Boukeroui Y, González-Siso MI, DeCastro ME, Arab M, Aissaoui N, Nas F, Saibi ANE, Klouche Khelil N. Characterization, whole-genome sequence analysis, and protease production of a new thermophilic Bacillus licheniformis strain isolated from Debagh hot spring, Algeria. Int Microbiol 2024:10.1007/s10123-024-00569-9. [PMID: 39129036 DOI: 10.1007/s10123-024-00569-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/06/2024] [Revised: 07/26/2024] [Accepted: 07/31/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024]
Abstract
A new thermophilic strain, designated as Bacillus sp. LMB3902, was isolated from Hammam Debagh, the hottest spring in Algeria (up to 98 °C). This isolate showed high protease production in skim milk media at 55 °C and exhibited significant specific protease activity by using azocasein as a substrate (157.50 U/mg). Through conventional methods, chemotaxonomic characteristics, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and comparative genomic analysis with the closely related strain Bacillus licheniformis DSM 13 (ATCC 14580 T), the isolate Bacillus sp. LMB3902 was identified as a potentially new strain of Bacillus licheniformis. In addition, the gene functions of Bacillus sp. LMB3902 strain were predicted using the Gene Ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, Clusters of Orthologous Groups, Non-Redundant Protein Sequence Database, Swiss-Prot, and Pfam databases. The results showed that the genome size of Bacillus sp. LMB3902 was 4.279.557 bp, with an average GC content of 46%. The genome contained 4.760 predicted genes, including 8 rRNAs, 78 tRNAs, and 24 sRNAs. A total of 235 protease genes were annotated including 50 proteases with transmembrane helix structures and eight secreted proteases with signal peptides. Additionally, the majority of secondary metabolites found by antiSMASH platform showed low similarity to identified natural products, such as fengicin (53%), lichenysin (57%), and surfactin (34%), suggesting that this strain may encode for novel uncharacterized natural products which can be useful for biotechnological applications. This study is the first report that describes the complete genome sequence, taxono-genomics, and gene annotation as well as protease production of the Bacillus genus in this hydrothermal vent.

Biogenic synthesized copper oxide nanoparticles by Bacillus subtilis: Investigating antibacterial activity on the mexAB-oprM efflux pump genes and cytotoxic effect on MCF-7 cells. J Basic Microbiol 2023; 63:960-970. [PMID: 37189220 DOI: 10.1002/jobm.202200718] [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: 12/26/2022] [Revised: 02/19/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
One of the main characteristics of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is remarkable intrinsic antibiotic resistance which is associated with production of β-lactamases and the expression of inducible efflux pumps. Nanoparticles (NPs) are a novel option for coping with this resistant bacteria. Hence, the aim of present study was production of CuO NPs via Bacillus subtilis and applied them to deal with resistant bacteria. For this purpose, first NPs were synthesized and were analyzed with different standard techniques containing scanning electron microscope, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray powder diffraction. Microdilution Broth Method and real-time polymerase chain reaction were used to antibacterial properties of the CuO NPs and expression of mexAB-oprM in clinical samples of P. aeruginosa, respectively. The cytotoxic effect of CuO NPs was also evaluated on MCF7 as a breast cancer cell line. Finally, the data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance and Tukey's tests. The size of CuO NPs was in the range of 17-26 nm and showed antibacterial effect at <1000 μg/mL concentrations. Our evidence noted that the antibacterial effects of the CuO NPs occurred through the downregulation of mexAB-oprM and upregulation of mexR. The interesting point was that CuO NPs had an inhibitory effect on MCF7 cell lines with the optimal inhibition concentration at IC50 = 25.73 µg/mL. Therefore, CuO NPs can be considered as a promising medical candidate in the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
Introduction Insights about the effects of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the biosynthetic manipulation of unknown microbe secondary metabolites could be a promising technique for prospective research on nano-biotechnology. Aim In this research, we aimed to isolate a fresh, non-domesticated unknown bacterium strain from a common scab of potato crop located in Saudi Arabia and study the metabolic profile. Methodology This was achieved through genomic DNA (gDNA) sequencing using Oxford Nanopore Technology. The genomic data were subjected to several bioinformatics tools, including canu-1.9 software, Prokka, DFAST, Geneious Prime, and AntiSMASH. We exposed the culture of the bacterial isolate with different concentrations of AuNPs and investigated the effects of AuNPs on secondary metabolites biosynthesis using several analytical techniques. Furthermore, Tandem-mass spectrometric (MS/MS) technique was optimized for the characterization of several significant sub-classes. Results The genomic draft sequence assembly, alignment, and annotation have verified the bacterial isolate as Priestia megaterium. This bacterium has secondary metabolites related to different biosynthetic gene clusters. AuNPs intervention showed an increase in the production of compounds with the molecular weights of 254 and 270 Da in a direct-dependent manner with the increase of the AuNPs concentrations. Conclusion The increase in the yields of compound 1 and 2 concomitantly with the increase in the concentration of the added AuNPs provide evidences about the effects of nanoparticles on the biosynthesis of the secondary metabolites. It contributes to the discovery of genes involved in different biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) and prediction of the structures of the natural products.

Abstract
The rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) impacts public health due to the diminished potency of existing antibiotics. The microbiome plays an important role in the host's immune system activity and shows the history of exposure to antimicrobials and its manipulation in combating antimicrobial resistance. Advancements in gene technologies, DNA sequencing, and computational biology have emerged as powerful platforms to better understand the relationship between animals and microorganisms (MOs). The past few years have witnessed an increase in the use of nanotechnology, both in industry and in academia, as tools to tackle antimicrobial resistance. New strategies of microbiome manipulation have been developed, such as the use of prebiotics, probiotics, peptides, antibodies, an appropriate diet, phage therapy, and the use of various nanotechnological techniques. Owing to the research outcomes, targeted delivery of antimicrobials with some modifications with nanoparticles can lead to the destruction of resistant microbial cells. In addition, nanoparticles have been studied for their potential antimicrobial effects both in vitro and in vivo. In this review, we highlight key opportunistic areas for applying nanotechnologies with the aim of manipulating the microbiome for the treatment of antimicrobial resistance. Besides providing a detailed review on various nanomaterials, technologies, opportunities, technical needs, and potential approaches for the manipulation of the microbiome to address these challenges, we discuss future challenges and our perspective.

Abstract
Greener synthetic methods are becoming more popular as a means of reducing environmental pollution caused by reaction byproducts. Another important advantage of green methods is their low cost and the abundance of raw materials. Herein, we investigate the green Au nanoclusters (NCs) using microorganisms (bacteria and fungi) and plant extraction with various shapes and development routes. Natural products derived from plants, tea, coffee, banana, simple amino acids, enzyme, sugar, and glucose have been used as reductants and as capping agents during synthesis in literature. The synthesis techniques are generally chemical, physical and green methods. Green synthesis of Au NCs using bacteria and fungi can be divided into intracellular and extracellular. In an intracellular manner, bacterial cells are implanted in a culture medium containing salt and heated under suitable growth conditions. However, in an extracellular manner, the Au ions are directed from the outside into the cell. Thus, these methods are considered as a better alternative to chemical and physical synthesis. The research on green synthesis of Au nanoparticles (NPs) and its influence on their size and morphology are summarized in this review.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to prepare 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-loaded biogenic gold nanoparticles with pluronic-based coating (PFGNPs), their optimization (full factorial predicted OBPN-1) and in vitro-ex vivo evaluation. Several formulations were prepared, selected for optimization using Design Expert®, and compared for morphology, 5-FU release kinetics, compatibility, cell line toxicity, in vitro hemocompatibility, and ex vivo intestinal permeation across the rat duodenum, jejunum, and ileum. The pluronic-coated 5-FU-carrying GNPs were spherical, 29.11-178.21 nm in diameter, with a polydispersity index (PDI) range of 0.191-292, and a zeta potential (ZP) range of 11.19-29.21 (-mV). The optimized OBPN-1 (desirability = 0.95) demonstrated optimum size (175.1 nm), %DL as 73.8%, ZP as 21.7 mV, % drug release (DR) as 75.7%, and greater cytotoxicity (viability ~ 8.9%) against the colon cancer cell lines than 5-FU solution (~ 24.91%), and less hemocompatibility. Moreover, OBPN-1 exhibited 4.5-fold permeation across the rat jejunum compared with 5-FU solution. Thus, the PFGNPs exhibit high DL capacity, sustained delivery, hemocompatibility, improved efficacy, and enhanced permeation profiles compared with 5-FU solution and several other NPs preparations suggesting it is a promising formulation for effective colon cancer control with reduced side effects.

Abstract
The study investigated in situ biosynthesis of albumin capped 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) loaded gold nanoparticles (NPs) using bacterial extract for enhanced efficacy against MCF-7 and in silico prediction using a GastroPlus® software. The optimized formulations were characterized for morphology, size, zeta potential, drug loading (%DL) and entrapment (%EE), compatibility, in vitro drug release, in vitro hemolysis, cellular toxicity and apoptosis studies. The results exhibited highly dispersed albumin capped mono-metallic stable NPs. Spherical size, negative zeta potential and polydispersity index were in range of 38.25–249.62 nm, 18.18–29.87 mV and 0.11–0.283, respectively. F11, F7 and F3 showed a progressive increase in %DL and %EE with increased concentration of the cellular lysate (100% > 50% > 10%). The drug release was relatively extended over 48 h as compared to drug solution (96.64% release within 5 h). The hemolysis result ensured hemocompatibility (<14%) at the explored concentration. The biogenic F11 was more cytotoxic (81.99% inhibition by F11 and 72.04% by pure 5-FU) to the MCF-7 cell lines as compared to others which may be attributed to the preferential accumulation by the tumor cell and capped albumin as the source of energy to the cancer cells. Finally, GastroPlus® predicted the key factors responsible for improved pharmacokinetics parameters and regional absorption from various segments of human intestine. Thus, the approach can be more efficacious and suitable to control breast cancer when administered transdermally or orally.

Abstract
Resveratrol, a polyphenolic and biocompatible molecule, exhibits significant pharmacological effects but has poor bioavailability and metabolic stability. It appears in two isomeric forms trans-(E)-resveratrol (tRes) and cis-(Z)-resveratrol (cRes). Many pharmacological activities studied so far are of tRes and is the most stable, predominant, and natural form. cRes is not commercially available due to difficulty in its purification and hence not explored much for its biological activities. Therefore, our study focuses on investigating the stability and therapeutic potential of cRes through its bio-conjugation to nanomaterial. In this study, tRes reduces gold ions to gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and itself gets oxidized to its isomeric form cRes. The isomeric switching was evidenced through cRes characteristic spectral differences and chromatographic elution pattern. The monodispersed GNPs of 25.6 ± 0.4 nm size was formed having zeta potential of -19 ± 3.82 mV confirming it to be a stable formulation. The stability studies were further extended to be tested under different physiological fluids. The cRes loaded GNPs (cRGNPs) reflecting the biological activity of cRes presented equivalent antioxidant property to that of tRes even at low concentrations. Also, cRGNPs showed the hemocompatibility by presenting no hemotoxicity and simultaneous in vitro anti-hemolytic activity. Therefore, the stability provided to cRes upon conjugating to GNPs can further be exploited to study the biological activities of cRes through its nano-conjugated delivery.

Abstract
Metal-based nanoparticles have been extensively investigated for a set of biomedical applications. According to the World Health Organization, in addition to their reduced size and selectivity for bacteria, metal-based nanoparticles have also proved to be effective against pathogens listed as a priority. Metal-based nanoparticles are known to have non-specific bacterial toxicity mechanisms (they do not bind to a specific receptor in the bacterial cell) which not only makes the development of resistance by bacteria difficult, but also broadens the spectrum of antibacterial activity. As a result, a large majority of metal-based nanoparticles efficacy studies performed so far have shown promising results in both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The aim of this review has been a comprehensive discussion of the state of the art on the use of the most relevant types of metal nanoparticles employed as antimicrobial agents. A special emphasis to silver nanoparticles is given, while others (e.g., gold, zinc oxide, copper, and copper oxide nanoparticles) commonly used in antibiotherapy are also reviewed. The novelty of this review relies on the comparative discussion of the different types of metal nanoparticles, their production methods, physicochemical characterization, and pharmacokinetics together with the toxicological risk encountered with the use of different types of nanoparticles as antimicrobial agents. Their added-value in the development of alternative, more effective antibiotics against multi-resistant Gram-negative bacteria has been highlighted.

Multifunctional CuO nanoparticles with cytotoxic effects on KYSE30 esophageal cancer cells, antimicrobial and heavy metal sensing activities. Life Sci 2019; 234:116758. [PMID: 31421083 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2019.116758] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2019] [Revised: 08/04/2019] [Accepted: 08/12/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
In this work, fluorescent copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) were green synthesized using viable cells, cell lysate supernatant (CLS) and protein extracts of luminescent Vibrio sp. VLC. Biogenic CuO NPs were then characterized by XRD, FTIR, UV/Vis spectroscopy, TEM, DLS, and PL spectroscopy. Results showed that CLS method was more efficient for CuO NPs production, therefore CuO NPs synthesized by this method from copper sulfate (CuO NPs-1) and/or copper nitrate (CuO NPs-2) were used for further studies. The crystallite size of polydispersed CuO NPs-1 and CuO NPs-2 were about 8.83 and 8.77 nm, respectively indicating their suitability for biological applications. Antibacterial activity of CuO NPs was determined using broth microdilution, well diffusion agar, and time-kill curves methods. Both CuO NP-1 and CuO NP-2 inhibited bacterial growth at the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 625 mg/L except St. mutants (MIC = 1250 mg/L). Emission of fluorescent light from the surface of NPs was increased when exposed to Cd2+, As2+ and Hg2+ ions but decreased by Pb2+ ions. Results showed that CuO NP-1 had anticancer properties against KYSE30 esophageal cancer cell line (IC50 = 13.96 mg/L) while no higher cytotoxic effects were observed on Human Dermal Fibroblasts (HDF) (IC50 = 48.88 mg/L).

Abstract
Synergistic effects of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) with commonly used antibiotics have encouraged the exploration of novel biological entities, including bacteria and weed plants. The present study for the first time reports the capability of an extracellular fraction of Bacillus sp. isolated from effluents of a glass-manufacturing unit to biosynthesis silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) without hazardous materials. Besides, the biosynthesis of AgNPs using an aqueous extract of herbaceous weed plant (Amaranthus sp.), as a low-cost natural source, has been addressed in this study. Our findings confirmed the fabrication of microbial and plant-sourced AgNPs, being thoroughly characterized by UV-vis, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, dynamic light scattering, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and zeta potential measurements. Further, biological activities of the plant- and bacterium-derived AgNPs were investigated against several pathogenic bacteria, in combination with streptomycin. The antibacterial effectiveness of the antibiotic coated with 400 µg/disk of AgNPs increased over 50% toward all the pathogenic bacteria. The data presented here demonstrate that both industrial wastewater-adapted Bacillus sp. and wild-growing Amaranthus sp. are efficient natural sources with excellent capabilities for creating biologically active AgNPs, which would be of considerable interest for circumventing bacterial resistance to current antibiotics.

Abstract
Industrial use of nanotechnology in daily life has produced an emphasis on the safe and efficient production of nanoparticles (NPs). Traditional chemical oxidation and reduction methods are seen as inefficient, environmentally unsound, and often dangerous to those exposed and involved in NP manufacturing. However, utilizing microorganisms for biosynthesis of NPs allows efficient green production of a range of inorganic NPs, while maintaining specific size, shape, stability, and dispersity. Microorganisms living under harsh environmental conditions, called "Extremophiles," are one group of microorganisms being utilized for this biosynthesis. Extremophiles' unique living conditions have endowed them with various processes that enable NP biosynthesis. This includes a range of extremophiles: thermophiles, acidophilus, halophiles, psychrophiles, anaerobes, and some others. Fungi, bacteria, yeasts, and archaea, i.e. Ureibacillus thermosphaericus, and Geobacillus stearothermophilus, among others, have been established for NP biosynthesis. This article highlights the extremophiles and methods found to be viable candidates for the production of varying types of NPs, as well as interpreting selective methods used by the organisms to synthesize NPs.

Abstract
Applications of nanotechnology and nano-science have ever-expanding breakthroughs in medicine, agriculture and industries in recent years; therefore, synthesis of metals nanoparticle (NP) has special significance. Synthesis of NPs by chemical methods are long, costly and hazardous for environment so biosynthesis has been developing interest for researchers. In this regard, the extracellular biosynthesis of gold nanotriangles (AuNTs) performed by use of the soil Streptomycetes. Streptomycetes isolated from rice fields of Guilan Province, Iran, showed biosynthetic activity for producing AuNTs via in vitro experiments. Among all 15 Streptomyces spp. isolates, isolate No. 5 showed high biosynthesis activity. To determine the bacterium taxonomical identity at genus level, its colonies characterised morphologically by use of scanning electron microscope. The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) molecular analysis of active isolate represented its identity partially. In this regard, 16S rRNA gene of the isolate was amplified using universal bacterial primers FD1 and RP2. The PCR products were purified and sequenced. Sequence analysis of 16S rDNA was then conducted using National Center for Biotechnology Information Basic Local Alignment Search Tool method. The AuNTs obtained were characterised by ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy analyses. The authors results indicated that Streptomyces microflavus isolate 5 bio-synthesises extracellular AuNTs in the range of 10-100 nm. Synthesised SNPs size ranged from 10 to 100 nm. In comparison with chemical methods for synthesis of metal NPs, the biosynthesis of AuNTs by Streptomyces source is a fast, simple and eco-friendly method. The isolate is a good candidate for further investigations to optimise its production efficacy for further industrial goals in biosynthesis of AuNTs.

Abstract
The study highlights the synthesis of gold nanoparticles and silver nanoparticles by fresh leaves of Panax ginseng, an herbal medicinal plant. The reduction of auric chloride and silver nitrate led to the formation of gold and silver nanoparticles within 3 and 45 min, at 80°C, respectively. The developed methodology was rapid, facile, ecofriendly and the utmost significant is quite economical, which did not require subsequent processing for reduction or stabilization of nanoparticles. The nanoparticles were further characterized by Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis) which showed the relevant peak for gold and silver nanoparticles at 578 and 420 nm, correspondingly. Field-emission transmission electron microscopy (FE-TEM) displayed the spherical shape of monodispersed nanoparticles. FE-TEM revealed that the gold nanoparticles were 10-20 nm and silver nanoparticles were 5-15 nm. The energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) and elemental mapping results indicated the maximum distribution of gold and silver elements in the respective nanoproducts, which further corresponds the purity. Further, the X-ray diffraction (XRD) results confirm the crystalline nature of synthesized nanoparticles. The biosynthesized AgNPs served as an efficient antimicrobial agent at 3 μg concentration against many pathogenic strains for instance, Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus anthracis and Bacillus cereus. In addition, AgNPs showed complete inhibition of biofilm formation by S. aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa at 4 μg/ml concentration. Moreover, the AuNPs and AgNPs found as a potent anticoagulant agent. Thus, the study claims the rapid synthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles by fresh P. ginseng leaf extract and its biological applications.
