Bioactive Insecticides from Chemometric Diverse Ant-Associated Symbionts Streptomyces novaecaesareae and Streptomyces nojiriensis against the Fall Armyworm Larvae. INSECTS 2024; 15:707. [PMID: 39336675 PMCID: PMC11431979 DOI: 10.3390/insects15090707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2024] [Revised: 08/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/16/2024] [Indexed: 09/30/2024]
Abstract
The Streptomyces genus has long been recognized as a prolific and valuable source of diverse secondary metabolites. These metabolites contribute significantly to the intricate chemical diversity exhibited by Streptomyces, making them an indispensable reservoir for drug discovery, agricultural applications, and industrial processes. Exploiting the potential of these natural compounds holds the promise of ushering in a new era in insect pest management, reducing reliance on synthetic chemicals and fostering ecologically sustainable solutions. This study dives into the realm of chemo diversity within isolates of Streptomyces nojiriensis and Streptomyces novaecaesareae, with a specific focus on the production of insecticidal compounds. We explored chromatographic techniques for the identification and isolation of insecticidal compounds, and two bioactive compounds were identified in extracts of S. novaecaesareae. Valinomycin was identified from hexanic extracts of strain Asp59, while naphthomycin from ethyl acetate extracts of strain Asp58. These compounds showed insecticidal activity against first instars of Spodoptera frugiperda (Asp59: LC50 = 10.82 µg/µL, LC90 = 26.25 µg/µL; Asp58: LC50 = 15.05 µg/µL, LC90 = 38.84 µg/µL). Notably, this is the first report of naphthomycin as an insecticidal compound. The present study suggests that valinomycin and naphthomycin may be a novel biological source for the control of Spodoptera frugiperda in early stages.

Eur J Med Chem 2024; 279:116840. [PMID: 39244863 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2024.116840] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/22/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/24/2024] [Indexed: 09/10/2024]
Abstract
Pseudoalteromonas is a genus of marine bacteria and a promising source of natural products with antibacterial, antifungal, and antifouling bioactivities. To accelerate the exploration of new compounds from this genus, we applied the gene-first approach to study 632 public Pseudoalteromonas genomes. We identified 3968 biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) involved in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites and classified them into 995 gene cluster families (GCFs). Surprisingly, only 9 GCFs (0.9 %) included an experimentally identified reference biosynthetic gene cluster from the Minimum Information about a Biosynthetic Gene cluster database (MIBiG), suggesting a striking novelty of secondary metabolites in Pseudoalteromonas. Bioinformatic analysis of the biosynthetic diversity encoded in the identified BGCs uncovered six dominant species of this genus, P. citrea, P. flavipulchra, P. luteoviolacea, P. maricaloris, P. piscicida, and P. rubra, that encoded more than 17 BGCs on average. Moreover, each species exhibited a species-specific distribution of BGC. However, a deep analysis revealed two BGCs conserved across five of the six dominant species. These BGCS encoded an unknown lanthipeptide and the siderophore myxochelin B implying an essential role of antibiotics for Pseudoalteromonas. We chemically profiled 11 strains from the 6 dominant species and identified four new antibiotics, korormicins L-O (1-4), from P. citrea WJX-3. Our results highlight the unexplored biosynthetic potential for bioactive compounds in Pseudoalteromonas and provide an important guideline for targeting exploration.

Abstract
Natural products play a crucial role in drug development, addressing the escalating microbial resistance to antibiotics and the treatment of emerging diseases. Progress in genome sequencing techniques, coupled with the development of bioinformatics tools and the exploration of uncharted habitats, has highlighted the biosynthetic potential of actinomycetes. By in silico screening for diazo-related gene genomes from twelve Streptomyces strains isolated from Attini leaf-cutting ants, the new crx biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) was identified in Streptomyces sp. CS057. This cluster, highly conserved in several Streptomyces strains, contains genes related to diazo group formation and genes for the biosynthesis of 3,4-AHBA. By overexpressing the LuxR-like regulatory gene crxR1, we were able to activate the crx cluster, which encodes the biosynthesis of three 3,4-AHBA-derived compounds that we named crexazones (CRXs). The chemical structure of crexazones (CRXs) was determined by LC-DAD-HRMS-based dereplication and NMR spectroscopic analyses and was found to correspond to two known compounds, 3-acetamido-4-hydroxybenzoic acid (CRX1) and the phenoxazinone texazone (CRX3), and a novel 3,4-AHBA-containing compound herein designated as CRX2. Experimental proof linking the crx BGC to their encoded compounds was achieved by generating mutants in selected crx genes.

Abstract
Pollution by active ingredients is one of the most significant and widespread forms of pollution on Earth. Medicines can have a negative impact on ecosystems, and contamination can have unpredictable consequences. An urgent and unexplored task is to study the Lake Baikal ecosystem and its organisms for the presence of trace concentrations of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Our study aimed to conduct a qualitative analysis of active pharmaceutical ingredients, and quantitative analysis of ibuprofen in endemic amphipods of Lake Baikal, using methods of high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS). Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), ibuprofen, acetaminophen, azithromycin, dimetridazole, metronidazole, amikacin, spiramycin, and some tetracycline antibiotics were detected in the studied littoral amphipods. We also detected different annual loads of active pharmaceutical ingredients on amphipods. Using the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode mentioned in GOST International Technical Standards, we detected molecules, fragmented as amikacin, chlortetracycline, doxycycline, oxytetracycline, dimetridazole, metronidazole and spiramycin. Thus, we first revealed that invertebrates of Lake Baikal can uptake pharmaceutical contaminants in the environment.

Mol Divers 2024:10.1007/s11030-024-10932-7.

Abstract
Nipah Virus is a re-emerging zoonotic paramyxovirus that poses a significant threat to both swine industry and human health. The pursuit of potential antiviral agents with both preventive and therapeutic properties holds promise for targeting such viruses. To expedite this search, leveraging computational biology is essential. Streptomyces is renowned for its capacity to produce large and diverse metabolites with promising bioactivities. In the current study, we conducted a comprehensive structure-based virtual screening of 6524 Streptomyces spp. metabolites sourced from the StreptomeDB database to evaluate their potential inhibitory effects on three Nipah virus fusion (NiVF) protein conformations: NiVF pre-fusion 1-mer (NiVF-1mer), pre-fusion 3-mer (NiVF-3mer), and NiVF post-fusion (NiVF-PoF). Prior to virtual screening, the drug-likeness of Streptomyces spp. compounds was profiled using ADMET properties. From the 913 ADMET-filtered compounds, the subsequent targeted and confirmatory blind docking analysis revealed that S896 or virginiamycin M1, a known macrolide antibiotic, showed a maximum binding affinity with the NiVF proteins, suggesting a multi-targeting inhibitory property. In addition, the 200-ns molecular dynamics simulation and MM/PBSA analyses revealed stable and strong binding affinity between the NiVF-S896 complexes, indicating favorable interactions between S896 and the target proteins. These findings suggest the potential of virginiamycin M1, an antibiotic, as a promising multi-targeting antiviral drug. However, in vitro and in vivo experimental validations are necessary to assess their safety and efficacy.

Abstract
Streptomyces is the largest source of microbial antibiotics with about 50 % of marketed antimicrobial drugs originating from this genus. Endophytic streptomyces are the link between medicinal plants and the microbial world. Endophytic Streptomyces in edible plants were not targeted before despite their uniqueness and importance. In this review, we analyzed the chemical diversity of more than 150 compounds belonging to endophytic Streptomyces chemical classes such as alkaloids, polyketides, peptides, macrolides and terpenes and their biological activities. This analysis showed a dominant antimicrobial effect for most of the isolated compounds and highlighted an underestimated diversity to be studied or repurposed for other biological activities. Return to edible plants use and conducting toxicity studies to rationalize their nutraceutical potential based on their beneficial endophytes is urged. Although there are many studies for non-vertebrates, the nutraceutical potential of these plants is expected to improve the gut microbiota since they are enriched with bioactive compounds from streptomyces species. This is the first review to discuss edible plants associated streptomyces, and we prospect that many studies will follow to unravel the mysterious health benefits of streptomyces in the human microbiome and encourage the revival of a correct lifestyle for the sake of a healthier microbiome.

Abstract
Two endophytic actinobacteria, strains MK5T and MK7, were isolated from the surface-sterilized root of Jasmine rice (Oryza sativa KDML 105). These strains were aerobic actinobacteria with a well-developed substrate and aerial mycelia that formed spiral spore chains. The type strains that shared the high 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with both strains were Streptomyces naganishii NBRC 12892T (99.4%), "Streptomyces griseicoloratus" TRM S81-3T (99.2%), and Streptomyces spiralis NBRC 14215T (98.9%). Strains MK5T and MK7 are the same species sharing a digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) value of 95.3% and a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 100%. Chemotaxonomic data confirmed the affiliation of strains MK5T and MK7 to the genus Streptomyces. Strains MK5T and MK7 contained MK-9(H4) as a major menaquinone; the whole-cell sugar of both strains was galactose and glucose. The strain MK5T shared 93.4% average nucleotide identity (ANI)-Blast, 95.5% ANI-MUMmer, 93% average amino acid identity, and 61.3% dDDH with S. spiralis NBRC 14215T. The polyphasic approach confirmed that strain MK5T represents a novel species, and the name Streptomyces mahasarakhamensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MK5T (= TBRC 17754 = NRRL B-65683). Genome mining, using an in silico approach and searching biosynthesis gene clusters of strains MK5T and MK7, revealed that the genomes contained genes encoding proteins relating to plant growth promotion, bioactive compounds, and beneficial enzymes. Strains MK5T and MK7 could produce indole acetic acid and solubilize phosphate in vitro.

[PMID: 38740103 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2024.105844] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2023] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/08/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
Streptomycin (STR) is an aminoglycoside antibiotic with a broad-spectrum of activity and ototoxic potential. The mechanism of STR-induced inner ear damage has not been fully elucidated. It was previously found that STR binds to melanin, which may result in the accumulation of the drug in melanin-containing tissues. Melanin pigment is present in various parts of the inner ear, including the cochlea and vestibular organ. The present study aimed to assess if streptomycin generates oxidative stress and affects melanogenesis in normal human melanocytes. Moreover the variation of free radical concentration in STR-treated melanocytes was examined by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR). We found that STR decreases cell metabolic activity and reduces melanin content. The observed changes in the activity of antioxidant enzymes activity in HEMn-DPs treated with streptomycin may suggest that the drug affects redox homeostasis in melanocytes. In this work EPR study expanded knowledge about free radicals in interactions of STR and melanin in melanocytes. The results may help elucidate the mechanisms of STR toxicity on pigment cells, including melanin-producing cells in the inner ear. This is important because understanding the mechanism of STR-induced ototoxicity would be helpful in developing new therapeutic strategies to protect patients' hearing.

Abstract
The menace of microbial resistance and re-emerging disease is still a problem for healthcare givers globally, and the need for newer sources of potent antibiotics has become paramount. This study investigated the antimicrobial and antiulcer activities of Streptomyces isolate SOM013. Streptomyces isolates were cultivated and purified following standard microbiological protocols. Secondary metabolites were recovered and characterized from Streptomyces isolate SOM013 via broth fermentation and extraction. Varying concentrations (0.5 mg/mL, 0.025 mg/mL and 0.0125 mg/mL) of the SOM013 extract were used for antimicrobial screening against resistant bacteria and medically important fungi (methicillin-resistant Escherichia coli, Oxacillin resistant Helicobacter pylori, Shigella spp, extended broad-spectrum resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Streptococcus spp, Campylobacter spp, Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, and Aspergillus flavus). The antiulcer activity of the SOM013 was also examined in a methanol-induced gastric ulcer animal model. A total of 23 Streptomyces spp were recovered from the study. Methanolic extract of the SOM013 isolates was more potent across the clinical test microorganisms compared to water extract. The antimicrobial activity was dose dependent, with methanolic extract at 0.05 g/mL displaying the highest zone of inhibition (18.8 ± 0.3 mm) when tested against extended broad-spectrum resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Further, the extract's ulcer index and protection efficacy were significant as the concentration increased (P < 0.01). SOM013 isolate has a moderate antimicrobial and high antiulcer activity worthy of pharmacological exploration.

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
Actinomycetes, a diverse group of bacteria with filamentous growth characteristics, have long captivated researchers and biochemists for their prolific production of secondary metabolites. Among the myriad roles played by actinomycete secondary metabolites, their historical significance in the field of biocontrol stands out prominently. The fascinating journey begins with the discovery of antibiotics, where renowned compounds like streptomycin, tetracycline, and erythromycin revolutionized medicine and agriculture. The history of biocontrol traces its roots back to the early twentieth century, when scientists recognized the potential of naturally occurring agents to combat pests and diseases. The emergence of synthetic pesticides in the mid-twentieth century temporarily overshadowed interest in biocontrol. However, with growing environmental concerns and the realization of the negative ecological impacts of chemical pesticides, the pendulum swung back towards exploring sustainable alternatives. Beyond their historical role as antibiotics, actinomycete-produced secondary metabolites encompass a rich repertoire with biopesticide potential. The classification of these compounds based on chemical structure and mode of action is highlighted, demonstrating their versatility against both plant pathogens and insect pests. Additionally, this review provides in-depth insights into how endophytic actinomycete strains play a pivotal role in biocontrol strategies. Case studies elucidate their effectiveness in inhibiting Spodoptera spp. and nematodes through the production of bioactive compounds. By unraveling the multifunctional roles of endophytic actinomycetes, this review contributes compelling narrative knowledge to the field of sustainable agriculture, emphasizing the potential of these microbial allies in crafting effective, environmentally friendly biocontrol strategies for combating agricultural pests.

Optimized submerged batch fermentation for metabolic switching in Streptomyces yanglinensis 3-10 providing platform for reveromycin A and B biosynthesis, engineering, and production. Front Microbiol 2024; 15:1378834. [PMID: 38784807 PMCID: PMC11112568 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2024.1378834] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
The cultivation system requires that the approach providing biomass for all types of metabolic analysis is of excellent quality and reliability. This study was conducted to enhance the efficiency and yield of antifungal substance (AFS) production in Streptomyces yanglinensis 3-10 by optimizing operation conditions of aeration, agitation, carbon source, and incubation time in a fermenter. Dissolved oxygen (DO) and pH were found to play significant roles in AFS production. The optimum pH for the production of AFS in S. yanglinensis 3-10 was found to be 6.5. As the AFS synthesis is generally thought to be an aerobic process, DO plays a significant role. The synthesis of bioactive compounds can vary depending on how DO affects growth rate. This study validates that the high growth rate and antifungal activity required a minimum DO concentration of approximately 20% saturation. The DO supply in a fermenter can be raised once agitation and aeration have been adjusted. Consequently, DO can stimulate the development of bacteria and enzyme production. A large shearing effect could result from the extreme agitation, harming the cell and deactivating its products. The highest inhibition zone diameter (IZD) was obtained with 3% starch, making starch a more efficient carbon source than glucose. Temperature is another important factor affecting AFS production. The needed fermentation time would increase and AFS production would be reduced by the too-low operating temperature. Furthermore, large-scale fermenters are challenging to manage at temperatures that are far below from room temperature. According to this research, 28°C is the ideal temperature for the fermentation of S. yanglinensis 3-10. The current study deals with the optimization of submerged batch fermentation involving the modification of operation conditions to effectively enhance the efficiency and yield of AFS production in S. yanglinensis 3-10.

Abstract
Using the unique structures found in natural materials to produce new antibacterial drugs is crucial. Actinobacteria is well-known for its ability to produce naturally occurring chemicals with a variety of structural features that can be used as weapons against infectious bacteria. In the present study, the Streptomyces coeruleorubidus metabolites were characterized and their efficacy in suppressing Streptococcus agalactiae growth was carried out both in vitro and in vivo. The metabolites of S. coeruleorubidus were purified and identified as octasiloxane-hexadecamethyl (OHM). In vivo antibacterial activity of OHM revealed an inhibitory minimum concentration value of 0.5 μg/ml against S. agalactiae and induced ultrastructural cell changes revealed by scanning electron microscope. The safe concentration of OHM was determined as 0.8 mg/L for Nile tilapia. Four in vivo treatments were treated with 0 and 0.8 mg/L OHM and with or without challenge by S. agalactiae (1 × 107 CFU/mL) named control, OHM, S. agalactiae, and S. agalactiae + OHM groups. The OHM treatment improved the survival of Nile tilapia by 33.33% than S. agalactiae challenge group. Waterborne OHM treatment significantly mitigated the deleterious effects of S. agalactiae on hematological, hepato-renal functions, stress indicators, and antioxidant balance. OHM significantly alleviated nitric oxide levels, complement 3, IgM, and lysozyme activity, downregulation of liver antioxidant genes expression in S. agalactiae group. Furthermore, the addition of OHM to challenged fish with S. agalactiae-significantly reversed dramatic negative regulation of inflammatory, apoptosis, and immune related gene expression (caspase-3, bax, pcna, tnf-α, ifn-γ, il-8 il-1β, il-10, tgf-β, and bcl-2 in the Nile tilapia spleen. Additionally, the damaged hepatic and splenic structure induced by bacterial infection was restored with OHM treatment. Finally, S. coeruleorubidus metabolites (mainly OHM) revealed in vitro and in vivo antibacterial activity and showed alleviated effects on the physiological status of S. agalactiae infected tilapia.

Abstract
Streptomyces are prolific producers of secondary metabolites from which many clinically useful compounds have been derived. They inhabit diverse habitats but have rarely been reported in vertebrates. Here, we aim to determine to what extent the ecological source (bat host species and cave sites) influence the genomic and biosynthetic diversity of Streptomyces bacteria. We analysed draft genomes of 132 Streptomyces isolates sampled from 11 species of insectivorous bats from six cave sites in Arizona and New Mexico, USA. We delineated 55 species based on the genome-wide average nucleotide identity and core genome phylogenetic tree. Streptomyces isolates that colonize the same bat species or inhabit the same site exhibit greater overall genomic similarity than they do with Streptomyces from other bat species or sites. However, when considering biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) alone, BGC distribution is not structured by the ecological or geographical source of the Streptomyces that carry them. Each genome carried between 19-65 BGCs (median=42.5) and varied even among members of the same Streptomyces species. Nine major classes of BGCs were detected in ten of the 11 bat species and in all sites: terpene, non-ribosomal peptide synthetase, polyketide synthase, siderophore, RiPP-like, butyrolactone, lanthipeptide, ectoine, melanin. Finally, Streptomyces genomes carry multiple hybrid BGCs consisting of signature domains from two to seven distinct BGC classes. Taken together, our results bring critical insights to understanding Streptomyces-bat ecology and BGC diversity that may contribute to bat health and in augmenting current efforts in natural product discovery, especially from underexplored or overlooked environments.

Abstract
Biological control has been considered a sustainable alternative to combat phytopathogens. The increase of studies in the past few years involving Actinobacteria as biological control agents of phytopathogenic fungi has motivated us to search for which Actinobacteria genus that have been studied in the last five years and explore their mechanisms of antifungal activity. The accesses were carried out on three multidisciplinary digital platforms: PubMED/MedLine, Web of Science and Scopus. Actinobacteria from genus Amycolatopsis, Curtobacterium, Kocuria, Nocardioides, Nocardiopsis, Saccharopolyspora, Streptoverticillium and especially Streptomyces showed a broad antifungal spectrum through several antibiosis mechanisms such as the production of natural antifungal compounds, siderophores, extracellular hydrolytic enzymes and activation of plant defense system. We observed the formation of a methodology based on antagonistic compounds bioactivity to select efficient Actinobacteria to be used as biological control agents against phytopathogenic fungi. The use of multifunctional Actinobacteria has been proven to be efficient, not only by its natural protective activity against phytopathogenic fungi but also because of their ability to act as plant growth-promoting bacteria.

Abstract
Enterococci are ubiquitous microorganisms in almost all environments, from the soil we step on to the food we eat. They are frequently found in naturally fermented foods, contributing to ripening through protein, lipid, and sugar metabolism. On the other hand, these organisms are also leading the current antibiotic resistance crisis. In this study, we performed whole-genome sequencing and comparative genomics of an Enterococcus faecium strain isolated from an artisanal Mexican Cotija cheese, namely QD-2. We found clear genomic differences between commensal and pathogenic strains, particularly in their carbohydrate metabolic pathways, resistance to vancomycin and other antibiotics, bacteriocin production, and bacteriophage and CRISPR content. Furthermore, a bacteriocin transcription analysis performed by RT-qPCR revealed that, at the end of the log phase, besides enterocins A and X, two putative bacteriocins not reported previously are also transcribed as a bicistronic operon in E. faecium QD-2, and are expressed 1.5 times higher than enterocin A when cultured in MRS broth.

[PMID: 38336871 PMCID: PMC10858231 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-53801-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Research on microorganisms in various biotopes is required to identify new, natural potent molecules. These molecules are essential to control the development of multi-drug resistance (MDR). In the present study, a Streptomyces sp., namely SCJ, was isolated from a soil sample collected from a Moroccan garden. SCJ isolate was identified on the basis of a polyphasic approach, which included cultural, micro-morphological, biochemical, and physiological characteristics. The sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of the SCJ strain showed 99.78% similarity to strains of Streptomyces coeruleofuscus YR-T (KY753282.1). The preliminary screening indicated that the SCJ isolate exhibited activity against Candida albicans ATCC 60,193, Escherichia coli ATCC 25,922, Staphylococcus aureus CECT 976, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25,923, Bacillus cereus ATCC 14,579, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27,853, as well as various other clinical MDR bacteria and five phytopathogenic fungi. The ethyl acetate extract of the isolated strain demonstrated highly significant (p < 0.05) antimicrobial activity against multi-resistant bacteria and phytopathogenic fungi. The absorption spectral analysis of the ethyl acetate extract of the SCJ isolate obtained showed no absorption peaks characteristic of polyene molecules. Moreover, no hemolytic activity against erythrocytes was observed in this extract. GC-MS analysis of the ethyl acetate extract of the SCJ isolate revealed the presence of 9 volatile compounds including 3,5-Dimethylpyrazole, and pyrrolizidine derivatives (Pyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine 1,4-dione, hexahydro-3-(2-methylpropyl)), which could potentially explain the antimicrobial activity demonstrated in this study.

Abstract
Streptomyces spp. are considered excellent reservoirs of natural bioactive compounds. The study evaluated the bioactive potential of secondary metabolites from Streptomyces sp. strain 130 through PKS-I and NRPS gene-clusters screening. GC-MS analysis was done for metabolic profiling of bioactive compounds from strain 130 in the next set of experiments. Identified antifungal compounds underwent ADMET analyses to screen their toxicity. All compounds' molecular docking was done with the structural gene products of the aflatoxin biosynthetic pathway of Aspergillus flavus. MD simulations were utilized to evaluate the stability of protein-ligand complexes under physiological conditions. Based on the in-silico studies, compound 2,4-di-tert butyl-phenol (DTBP) was selected for in-vitro studies against Aspergillus flavus. Simultaneously, bioactive compounds were extracted from strain 130 in two different solvents (ethyl-acetate and methanol) and used for similar assays. The MIC value of DTBP was found to be 314 µg/mL, whereas in ethyl-acetate extract and methanol-extract, it was 250 and 350 µg/mL, respectively. A mycelium growth assay was done to analyze the effect of compounds/extracts on the mycelium formation of Aspergillus flavus. In agar diffusion assay, zone of inhibitions in DTBP, ethyl-acetate extract, and methanol extract were observed with diameters of 11.3, 13.3, and 7.6 mm, respectively. In the growth curve assay, treated samples have delayed the growth of fungi, which signified that the compounds have a fungistatic nature. Spot assay has determined the fungal sensitivity to a sub-minimum inhibitory concentration of antifungal compounds. The study's results suggested that DTBP can be exploited for antifungal-drug development.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Strain KC13T, a novel desert-adapted, non-motile, Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterium, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the Karakum Desert, Turkmenistan and characterised by a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA sequences revealed that strain KC13T was a member of the genus Nocardioides, and formed a distinct cluster with Nocardioides luteus DSM 43366T (99.3% sequence identity), Nocardioides albus DSM 43109T (98.9%), Nocardioides panzhihuensis DSM 26487T (98.3%) and Nocardioides albertanoniae DSM 25218T (97.9%). The orthologous average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values were in the range of 85.8-91.0% and 30.2-35.9%, respectively, with the type strains of closely related species. The genome size of strain KC13T was 5.3 Mb with a DNA G + C content of 69.7%. Comprehensive genome analyses showed that strain KC13T, unlike its close relatives, had many genes associated with environmental adaptation. Strain KC13T was found to have chemotaxonomic and phenotypic characteristics of members of the genus Nocardioides and some differences from phylogenetic neighbours. Based on the chemotaxonomic, genomic, phenotypic and phylogenetic data, strain KC13T represents a novel species of the genus Nocardioides, for which the name Nocardioides turkmenicus sp. nov. is proposed, and the type strain is KC13T (= JCM 33525T = CGMCC 4.7619T).

Abstract
Many marine organisms produce bioactive molecules with unique characteristics to survive in their ecological niches. These enzymes can be applied in biotechnological processes and in the medical sector to replace aggressive chemicals that are harmful to the environment. Especially in the human health sector, there is a need for new approaches to fight against pathogens like Stenotrophomonas maltophilia which forms thick biofilms on artificial joints or catheters and causes serious diseases. Our approach was to use enrichment cultures of five marine resources that underwent sequence-based screenings in combination with deep omics analyses in order to identify enzymes with antibiofilm characteristics. Especially the supernatant of the enrichment culture of a stony coral caused a 40% reduction of S. maltophilia biofilm formation. In the presence of the supernatant, our transcriptome dataset showed a clear stress response (upregulation of transcripts for metal resistance, antitoxins, transporter, and iron acquisition) to the treatment. Further investigation of the enrichment culture metagenome and proteome indicated a series of potential antimicrobial enzymes. We found an impressive group of metalloproteases in the proteome of the supernatant that is responsible for the detected anti-biofilm effect against S. maltophilia. KEY POINTS: • Omics-based discovery of novel marine-derived antimicrobials for human health management by inhibition of S. maltophilia • Up to 40% reduction of S. maltophilia biofilm formation by the use of marine-derived samples • Metalloprotease candidates prevent biofilm formation of S. maltophilia K279a by up to 20.

Abstract
Soil microbiota can confer fitness advantages to plants and increase crop resilience to drought and other abiotic stressors. However, there is little evidence on the mechanisms correlating a microbial trait with plant abiotic stress tolerance. Here, we report that Streptomyces effectively alleviate drought and salinity stress by producing spiroketal polyketide pteridic acid H (1) and its isomer F (2), both of which promote root growth in Arabidopsis at a concentration of 1.3 nM under abiotic stress. Transcriptomics profiles show increased expression of multiple stress responsive genes in Arabidopsis seedlings after pteridic acids treatment. We confirm in vivo a bifunctional biosynthetic gene cluster for pteridic acids and antimicrobial elaiophylin production. We propose it is mainly disseminated by vertical transmission and is geographically distributed in various environments. This discovery reveals a perspective for understanding plant-Streptomyces interactions and provides a promising approach for utilising beneficial Streptomyces and their secondary metabolites in agriculture to mitigate the detrimental effects of climate change.

Abstract
Introduction. There is an urgent need to source new compounds that can combat the current threat of serious infection caused by Candida spp. and contend with the problem of antimicrobial resistance.
Gap. A synthesis of the evidence available from the current literature is needed to identify promising antifungal chemotherapeutics.
Aim. To highlight anti-Candida compounds derived from
Streptomyces
spp. (a well-known source of antimicrobial compounds) that could translate to potential candidates for future clinical practice.
Methodology. A comprehensive review was conducted across three scientific literature databases spanning a 13-year period.
Results. We identified 151 compounds with anti-Candida activity. Amongst these, 40 were reported with very strong inhibitory activity, having minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against Candida spp. of <3.5 µg ml−1, 66 compounds were considered strong inhibitors and 45 compounds exhibited moderate inhibitory potential. From an analysis of the MICs, we deduced that the actinomycin-like compounds RSP01 and RSP02 were probably the most promising anti-Candida compounds. Other antifungals of note included filipin-like compounds, which demonstrated superior inhibition to amphotericin B and activity against Candida glabrata and Candida krusei, and bafilomycin derivatives, which had substantial inhibition against Candida parapsilosis.
Conclusion. It is essential to recognize the limitations inherent in the quest for new antifungals, which encompass toxicity, in vivo effectiveness and constraints associated with limited data access. However, further investigation through in-depth study and emerging technologies is of paramount importance, given that there are still many more compounds to discover. This review highlights the importance of antifungal compounds derived from
Streptomyces
, which demonstrate robust inhibition, and, in many cases, low toxicity, making them promising candidates for the development of novel antifungal agents.

Abstract
The increasing number of infections caused by antimicrobial multi-resistant microorganisms has led to the search for new microorganisms capable of producing novel antibiotics. This work proposes Streptomyces pakalii sp. nov. as a new member of the Streptomycetaceae family. The strain ENCB-J15 was isolated from the jungle soil in Palenque National Park, Chiapas, Mexico. The strain formed pale brown, dry, tough, and buried colonies in the agar with no diffusible pigment in GAE (glucose-asparagine-yeast extract) medium. Scanning electron micrographs showed typical mycelium with long chains of smooth and oval-shaped spores (3-10 m). The strain grew in all of the International Streptomyces Project (ISP)'s media at 28-37 °C with a pH of 6-9 and 0-10% NaCl. S. pakalii ENCB-J15 assimilated diverse carbon as well as organic and inorganic nitrogen sources. The strain also exhibited significant inhibitory activity against the prodigiosin synthesis of Serratia marcescens and the inhibition of the formation and destruction of biofilms of ESKAPE strains of Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The draft genome sequencing of ENCB-J15 revealed a 7.6 Mb genome with a high G + C content (71.6%), 6833 total genes, and 6746 genes encoding putative proteins. A total of 26 accessory clusters of proteins associated with carbon sources and amino acid catabolism, DNA modification, and the antibiotic biosynthetic process were annotated. The 16S rRNA gene phylogeny, core-proteome phylogenomic tree, and virtual genome fingerprints support that S. pakalii ENCB-J15 is a new species related to Streptomyces badius and Streptomyces globisporus. Similarly, its average nucleotide identity (ANI) (96.4%), average amino acid identity (AAI) (96.06%), and virtual DNA-DNA hybridization (67.3%) provide evidence to recognize it as a new species. Comparative genomics revealed that S. pakalli and its closest related species maintain a well-conserved genomic synteny. This work proposes Streptomyces pakalii sp. nov. as a novel species that expresses anti-biofilm and anti-quorum sensing activities.

Taxonomy and anticancer potential of Streptomyces niphimycinicus sp. nov. against nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2023; 107:6325-6338. [PMID: 37566161 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-023-12707-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/12/2023]
Abstract
Streptomyces species are ubiquitous, Gram-positive, spore-forming bacteria with the ability to produce various clinically relevant compounds. The strain 4503 T was isolated from mangrove sediments, showing morphological and chemical properties which were consistent with those of members of the genus Streptomyces. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolate was primarily identified as members of the genus Streptomyces, sharing more than 99% sequence identity to Streptomyces yatensis DSM 41771 T, S. antimycoticus NBRC 12839 T, and S. melanosporofaciens NBRC 13061 T. Average nucleotide identities (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between strain 4503 T and its close relatives were all below 95-96% and 75% of the novel species threshold, respectively. Results from phylogenetic, genomic, phenotypic, and chemotaxonomic characteristics analyses confirmed that the isolate represented a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces niphimycinicus sp. nov. 4503 T (= MCCC 1K04557T = JCM 34996 T) is proposed. The bioassay-guided fractionation of the extract of strain 4503 T resulted in the isolation of a known compound niphimycin C, which showed cytotoxic activity against nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell lines TW03 and 5-8F with half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of 12.24 µg/mL and 9.44 µg/mL, respectively. Further experiments revealed that niphimycin C not only exhibited the capacity of anti-proliferation, anti-metastasis, induction of cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis, but was also able to increase the reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and regulate several signaling pathways in NPC cells. KEY POINTS: • Strain 4503 T was classified as a novel species of Streptomyces. • Niphimycin C correlates with the cytotoxic effect of strain 4503 T against NPC cells. • Niphimycin C induces apoptosis, autophagic flux disruption and cell cycle arrest.

Abstract
Two novel actinobacterial strains, designated RB6PN23T and K1PA1T, were isolated from peat swamp soil samples in Thailand and characterized using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. The strains were filamentous Gram-stain-positive bacteria containing ll-diaminopimelic acid in their whole-cell hydrolysates. Phylogenetic analysis of their 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain RB6PN23T was most closely related to Streptomyces rubrisoli (99.1 % sequence similarity) and Streptomyces ferralitis (98.5%), while strain K1PA1T showed 98.8 and 98.7% sequence similarities to Streptomyces coacervatus and Streptomyces griseoruber, respectively. However, the average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values were below the species-level thresholds (95-96 % ANI and 70 % dDDH). The genomes of strains RB6PN23T and K1PA1T were estimated to be 7.88 Mbp and 7.39 Mbp in size, respectively, with DNA G+C contents of 70.2 and 73.2 mol%. Moreover, strains RB6PN23T and K1PA1T encode 37 and 24 putative biosynthetic gene clusters, respectively, and in silico analysis revealed that these new species have a high potential to produce unique natural products. Genotypic and phenotypic characteristics confirmed that strains RB6PN23T and K1PA1T represented two novel species in the genus Streptomyces. The names proposed for these strains are Streptomyces silvisoli sp. nov. (type strain RB6PN23T=TBRC 17040T=NBRC 116113T) and Streptomyces tropicalis sp. nov. (type strain K1PA1T=TBRC 17041T=NBRC 116114T). Additionally, a giant linear polyene compound, neotetrafibricin A, exhibiting antifungal activity in strain RB6PN23T, was identified through HPLC and quadrupole time-of-flight MS analysis. The crude extract from the culture broth of strain RB6PN23T exhibited strong antifungal activity against Fusarium verticillioides, Fusarium fujikuroi and Bipolaris zeicola. This finding suggests that strain RB6PN23T could be a promising candidate for biological control of fungal diseases.

Abstract
A wide range of bioactive compounds with potential medical applications are produced by members of the genus Streptomyces. A new actinomycete producer of the antibiotic γ-rubromycin, designated TA 36, was isolated from an alpine soil sample collected in Peru (Machu Picchu). Morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics of the strain, together with data obtained via phylogenetic analysis and MALDI-TOF MS, were used for the correct identification of the isolate. The isolate TA 36 showed morphological characteristics that were consistent with its classification within the genus Streptomyces. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that the TA 36 strain was most similar to S. iakyrus and S. violaceochromogenes with 99% similarity. Phylogenetic analysis together with the profile of whole cell proteins indicated that the strain tested could be identified as S. iakyrus TA 36. The crude extract Ext.5333.TA 36 showed various effects against the tested organisms with strong antimicrobial activity in the growth of Staphylococcus aureus (Newman) (MIC value of 0.00195 µg/µL). HPLC fractionation and LC/MS analysis of the crude extract led to the identification of the quinone antibiotic γ-rubromycin, a promising antitumour and antibacterial antibiotic. To the best of our knowledge, there is currently no report on the production of γ-rubromycin by S. iakyrus. Therefore, this study suggests S. iakyrus TA 36 as the first-reported source of this unique bioactive secondary metabolite.

Abstract
Streptomyces is renowned for its abundant production of bioactive secondary metabolites, but most of these natural products are produced in low yields. Traditional rational network refactoring is highly dependent on the comprehensive understanding of regulatory mechanisms and multiple manipulations of genome editing. Though random mutagenesis is fairly straightforward, it lacks a general and effective strategy for high throughput screening of the desired strains. Here in an antibiotic daptomycin producer S. roseosporus, we developed a dual-reporter system at the native locus of the daptomycin gene cluster. After elimination of three enzymes that potentially produce pigments by genome editing, a gene idgS encoding the indigoidine synthetase and a kanamycin resistant gene neo were integrated before and after the non-ribosomal peptidyl synthetase genes for daptomycin biosynthesis, respectively. After condition optimization of UV-induced mutagenesis, strains with hyper-resistance to kanamycin along with over-production of indigoidine were efficiently obtained after one round of mutagenesis and target screening based on the dual selection of the reporter system. Four mutant strains showed increased production of daptomycin from 1.4 to 6.4 folds, and significantly improved expression of the gene cluster. Our native-locus dual reporter system is efficient for targeting screening after random mutagenesis and would be widely applicable for the effective engineering of Streptomyces species and hyper-production of these invaluable natural products for pharmaceutical development.

Abstract
A novel actinobacterium, designated strain SMC 277T, was isolated from the clay soil in paddy field of Chonburi Province, Thailand, and characterized using polyphasic taxonomy. Strain SMC 277T formed straight chains of nonmotile cylindrical spores with smooth surface developed on aerial mycelia. The typical chemotaxonomic properties of members of the genus Streptomyces were observed in strain SMC 277T, e.g., cell wall peptidoglycan, whole cell sugars, major menaquinones, cellular fatty acids, and polar lipids. Chemotaxonomic data combined with mycelium and spore morphologies supported the assignment of strain SMC 277T to the genus Streptomyces. The results of comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences confirmed that strain SMC 277T represented a member of the genus Streptomyces. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain SMC 277T shared the highest sequence similarity with Streptomyces bambusae NBRC 110903T (98.8%). Genome sequencing revealed a genome size of 6.55 Mbp and a digital G+C content of 73.4 mol%. In addition to the differences in phenotypic characteristics (morphology and physiology), values of ANI (ANIb and ANIm), AAI and dDDH between strain SMC 277T and its closest relative S. bambusae NBRC 110903T were 81.84, 86.77, 76.91 and 26.1%, respectively. Genome annotation and secondary metabolite gene cluster analysis predicted that SMC 277T contained 35 biosynthetic gene clusters encoding diverse bioactive secondary metabolites. It is in agreement with observed antimicrobial activity against drug-resistant bacteria associated with nosocomial infections (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Klebsiella pneumoniae, and multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii). On the basis of these genotypic and phenotypic characteristics, strain SMC 277T can be characterized to represent a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces antimicrobicus is proposed. The type strain is SMC 277T (= TBRC 15568T = NBRC 115422T).

Abstract
An actinomycete strain, AA8T, which produced a long straight chain of spores (verticillati type), was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of Mangifera indica in Bangkok, Thailand. A polyphasic taxonomic study was carried out to establish the taxonomic position of the strain. Strain AA8T formed a tight taxonomic position in the 16S rRNA gene tree with Streptomyces roseifaciens MBT76T. In contrast, the genome-based taxonomic analysis showed that strain AA8T shared low average nucleotide identity-BLAST (94.1%), the digital DNA-DNA hybridization (58.2%), and the average amino acid identity (93.6%) values with S. roseifaciens MBT76T. Moreover, a combination of physiological and biochemical properties indicated that strain AA8T was distinguished from all Streptomyces species with effectively published names. Strain AA8T, therefore, represents a novel species of Streptomyces, and the name Streptomyces telluris is proposed for the strain. The type strain is AA8T (= TBRC 8483T = NBRC 113461T). The chemical investigation led to the isolation of nine known compounds (compounds 1-9). Among these compounds, compound 7 (3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde) possesses strong antioxidant activity equal to ascorbic acid, a powerful antioxidative agent.

Abstract
Endophytic fungi and bacteria live asymptomatically within plant tissues. In recent decades, research on endophytes has revealed that their significant role in promoting plants as endophytes has been shown to enhance nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, and disease resistance in the host plants, resulting in improved crop yields. Evidence shows that endophytes can provide improved tolerances to salinity, moisture, and drought conditions, highlighting the capacity to farm them in marginal land with the use of endophyte-based strategies. Furthermore, endophytes offer a sustainable alternative to traditional agricultural practices, reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and in turn reducing the risks associated with chemical treatments. In this review, we summarise the current knowledge on endophytes in agriculture, highlighting their potential as a sustainable solution for improving crop productivity and general plant health. This review outlines key nutrient, environmental, and biotic stressors, providing examples of endophytes mitigating the effects of stress. We also discuss the challenges associated with the use of endophytes in agriculture and the need for further research to fully realise their potential.

Abstract
Introduction: A wide range of pollutants, including the likes of xenobiotics, heavy metals, and antibiotics, are characteristic of marine ecosystems. The ability of the bacteria to flourish under high metal stress favors the selection of antibiotic resistance in aquatic environments. Increased use and misuse of antibiotics in medicine, agriculture, and veterinary have posed a grave concern over antimicrobial resistance. The exposure to these heavy metals and antibiotics in the bacteria drives the evolution of antibiotic and heavy metal resistance genes. In the earlier study by the author Alcaligenes sp. MMA was involved in the removal of heavy metals and antibiotics. Alcaligenes display diverse bioremediation capabilities but remain unexplored at the level of the genome. Methods: To shed light on its genome, the Alcaligenes sp. strain MMA, was sequenced using Illumina Nova Seq sequencer, which resulted in a draft genome of 3.9 Mb. The genome annotation was done using Rapid annotation using subsystem technology (RAST). Given the spread of antimicrobial resistance and the generation of multi-drug resistant pathogens (MDR), the strain MMA was checked for potential antibiotic and heavy metal resistance genes Further, we checked for the presence of biosynthetic gene clusters in the draft genome. Results: Alcaligenes sp. strain MMA, was sequenced using Illumina Nova Seq sequencer, which resulted in a draft genome of 3.9 Mb. The RAST analysis revealed the presence of 3685 protein-coding genes, involved in the removal of antibiotics and heavy metals. Multiple metal-resistant genes and genes conferring resistance to tetracycline, beta-lactams, and fluoroquinolones were present in the draft genome. Many types of BGCs were predicted, such as siderophore. The secondary metabolites of fungi and bacteria are a rich source of novel bioactive compounds which have the potential to in new drug candidates. Discussion: The results of this study provide information on the strain MMA genome and are valuable for the researcher in further exploitation of the strain MMA for bioremediation. Moreover, whole-genome sequencing has become a useful tool to monitor the spread of antibiotic resistance, a global threat to healthcare.

Abstract
The major safety risk of maize grain is contamination with mycotoxins. In this study, a maize-coating formulation containing freeze-dried culture filtrate of Streptomyces philanthi RL-1-178 (DCF RL-1-178) was developed and evaluated to prevent the growth of mycotoxins during maize grain storage. In vitro studies using confrontation tests on PDA plates indicated that S. philanthi RL-1-178 inhibited the growth of Aspergillus parasiticus TISTR 3276 (89.0%) and A. flavus PSRDC-4 (95.0%). The maize grain coating formulations containing the DCF RL-1-178 (0, 5, 10, and 15% (v/v)) and the polymer polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP-K90, 4.0% (w/v)) were tested for their efficacy in In vitro and during 5 months storage. In In vitro assay, maize coating formular containing the optimum concentration (15.0%, v/v) of the DCF RL-1-178 exhibited 54.80% and 54.17% inhibition on the growth of A. parasiticus TISTR 3276 and A. flavus PSRDC-4 respectively. The inhibition was also illustrated by the microstructures of interactions between the coated maize grains with or without the DCF RL-1-178 and the fungal pathogens observed under microscope and SEM. Incorporating the DCF RL-1-178 or fungicidal Metalaxyl® into the polymer PVP-K90 maize grains coating resulted in the complete inhibition of the production of aflatoxin B1 (analysed by HPLC) by the two aflatoxigenic pathogens after 5 months storage at room temperature. However, the shelf-life was shortened to only 3 months during storage at room temperature with 90% relative humidity. Overall, the application of the 10-15% DCF RL-1-178 into the maize grain coating formular provides a new alternative measure to control the mycotoxins during storage for at least 5 months. The In vitro cell cytotoxicity study showed that a concentration of 15% (v/v) or 1000 μg/mL of the DCF RL-1-178 had a strong cytotoxic effect on Vero cells. These findings indicate that DCF RL-1-178 is a potential biofungicide for controlling mycotoxins contamination in maize seed storage for planting, but not maize grain storage for animal feed.

Abstract
Covering: up to 2022Streptomyces are ubiquitous in terrestrial and marine environments, where they display a fascinating metabolic diversity. As a result, these bacteria are a prolific source of active natural products. One important class of these natural products is the nonribosomal lipopeptides, which have diverse biological activities and play important roles in the lifestyle of Streptomyces. The importance of this class is highlighted by the use of related antibiotics in the clinic, such as daptomycin (tradename Cubicin). By virtue of recent advances spanning chemistry and biology, significant progress has been made in biosynthetic studies on the lipopeptide antibiotics produced by Streptomyces. This review will serve as a comprehensive guide for researchers working in this multidisciplinary field, providing a summary of recent progress regarding the investigation of lipopeptides from Streptomyces. In particular, we highlight the structures, properties, biosynthetic mechanisms, chemical and chemoenzymatic synthesis, and biological functions of lipopeptides. In addition, the application of genome mining techniques to Streptomyces that have led to the discovery of many novel lipopeptides is discussed, further demonstrating the potential of lipopeptides from Streptomyces for future development in modern medicine.

Abstract
Seven undescribed compounds, including four naphthoquinone terpenoids (aculeolatins A - D), one rare 2-nitropyrrole terpenoid (nitropyrrolin F), and two hydroxamate siderophores (aculeolamides A and B) and one further undescribed compound (2,5,7-trihydroxy-3,6-dimethylnaphthalene-1,4-dione), together with eleven known compounds (arromycin, phenaziterpene A, nitropyrrolin A, heronapyrroles A and B, salaceyin A, 5,7-dihydroxy-2-isopropylchromone, 1-hydroxyphenazine, 1-methoxyphenazine, 1-acetyl-β-carboline, and N-(2-phenylethyl) acetamide), were isolated from the cultures of the endophytic Streptomyces aculeolatus MS1-6. The structures of the isolated compounds were determined using NMR spectroscopy and corroborated using chemical modification. These compounds exhibited a broad spectrum of biological activities, including antimalarial (IC50 6.03-9.84 μg/mL), antitubercular (MIC 3.13-6.25 μg/mL), anti-plant pathogenic fungal (MIC 25.0-50.0 μg/mL), and antibacterial (MIC 3.03-50 μg/mL) activities; however, they displayed unremarkable cytotoxicity against cancerous (MCF-7 and NCI-H187) and non-cancerous (Vero) cell lines.

Abstract
Streptomyces are factories of antimicrobial secondary metabolites. We isolated a Streptomyces species associated with the Pelargonium graveolens rhizosphere. Its total metabolic extract exhibited potent antibacterial and antifungal properties against all the tested pathogenic microbes. Whole genome sequencing and genome analyses were performed to take a look at its main characteristics and to reconstruct the metabolic pathways that can be associated with biotechnologically useful traits. AntiSMASH was used to identify the secondary metabolite gene clusters. In addition, we searched for known genes associated with plant growth-promoting characteristics. Finally, a comparative and pan-genome analysis with three closely related genomes was conducted. It was identified as Streptomyces vinaceusdrappus strain AC-40. Genome mining indicated the presence of several secondary metabolite gene clusters. Some of them are identical or homologs to gene clusters of known metabolites with antimicrobial, antioxidant, and other bioactivities. It also showed the presence of several genes related to plant growth promotion traits. The comparative genome analysis indicated that at least five of these gene clusters are highly conserved through rochei group genomes. The genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of S. vinaceusdrappus strain AC-40 indicate that it is a promising source of beneficial secondary metabolites with pharmaceutical and biotechnological applications.

Genomic and Metabolite Profiling Reveal a Novel Streptomyces Strain, QHH-9511, from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0276422.

Abstract
The prevalence of superbugs, represented by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), has become a serious clinical and public safety concern with rising incidence in hospitals. Polyketides with diverse chemical structures harbor many antimicrobial activities, including those of rifampin and rapamycin against MRSA. Streptomyces sp. QHH-9511 was isolated from a niche habitat in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and used to produce antibacterial metabolites. Herein, an integrated approach combining genome mining and metabolic analysis were employed to decipher the chemical origin of the antibacterial components with pigmented properties in strain QHH-9511, a novel Streptomyces species from a lichen symbiont on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Genomic phylogeny assembled at the chromosome level revealed its unique evolutionary state. Further genome mining uncovered 36 candidate gene clusters, most of which were uncharacterized. Meanwhile, based on liquid chromatography coupled to diode array detection mass spectrometry, a series of granaticins, BSMs, chromones, phaeochromycins, and related molecules were discovered by using the Global Natural Product Social molecular networking platform. Subsequently, several pigment compounds were isolated and identified by high-resolution mass spectrometry and/or nuclear magnetic resonance, among which the structure-activity relationships of seven aromatic polyketides showed that the fused lactone ring of the C-2 carboxyl group could increase antibacterial activity. Genetic experiments indicated that all seven aromatic polyketides are a series of metabolic shunts produced by a single type II polyketide synthase (PKS) cluster. Comparative genomic analysis of granaticin producers showed that the granaticin gene cluster is widely distributed. This study provides an efficient method to combine genome mining and metabolic profiling techniques to uncover bioactive metabolites derived from specific habitats, while deepening our understanding of aromatic polyketide biosynthesis. IMPORTANCE Undescribed microorganisms from special habitats are being screened for anti-superbug drug molecules. In a project to screen actinomycetes for anti-MRSA activity, we isolated a Streptomyces strain from Qinghai Lake lichens. The phylogeny based on the genome assembled at the chromosome level revealed this strain's unique evolutionary state. The chemical origins of the antibacterial components with pigment properties in strain QHH-9511 were determined using an integrated approach combining genome mining and metabolic analysis. Further genome mining uncovered 36 secondary metabolite gene clusters, the majority of which were previously unknown. A series of aromatic compounds were discovered using molecular network analysis, separation, and extraction. Genetic experiments revealed that all seven aromatic polyketides are a series of metabolic shunts produced by a single cluster of type II PKSs. This study describes a method for identifying novel Streptomyces from specific habitats by combining genome mining with metabolic profiling techniques.

Insecticidal activities of Streptomyces sp. KSF103 ethyl acetate extract against medically important mosquitoes and non-target organisms. Sci Rep 2023; 13:4. [PMID: 36593229 PMCID: PMC9807562 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-25387-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/30/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
A potentially novel actinobacterium isolated from forest soil, Streptomyces sp. KSF103 was evaluated for its insecticidal effect against several mosquito species namely Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus, Anopheles cracens and Culex quinquefasciatus. Mosquito larvae and adults were exposed to various concentrations of the ethyl acetate (EA) extract for 24 h. Considerable mortality was evident after the EA extract treatment for all four important vector mosquitoes. Larvicidal activity of the EA extract resulted in LC50 at 0.045 mg/mL and LC90 at 0.080 mg/mL for Ae. aegypti; LC50 at 0.060 mg/mL and LC90 at 0.247 mg/mL for Ae. albopictus; LC50 at 2.141 mg/mL and LC90 at 6.345 mg/mL for An. cracens; and LC50 at 0.272 mg/mL and LC90 at 0.980 mg/mL for Cx. quinquefasciatus. In adulticidal tests, the EA extract was the most toxic to Ae. albopictus adults (LD50 = 2.445 mg/mL; LD90 = 20.004 mg/mL), followed by An. cracens (LD50 = 5.121 mg/mL; LD90 = 147.854 mg/mL) and then Ae. aegypti (LD50 = 28.873 mg/mL; LD90 = 274.823 mg/mL). Additionally, the EA extract exhibited ovicidal activity against Ae. aegypti (LC50 = 0.715 mg/mL; LC90 = 6.956 mg/mL), Ae. albopictus (LC50 = 0.715 mg/mL; LC90 = 6.956 mg/mL), and An. cracens (LC50 = 0.715 mg/mL; LC90 = 6.956 mg/mL), evaluated up to 168 h post-treatment. It displayed no toxicity on the freshwater microalga Chlorella sp. Beijerinck UMACC 313, marine microalga Chlorella sp. Beijerinck UMACC 258 and the ant Odontoponera denticulata. In conclusion, the EA extract showed promising larvicidal, adulticidal and ovicidal activity against Ae. aegypti, Ae. albopictus, An. cracens, and Cx. quinquefasciatus (larvae only). The results suggest that the EA extract of Streptomyces sp. KSF103 has the potential to be used as an environmental-friendly approach in mosquito control. The current study would serve as an initial step toward complementing microbe-based bioinsecticides for synthetic insecticides against medically important mosquitoes.

METHODS: The primers Strep F; 5-AGAGTTTGAT CCTGKGTCAG-3 and Strep R; 5-AAGGGAG GTGATCCAKKGKGA-3 were used in polymerase chain reaction amplification of the 16S rRNA gene against Streptomyces strains. The anti-TB activity of Streptomyces sp. was determined by broth dilution method using Middlebrook 7H9 media.
RESULTS: The results showed that new types of Streptomyces spp., namely, Streptomyces A, Streptomyces D, Streptomyces Ea, Streptomyces Ep, Streptomyces I, Streptomyces F, and Streptomyces G from garbage dump soils. This result also showed that the activity of Streptomyces I, Streptomyces F, and Streptomyces G could inhibit the Mycobacterium TB growth by with inhibitory zones, respectively, 2 ± 0.3; 8 ± 0.7 and 15 ± 0.9mm, while Streptomyces A, Streptomyces D, Streptomyces Ea, and Streptomyces Ep did not inhibit M. TB.
CONCLUSION: Thus, from the results obtained, it can be concluded that Streptomyces extract mainly Streptomyces G has promising anti-TB activity by preliminary in vitro techniques. Therefore, it has the definite potential as a source of compounds that may be developed further into antimycobacterial drugs.

Abstract
Bacteria are well known producers of bioactive secondary metabolites, including some of the most effective antibiotics in use today. While the caves of Oceania are still largely under-explored, they form oligotrophic and extreme environments that are a promising source for identifying novel species of bacteria with biologically active compounds. By using selective media that mimicked a cave environment, and pretreatments that suppressed the growth of fast-growing bacteria, we have cultured genetically diverse bacteria from a limestone cave in Fiji. Partial 16S rRNA gene sequences from isolates were determined and compared with 16S rRNA gene sequences in EzBioCloud and SILVA data bases. Fifty-five isolates purified from culture had Actinomycete-like morphologies and these were investigated for antibacterial activity. Initial screening using a cross streak test with pathogenic bacteria indicated that 34 of the isolates had antibacterial properties. The best matches for the isolates are bacteria with potential uses in the manufacture of antibiotics and pesticides, in bioremediation of toxic waste, in biomining, in producing bioplastics, and in plant growth promotion. Nineteen bacteria were confirmed as Actinomycetes. Thirteen were from the genus Streptomyces and six from genera considered to be rare Actinomycetes from Pseudonocardia, Kocuria, Micromonospora, Nonomuraea. Ten isolates were Firmicutes from the genera Bacillus, Lysinbacillus, Psychrobacillus and Fontibacillus. Two were Proteobacteria from the genera Mesorhizobium and Cupriavidus. Our findings identify a potentially rich source of microbes for applications in biotechnologies.

Abstract
A polyphasic approach was used to describe strain RB6PN25T, an actinobacterium isolated from peat swamp forest soil in Rayong Province, Thailand. The strain was a Gram-stain-positive and filamentous bacterium that contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, mannose and ribose in whole-cell hydrolysates. MK-9(H8) was the major menaquinone. The major fatty acids were iso-C16 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, two unidentified glycophospholipids, two unidentified aminolipids and an unidentified phospholipid. The 16S rRNA gene sequences analysis indicated that it was most closely related to Streptomyces rubrisoli DSM 42083T (97.6 %) and Streptomyces palmae TBRC 1999T (97.4 %). Strain RB6PN25T exhibited low average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values with S. rubrisoli DSM 42083T (78.6 %, 23.2 %) and S. palmae TBRC 1999T (76.0 %, 22.6 %). The DNA G+C content of strain RB6PN25T was 69.9%. The results of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, genotypic and phylogenetic analyses reveal that strain RB6PN25T represents a novel species of the genus Streptomyces, for which the name Streptomyces humicola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RB6PN25T (=TBRC 14819T=NBRC 115204T).

Abstract
DNA polymerase θ (Pol θ) is a DNA repair enzyme widely conserved in animals and plants. Pol θ uses short DNA sequence homologies to initiate repair of double-strand breaks by theta-mediated end joining. The DNA polymerase domain of Pol θ is at the C terminus and is connected to an N-terminal DNA helicase-like domain by a central linker. Pol θ is crucial for maintenance of damaged genomes during development, protects DNA against extensive deletions, and limits loss of heterozygosity. The cost of using Pol θ for genome protection is that a few nucleotides are usually deleted or added at the repair site. Inactivation of Pol θ often enhances the sensitivity of cells to DNA strand-breaking chemicals and radiation. Since some homologous recombination-defective cancers depend on Pol θ for growth, inhibitors of Pol θ may be useful in treating such tumors.

Efficacy of the antifungal metabolites of Streptomyces philanthi RL-1-178 on aflatoxin degradation with its application to prevent aflatoxigenic fungi in stored maize grains and identification of the bioactive compound. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2022; 39:24. [PMID: 36422721 DOI: 10.1007/s11274-022-03470-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Accepted: 11/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Aflatoxin B1 is a potent carcinogen produced by Aspergillus flavus (A. flavus) and Aspergillus. parasiticus (A. parasiticus), mainly during grain storage. The efficacy of the freeze-dried culture filtrate of Streptomyces philanthi (S. philanthi) strain RL-1-178 (DCF) on degradation of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) were evaluated and its bioactive compounds were identified. The DCF at a concentration of 9.0% (w/v) completely inhibited growth and AFB1 production of A. parasiticus TISTR 3276 and A. flavus PSRDC-4 after 7 days tested in yeast-extract sucrose (YES) medium and on stored maize grains after 28 and 14 days incubation, respectively. This indicated the more tolerance of A. parasiticus over A. flavus. The DCF and bacterial cells of S. philanthi were capable to degrade AFB1 by 85.0% and 100% for 72 h and 8 days, respectively. This confirmed the higher efficacy of the DCF over the cells. After separation of the DCF on thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plate by bioautography bioassay, each active band was identified by liquid chromatography-quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometer (LC-Q-TOF MS/MS). The results revealed two compounds which were identified as azithromycin and an unknown based on mass ions of both ESI+ and ESI- modes. The antifungal metabolites in the culture filtrate of S. philanthi were proved to degrade aflatoxin B1. It could be concluded that the DCF may be applied to prevent the growth of the two aflatoxin-producing fungi as well as the occurrence of aflatoxin in the stored maize grains.

New Angucycline Glycosides from a Marine-Derived Bacterium Streptomyces ardesiacus. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232213779. [PMID: 36430256 PMCID: PMC9698790 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232213779] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2022] [Revised: 11/01/2022] [Accepted: 11/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Chemical investigation of the ethyl acetate extract from the culture broth of the marine-derived actinobacterium Streptomyces ardesiacus 156VN-095 led to the isolation of three hitherto undescribed angucycline glycosides, including urdamycins W and X (1 and 2) and grincamycin U (9), as well as their seven known congeners. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by means of spectroscopic methods (HRESIMS, 1D and 2 D NMR) and comparison of their experimental data with literature values. Compounds 1-3 and 9 were evaluated for their anti-Gram-positive bacterial effect and cytotoxicity against six cancer cell lines. Compound 1 displayed significant cytotoxicity against all the tested cell lines with GI50 values of 0.019-0.104 µM. Collectively, these findings highlight the potential of angucycline glycosides as leading structures for the development of new anti-cancer drugs.

Antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of Streptomyces species from soils of three different cold sites in the Fez-Meknes region Morocco. Sci Rep 2022; 12:17233. [PMID: 36241756 PMCID: PMC9568536 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-21644-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/01/2022] [Accepted: 09/29/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The increasing demand for new bioactive compounds to combat the evolution of multi-drug resistance (MDR) requires research on microorganisms in different environments in order to identify new potent molecules. In this study, initial screening regarding the antimicrobial activity of 44 Actinomycetes isolates isolated from three soil samples from three different extremely cold sites in Morocco was carried out. Primary and secondary screening were performed against Candida albicans ATCC 60,193, Escherichia coli ATCC 25,922, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25,923, Bacillus cereus ATCC 14,579, other clinical MDR bacteria, and thirteen phytopathogenic fungi. Based on the results obtained, 11 active isolates were selected for further study. The 11microbial isolates were identified based on morphological and biochemical characters and their molecular identification was performed using 16S rRNA sequence homology. The UV-visible analysis of dichloromethane extracts of the five Streptomyces sp. Strains that showed high antimicrobial and antioxidant (ABTS 35.8% and DPPH 25.6%) activities revealed the absence of polyene molecules. GC-MS analysis of the dichloromethane extract of E23-4 as the most active strain revealed the presence of 21 volatile compounds including Pyrrolopyrazine (98%) and Benzeneacetic acid (90%). In conclusion, we studied the isolation of new Streptomyces strains to produce new compounds with antimicrobial and antioxidant activities in a cold and microbiologically unexplored region of Morocco. Furthermore, this study has demonstrated a significant (P < 0.0001) positive correlation between total phenolic and flavonoid contents and antioxidant capacity, paving the way for the further characterization of these Streptomyces sp. isolates for their optimal use for anticancer, antioxidant, and antimicrobial purposes.
