-threonine adenylate, locked in a postadenylation state. Steady-state kinetics showed that Thr1 activates l-Thr and its stereoisomers, as well as d-Ala, l- and d-Ser, albeit with lower efficiency. Modeling of these substrates in the active site highlighted the molecular bases of substrate discrimination. This work provides the first crystal structure of a threonine-activating adenylation enzyme, a contribution to the studies on conformational rearrangement in adenylation domains and on substrate recognition in nonribosomal biosynthesis. DATABASE Structural data are available in the Protein Data Bank under the accession number 5N9W and 5N9X.

Abstract
In the process of profiling the secondary metabolites of actinobacteria isolated from the Saudi coastal habitats for production of antibiotics and anti-cancer drugs, the cultures of strain WH1 that was identified as Streptomyces heliomycini exhibited strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. By means of MS and NMR techniques, the active compounds were characterized as actinomycins X0β, X2, and D, respectively. The research on the productivity of this strain for actinomycins revealed that the highest production of actinomycins X0β, X2, and D was reached in the medium MII within 5% salinity and pH 8.5. In this optimized condition, the fermentation titers of actinomycins X0β, X2, and D were 107.6 ± 4.2, 283.4 ± 75.3, and 458.0 ± 76.3 mg/L, respectively. All the three actinomycins X0β, X2, and D showed potent cytotoxicities against the MCF-7, K562, and A549 tumor cell lines, in which actinomycin X2 was the most active against the three tumor cell lines with the IC50 values of 0.8-1.8 nM. Both actinomycins X2 and D showed potent antibacterial activities against S. aureus and the methicillin-resistant S. aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and B. cereus and the actinomycin X2 was more potent.

Abstract
Neo-actinomycins A and B (1 and 2), two new natural actinomycins featuring an unprecedented tetracyclic 5H-oxazolo[4,5-b]phenoxazine chromophore, were isolated from the marine-derived actinomycete Streptomyces sp. IMB094. Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analyses. The presence of this ring system was proposed to originate from a condensation between actinomycin D (3) with α-ketoglutarate and pyruvate, respectively. Compound 1 showed potent cytotoxic activities against human cancer HCT116 and A549 cell lines in the nanomolar range (IC50: 38.7 and 65.8 nM, respectively) and moderate antibacterial activities against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE) strains.

Abstract
Four new Y-type actinomycin analogues named Y6-Y9 (1-4) were isolated and characterized from the scale-up fermentation of the Streptomyces sp. strain Gö-GS12, as well as actinomycin Zp (5), which was, for the first time, isolated as a natural product. Structures of the new compounds were elucidated by the cumulative analyses of NMR spectroscopy and HRMS. The 4-hydroxythreonine on the β-ring of 1 uniquely undergoes both a rearrangement by a 2-fold acyl shift and an additional ring closure with the amino group of the phenoxazinone chromophore, and the α-rings of 4 and 5 contain a rare 5-methyl proline. Compounds 2-5 showed potent antibacterial activities against Gram-positive bacteria that correlated with cytotoxicity against representative human cell lines. The combination of a β-ring rearrangement and additional ring closure in 1 rendered this actinomycin significantly less potent relative to the nonrearranged comparator actinomycin Y5 and other actinomycins.

Abstract
An extensive study of actinomycins was performed using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Actinomycins represent a well-known family of peptidolactone chromopeptides with potent cytostatic and antibiotic properties. Using five well-characterized streptomycete strains, we introduced MALDI-TOF MS as an efficient technique for rapid in situ detection of actinomycins in surface extracts of cells picked from agar plates. By this procedure, actinomycin complexes can be investigated with high sensitivity and accuracy in a minimum of time. These studies were complemented by mass spectrometric investigation of actinomycins obtained from culture filtrate extracts and purified by high-performance liquid chromatography to detect yet unknown actinomycin species. By feeding experiments, C-demethyl-actinomycins from Streptomyces chrysomallus and Streptomyces parvulus as well as hemi-actinomycins from Streptomyces antibioticus lacking one of the two pentapeptide lactone rings were isolated and characterized as novel variants for structure-activity relationship studies. Structural characterization of the investigated actinomycins was performed by post source decay MALDI-TOF MS. The specific features of the fragmentation patterns of the protonated and cationized forms of selected actinomycins were investigated in detail.

Abstract
In the course of our screening program for anti-Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB H37Rv) agents from our marine natural product library, a newly isolated actinomycete strain, designated as MS449, was picked out for further investigation. The strain MS449, isolated from a sediment sample collected from South China Sea, produced actinomycin X(2) and actinomycin D in substantial quantities, which showed strong inhibition of BCG and MTB H37Rv. The structures of actinomycins were elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometric analysis. The strain MS449 was taxonomically characterized on the basis of morphological and phenotypic characteristics, genotypic data, and phylogenetic analysis. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the strain was determined and a database search indicated that the strain was closely associated with the type strain of Streptomyces avermitilis (99.7 % 16S rRNA gene similarity). S. avermitilis has not been previously reported to produce actinomycins. The marine-derived strain of Streptomyces sp. MS449 produced notably higher quantities of actinomycin X(2) (1.92 mg/ml) and actinomycin D (1.77 mg/ml) than previously reported actinomycins producing strains. Thus, MS449 was considered of great potential as a new industrial producing strain of actinomycin X(2) and actinomycin D.

Abstract
Artificial neural network (ANN) and genetic algorithm (GA) were applied to optimize the medium components for the production of actinomycin V from a newly isolated strain of Streptomyces triostinicus which is not reported to produce this class of antibiotics. Experiments were conducted using the central composite design (CCD), and the data generated was used to build an artificial neural network model. The concentrations of five medium components (MgSO(4), NaCl, glucose, soybean meal and CaCO(3)) served as inputs to the neural network model, and the antibiotic yield served as outputs of the model. Using the genetic algorithm, the input space of the neural network model was optimized to find out the optimum values for maximum antibiotic yield. Maximum antibiotic yield of 452.0 mg l(-1) was obtained at the GA-optimized concentrations of medium components (MgSO(4) 3.657; NaCl 1.9012; glucose 8.836; soybean meal 20.1976 and CaCO(3) 13.0842 gl(-1)). The antibiotic yield obtained by the ANN/GA was 36.7% higher than the yield obtained with the response surface methodology (RSM).

Abstract
Streptomyces sp. strain Gö-GS12 was found to produce five novel actinomycins Y(1)-Y(5) (). Their amino acid pattern discloses them as members of a new family of this important class of antibiotics. Compounds differ from Z-type actinomycins in their beta-peptidolactone rings which here contain trans-4-hydroxyproline (Hyp) or 4-oxoproline (OPro) amino acids, and from the X-congeners by containing methylalanine (MeAla). Within the new Y-type actinomycins variations are not only in the rare chlorinated or hydroxylated threonine residue. Furthermore, the beta-ring can undergo rearrangement by a two-fold acyl shift (compounds and ) or show a unique additional ring closure with the chromophore (compound ), resulting in metabolites with yet unknown structural motifs, altered conformations and distinct bioactivities. The strongest bioactivity was found for the chlorine containing actinomycin Y(1) (), the most surprising for Y(5) () with cytotoxic and antibacterial effects losing their coherence, which has been observed for the first time here.

Abstract
Five new members of the actinomycin family, actinomycins G2-G6 (2-6), are produced by Streptomyces iakyrus strain DSM 41873. Their structures were established by spectroscopic methods. Unlike actinomycin D (1), the alpha-ring of the novel compounds contains the unusual amino acid 3-hydroxy-5-methylproline, while the beta-ring includes N-methylalanine and either a chlorinated or hydroxylated threonine moiety. The chlorine-containing actinomycin G2 (2) is the main product; it exhibits strong cytotoxic and antibacterial activities. Actinomycin G5 (5) is the first actinomycin with an additional ring closure between the beta-peptidolactone and the actinoyl chromophore. Actinomycin G6 (6) resulted from the 4-hydroxythreonine-containing actinomycin G3 (3) by a 2-fold acyl shift of the beta-unit, which has not been observed before for this class of chromopeptides. The structural modification of compounds 5 and 6 goes along with an evident reduction of the biological activity. The biosynthesis of aniso-actinomycins is discussed.

Abstract
Organofluorine compounds are rare in Nature, with only a handful known to be produced by some species of plant and two microorganisms. Consequently, the mechanism of enzymatic carbon-fluorine bond formation is poorly understood. The bacterium Streptomyces cattleya biosynthesises fluoroacetate and 4-fluorothreonine as secondary metabolites and is a convenient system to study the biosynthesis and enzymology of fluorometabolite production. Using stable-isotope labelled precursors it has been shown that there is a common intermediate in the biosynthesis of the fluorometabolites, which has recently been identified as fluoroacetaldehyde. Studies with cell-free extracts of S. cattleya have identified two enzymes, an aldehyde dehydrogenase and a threonine transaldolase, that are involved in the biotransformation of fluoroacetaldehyde to fluoroacetate and 4-fluorothreonine.
