Bach E, Chen J, Angolini CFF, Bauer JS, Gross H, Passaglia LMP. Genome-guided purification of high amounts of the siderophore ornibactin and detection of potentially novel burkholdine derivatives produced by Burkholderia catarinensis 89T. J Appl Microbiol 2024; 135:lxae040. [PMID: 38364306 DOI: 10.1093/jambio/lxae040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2023] [Revised: 01/13/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/18/2024]
Abstract
AIM The increased availability of genome sequences has enabled the development of valuable tools for the prediction and identification of bacterial natural products. Burkholderia catarinensis 89T produces siderophores and an unknown potent antifungal metabolite. The aim of this work was to identify and purify natural products of B. catarinensis 89T through a genome-guided approach. MATERIALS AND METHODS The analysis of B. catarinensis 89T genome revealed 16 clusters putatively related to secondary metabolism and antibiotics production. Of particular note was the identification of a nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) cluster related to the production of the siderophore ornibactin, a hybrid NRPS-polyketide synthase Type 1 cluster for the production of the antifungal glycolipopeptide burkholdine, and a gene cluster encoding homoserine lactones (HSL), probably involved in the regulation of both metabolites. We were able to purify high amounts of the ornibactin derivatives D/C6 and F/C8, while also detecting the derivative B/C4 in mass spectrometry investigations. A group of metabolites with molecular masses ranging from 1188 to 1272 Da could be detected in MS experiments, which we postulate to be new burkholdine analogs produced by B. catarinensis. The comparison of B. catarinensis BGCs with other Bcc members corroborates the hypothesis that this bacterium could produce new derivatives of these metabolites. Moreover, the quorum sensing metabolites C6-HSL, C8-HSL, and 3OH-C8-HSL were observed in LC-MS/MS analysis. CONCLUSION The new species B. catarinensis is a potential source of new bioactive secondary metabolites. Our results highlight the importance of genome-guided purification and identification of metabolites of biotechnological importance.

Abstract
Burkholderia is a versatile strain that has expanded into several genera. It has been steadily reported that the genome features of Burkholderia exhibit activities ranging from plant growth promotion to pathogenicity across various isolation areas. The objective of this study was to investigate the secondary metabolite patterns of 366 Burkholderia species through comparative genomics. Samples were selected based on assembly quality assessment and similarity below 80% in average nucleotide identity. Duplicate samples were excluded. Samples were divided into two groups using FastANI analysis. Group A included B. pseudomallei complex. Group B included B. cepacia complex. The limitations of MLST were proposed. The detection of genes was performed, including environmental and virulence-related genes. In the pan-genome analysis, each complex possessed a similar pattern of cluster for orthologous groups. Group A (n = 185) had 14,066 cloud genes, 2,465 shell genes, 682 soft-core genes, and 2,553 strict-core genes. Group B (n = 181) had 39,867 cloud genes, 4,986 shell genes, 324 soft-core genes, 222 core genes, and 2,949 strict-core genes. AntiSMASH was employed to analyze the biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC). The results were then utilized for network analysis using BiG-SCAPE and CORASON. Principal component analysis was conducted and a table was constructed using the results obtained from antiSMASH. The results were divided into Group A and Group B. We expected the various species to show similar patterns of secondary metabolite gene clusters. For in-depth analysis, a network analysis of secondary metabolite gene clusters was conducted, exemplified by BiG-SCAPE analysis. Depending on the species and complex, Burkholderia possessed several kinds of siderophore. Among them, ornibactin was possessed in most Burkholderia and was clustered into 4,062 clans. There was a similar pattern of gene clusters depending on the species. NRPS_04014 belonged to siderophore BGCs including ornibactin and indigoidine. However, it was observed that each family included a similar species. This suggests that, besides siderophores being species-specific, the ornibactin gene cluster itself might also be species-specific. The results suggest that siderophores are associated with environmental adaptation, possessing a similar pattern of siderophore gene clusters among species, which could provide another perspective on species-specific environmental adaptation mechanisms.

Abstract
The taxonomy of Burkholderia sensu lato (s.l.) has been revisited using genome-based tools, which have helped differentiate closely related species. Many species from this group are indistinguishable through phenotypic traits and 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. Furthermore, they also exhibit whole-genome Average Nucleotide Identity (ANI) values in the twilight zone for species circumscription (95-96%), which may impair their correct classification. In this work, we provided an updated Burkholderia s.l. taxonomy focusing on closely related species and give other recommendations for those developing genome-based taxonomy studies. We showed that a combination of ANI and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) applying the universal cutoff values of 95% and 70%, respectively, successfully discriminates Burkholderia s.l. species. Using genome metrics with this pragmatic criterion, we demonstrated that i) Paraburkholderia insulsa should be considered a later heterotypic synonym of Paraburkholderia fungorum; ii) Paraburkholderia steynii differs from P. terrae by harboring symbiotic genes; iii) some Paraburkholderia are indeed different species based on dDDH values, albeit sharing ANI values close to 95%; iv) some Burkholderia s.l. indeed represent new species from the genomic viewpoint; iv) some genome sequences should be evaluated with care due to quality concerns.

Abstract
Extensive crop losses are caused by oomycete and fungal damping-off diseases. Agriculture relies heavily on chemical pesticides to control disease, but due to safety concerns multiple agents have been withdrawn. Burkholderia were successfully used as commercial biopesticides because of their fungicidal activity and plant protective traits. However, their potential for opportunistic pathogenicity led to a moratorium on their registration as biopesticides. Subsequently, Burkholderia were shown to produce multiple specialised metabolites including potent antimicrobial polyynes. Cepacin A, a polyyne produced by Burkholderia ambifaria biopesticide strains was shown to be an important metabolite for the protection of germinating peas against Globisporangium ultimum (formerly Pythium) damping-off disease. Recently, there has been an expansion in bacterial polyyne discovery, with the metabolites and their biosynthetic gene pathways found in several bacterial genera including Burkholderia, Collimonas, Trinickia, and Pseudomonas. To define the efficacy of these bacterial polyyne producers as biopesticidal agents, we systematically evaluated metabolite production, in vitro microbial antagonism, and G. ultimum biocontrol across a panel of 30 strains representing four bacterial genera. In vitro polyyne production and antimicrobial activity was demonstrated for most strains, but only Burkholderia polyyne producers were protective within the in vivo G. ultimum damping-off pea protection model. B. ambifaria was the most effective cepacin-expressing biopesticide, and despite their known potential for plant pathogenicity Burkholderia gladioli and Burkholderia plantarii were uniquely shown to be protective as caryoynencin-producing biopesticides. In summary, Burkholderia are effective biopesticides due to their suite of antimicrobials, but the ability to deploy polyyne metabolites, caryoynencin and cepacin, is strain and species dependent.

Identification of two distinct phylogenomic lineages and model strains for the understudied cystic fibrosis lung pathogen Burkholderia multivorans. MICROBIOLOGY (READING, ENGLAND) 2023; 169:001366.

Abstract
Burkholderia multivorans is the dominant Burkholderia pathogen recovered from lung infection in people with cystic fibrosis. However, as an understudied pathogen there are knowledge gaps in relation to its population biology, phenotypic traits and useful model strains. A phylogenomic study of B. multivorans was undertaken using a total of 283 genomes, of which 73 were sequenced and 49 phenotypically characterized as part of this study. Average nucleotide identity analysis (ANI) and phylogenetic alignment of core genes demonstrated that the B. multivorans population separated into two distinct evolutionary clades, defined as lineage 1 (n=58 genomes) and lineage 2 (n=221 genomes). To examine the population biology of B. multivorans, a representative subgroup of 77 B. multivorans genomes (28 from the reference databases and the 49 novel short-read genome sequences) were selected based on multilocus sequence typing (MLST), isolation source and phylogenetic placement criteria. Comparative genomics was used to identify B. multivorans lineage-specific genes - ghrB_1 in lineage 1 and glnM_2 in lineage 2 - and diagnostic PCRs targeting them were successfully developed. Phenotypic analysis of 49 representative B. multivorans strains showed considerable inter-strain variance, but the majority of the isolates tested were motile and capable of biofilm formation. A striking absence of B. multivorans protease activity in vitro was observed, but no lineage-specific phenotypic differences were demonstrated. Using phylogenomic and phenotypic criteria, three model B. multivorans CF strains were identified, BCC0084 (lineage 1), BCC1272 (lineage 2a) and BCC0033 lineage 2b, and their complete genome sequences determined. B. multivorans CF strains BCC0033 and BCC0084, and the environmental reference strain, ATCC 17616, were all capable of short-term survival within a murine lung infection model. By mapping the population biology, identifying lineage-specific PCRs and model strains, we provide much needed baseline resources for future studies of B. multivorans.

Abstract
Two putative novel Burkholderia cenocepacia lineages found in the semi-arid region of north-east Brazil causing onion sour skin were studied using genomic approaches to determine their taxonomic position. Four strains belonging to one novel lineage (CCRMBC16, CCRMBC33, CCRMBC74, and CCRMBC171) and one strain (CCRMBC51) belonging to another novel lineage had their whole genome sequenced to carry out taxogenomic analyses. The phylogenomic tree built using the type (strain) genome server (TYGS) clustered the strains CCRMBC16, CCRMBC33, CCRMBC74, and CCRMBC171 into the same clade, while grouped the strain CCRMBC51 separately. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) analysis showed values above 99.21 % and 93.2 %, respectively, among the strains CCRMBC16, CCRMBC33, CCRMBC74, and CCRMBC171, while ANI and dDDH values between these strains and the strain CCRMBC51 were below 94.49 % and 56.6 %, respectively. All these strains showed ANI and dDDH values below 94.78 % and 58.8 % concerning type strains of the B. cepacia complex (Bcc) species. The phylogenetic maximum likelihood tree constructed based on the multilocus sequence analysis of core genes (cMLSA) clustered the strains CCRMBC16, CCRMBC33, CCRMBC74, and CCRMBC171 and the strain CCRMBC51 in two exclusive clades, which did not cluster with any known species of the Bcc. Therefore, combined data from TYGS, ANI, dDDH, and cMLSA demonstrated that the strains represent two novel species of the Bcc, which we classified as Burkholderia semiarida sp. nov. and Burkholderia sola sp. nov., and proposed the strains CCRMBC74T (=IBSBF 3371 T = CBAS 905 T) and CCRMBC51T (=IBSBF3370T = CBAS 904 T) as type strains, respectively.

Abstract
Due to the increase in multidrug-resistant microorganisms, the investigation of novel or more efficient antimicrobial compounds is essential. The World Health Organization issued a list of priority multidrug-resistant bacteria whose eradication will require new antibiotics. Among them, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacteriaceae are in the "critical" (most urgent) category. As a result, major investigations are ongoing worldwide to discover new antimicrobial compounds. Burkholderia, specifically Burkholderia sensu stricto, is recognized as an antimicrobial-producing group of species. Highly dissimilar compounds are among the molecules produced by this genus, such as those that are unique to a particular strain (like compound CF66I produced by Burkholderia cepacia CF-66) or antimicrobials found in a number of species, e.g., phenazines or ornibactins. The compounds produced by Burkholderia include N-containing heterocycles, volatile organic compounds, polyenes, polyynes, siderophores, macrolides, bacteriocins, quinolones, and other not classified antimicrobials. Some of them might be candidates not only for antimicrobials for both bacteria and fungi, but also as anticancer or antitumor agents. Therefore, in this review, the wide range of antimicrobial compounds produced by Burkholderia is explored, focusing especially on those compounds that were tested in vitro for antimicrobial activity. In addition, information was gathered regarding novel compounds discovered by genome-guided approaches.

Abstract
Mucoralean fungi from the genus Rhizopus are common inhabitants of terrestrial ecosystems, being some pathogens of animals and plants. In this study, we analyzed the symbiotic and toxinogenic potential of Rhizopus species derived from agricultural soils dedicated to the production of papaya (Carica papaya L.) in Mexico. Four representative strains of soil-derived Rhizopus spp. were analyzed employing molecular, microscopic, and metabolic methods. The ITS phylogenies identified the fungi as Rhizopus microsporus HP499, Rhizopus delemar HP475 and HP479, and Rhizopus homothallicus HP487. We discovered that R. microsporus HP499 and R. delemar HP475 harbor similar endofungal bacterial symbionts that belong to the genus Mycetohabitans (Burkholderia sensu lato) and that none of the four fungi were associated with Narnavirus RmNV-20S and RmNV-23S. Intriguingly, the interaction between R. delemar - Mycetohabitans showed different phenotypes from known R. microsporus - Mycetohabitans symbioses. Elimination of bacteria in R. delemar HP475 did not cause a detrimental effect on fungal growth or asexual reproduction. Moreover, metabolic and molecular analyses confirmed that, unlike symbiotic R. microsporus HP499, R. delemar HP475 does not produce rhizoxin, one of the best-characterized toxins produced by Mycetohabitans spp. The rhizoxin (rhi) biosynthetic gene cluster seems absent in this symbiotic bacterium. Our study highlights that the symbioses between Rhizopus and Mycetohabitans are more diverse than anticipated. Our findings contribute to expanding our understanding of the role bacterial symbionts have in the pathogenicity, biology and evolution of Mucorales.

Abstract
Purpose of Review
People with cystic fibrosis (CF) suffer chronic lung infections with a range of antimicrobial-resistant bacterial pathogens. There is an urgent need for researchers to develop novel anti-infectives to treat these problematic infections, but how can we select bacterial strains which are relevant for robust testing and comparative research?
Recent Findings
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Burkholderia cepacia complex and Burkholderia gladioli, Mycobacterium abscessus complex, Staphylococcus aureus, Haemophilus influenza, and several multidrug-resistant Gram-negative species were selected as key CF infections that urgently require new therapeutics. Reference isolates and strain panels were identified, and a summary of the known genotypic diversity of each pathogen was provided.
Summary
Here, we summarise the current strain resources available for priority CF bacterial pathogens and highlight systematic selection criteria that researchers can use to select strains for use in therapeutic testing.

Abstract
Genome analysis of strains placed in the NCBI genome database as Burkholderia cenocepacia defined nine genomic species groups. The largest group (259 strains) corresponds to B. cenocepacia and the second largest group (58 strains) was identified as "Burkholderia servocepacia", a Burkholderia species classification which has not been validly published. The publication of "B. servocepacia" did not comply with Rule 27 and Recommendation 30 from the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes (ICNP) and have errors in the type strain name and the protologue describing the novel species. Here, we correct the position of this species by showing essential information that meets the criteria defined by ICNP. After additional analysis complying with taxonomic criteria, we propose that the invalid "B. servocepacia" be renamed as Burkholderia orbicola sp. nov. The original study proposing "B. servocepacia" was misleading, because this name derives from the Latin "servo" meaning "to protect/watch over", and the authors proposed this based on the beneficial biocontrol properties of several strains within the group. However, it is clear that "B. servocepacia" isolates are capable of opportunistic infection, and the proposed name Burkholderia orbicola sp. nov. takes into account these diverse phenotypic traits. The type strain is TAtl-371 T (= LMG 30279 T = CM-CNRG 715 T).
