Abstract
Actinomycetes inhabit both terrestrial and marine ecosystems and are highly proficient in producing a wide range of natural products with diverse biological functions, including antitumor, immunosuppressive, antimicrobial, and antiviral activities. In this review, we delve into the life cycle, ecology, taxonomy, and classification of actinomycetes, as well as their varied bioactive metabolites recently discovered between 2015 and 2023. Additionally, we explore promising strategies to unveil and investigate new bioactive metabolites, encompassing genome mining, activation of silent genes through signal molecules, and co-cultivation approaches. By presenting this comprehensive and up-to-date review, we hope to offer a potential solution to uncover novel bioactive compounds with essential activities.

The Diversity of Deep-Sea Actinobacteria and Their Natural Products: An Epitome of Curiosity and Drug Discovery. DIVERSITY 2022.

Abstract
Bioprospecting of novel antibiotics has been the conventional norm of research fostered by researchers worldwide to combat drug resistance. With the exhaustion of incessant leads, the search for new chemical entities moves into uncharted territories such as the deep sea. The deep sea is a furthermost ecosystem with much untapped biodiversity thriving under extreme conditions. Accordingly, it also encompasses a vast pool of ancient natural products. Actinobacteria are frequently regarded as the bacteria of research interest due to their inherent antibiotic-producing capabilities. These interesting groups of bacteria occupy diverse ecological habitats including a multitude of different deep-sea habitats. In this review, we provide a recent update on the novel species and compounds of actinomycetes from the deep-sea environments within a period of 2016–2022. Within this period, a total of 24 new species of actinomycetes were discovered and characterized as well as 101 new compounds of various biological activities. The microbial communities of various deep-sea ecosystems are the emerging frontiers of bioprospecting.

Abstract
Two novel actinobacterial strains, designated MMS20-R2-23T and MMS20-R2-29T, were isolated from riverside soil and subjected to taxonomic characterization. Both strains were Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, non-motile and filamentous, and formed orange to strong orange-brown coloured colonies, which later turned black. Both strains grew optimally at mesophilic temperatures, neutral to slightly alkaline pH and in the absence of NaCl. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the two novel strains fell into phylogenetic clusters belonging to the genus
Micromonospora
. Strains MMS20-R2-23T and MMS20-R2-29T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to
Micromonospora phytophila
SG15T (99.3 %) and
Micromonospora humida
MMS20-R1-14T (99.4 %), respectively. Based on the comparative genome analysis, strain MMS20-R2-23T had the highest orthologous average nucleotide identity (orthoANI) value of 92.70 % with
Micromonospora matsumotoense
DSM 44100T, and MMS20-R2-29T shared 94.99 % with
Micromonospora wenchangensis
CCTCC AA 2012002T. Besides, the digital DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) values of MMS20-R2-23T and MMS20-R2-29T with the same species were 47.6 and 59.2% respectively, which were also highest among the compared species, thus confirming the separation of each strain at species level from related species. The orthoANI and dDDH values between MMS20-R2-23T and MMS20-R2-29T were 92.18 and 44.9% respectively. The genomes of strains MMS20-R2-23T and MMS20-R2-29T were estimated as 7.56 Mbp and 7.13 Mbp in size, and the DNA G+C contents were 72.5 and 72.9 mol%, respectively. The chemotaxonomic properties of both strains were consistent with those of the genus. The novel strains showed antimicrobial activity against a broad range of microbes, in particular Gram-positive bacteria and yeasts. It is evident that each of the isolated strains merits recognition as representing novel species of
Micromonospora
, for which the names Micromonospora antibiotica sp. nov. (type strain=MMS20-R2-23T=KCTC 49542T=JCM 34495T) and Micromonospora humidisoli sp. nov. (type strain=MMS20-R2-29T=KCTC 49543T=JCM 34496T) are proposed.

Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek 2021; 114:697-708. [PMID: 33666807 DOI: 10.1007/s10482-021-01550-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2020] [Accepted: 02/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
A novel actinobacterium, designated strain NEAU-HG-1T, was isolated from soil collected from Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, Northeast China and characterised using a polyphasic approach. On the basis of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain NEAU-HG-1T belonged to the genus Micromonospora, and shared high sequence similarities with Micromonospora auratinigra DSM 44815T (98.9%) and Micromonospora coerulea DSM 43143T (98.7%). Morphological and chemotaxonomic characteristics of the strain also supported its assignment to the genus Micromonospora. Cell wall contained meso-diaminopimelic acid and the whole-cell sugars were arabinose and xylose. The polar lipid contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, glycolipid and phosphatidylinositol. The predominant menaquinones were MK-10(H2), MK-10(H4) and MK-10(H6). The major fatty acids were C17:0 cycle, iso-C15:0, and iso-C16:0. Furthermore, strain NEAU-HG-1T displayed a DNA-DNA relatedness of 33.8 ± 2.2% with M. coerulea DSM 43143T. The level of digital DNA-DNA hybridization between strain NEAU-HG-1T and M. auratinigra DSM 44815T was 27.2% (24.8-29.7%). The value was well below the criteria for species delineation of 70% for dDDH. Whole-genome average nucleotide identity analyses result also indicated that the isolate should be assigned to a new species under the genus Micromonospora. Therefore, it is concluded that strain NEAU-HG-1T represents a novel species of the genus Micromonospora, for which the name Micromonospora rubida sp. nov. is proposed, with NEAU-HG-1T (= CGMCC 4.7479T = JCM 32386T) as the type strain.
