Abstract
Despite significant improvements in vaccines and chemotherapeutic drugs, pathogenic RNA viruses continue to have a profound impact on the global economy and pose a serious threat to animal and human health through emerging and re-emerging outbreaks of diseases. To overcome the challenge of viral adaptation and evolution, increased vigilance is required. Particularly, antiviral drugs derived from new, natural sources provide an attractive strategy for controlling problematic viral diseases. In this antiviral study, we discovered a previously unknown bacterium, Mameliella sp. M20D2D8, by conducting an antiviral screening of marine microorganisms. An extract from M20D2D8 exhibited antiviral activity with low cytotoxicity and was found to be effective in vitro against multiple influenza virus strains: A/PR8 (IC50 = 2.93 µg/mL, SI = 294.85), A/Phil82 (IC50 = 1.42 µg/mL, SI = 608.38), and B/Yamagata (IC50 = 1.59 µg/mL, SI = 543.33). The antiviral action was found to occur in the post-entry stages of viral replication and to suppress viral replication by inducing apoptosis in infected cells. Moreover, it efficiently suppressed viral genome replication, protein synthesis, and infectivity in MDCK and A549 cells. Our findings highlight the antiviral capabilities of a novel marine bacterium, which could potentially be useful in the development of drugs for controlling viral diseases.

Mar Drugs 2024; 22:36. [PMID: 38248661 PMCID: PMC10817584 DOI: 10.3390/md22010036] [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: 11/09/2023] [Revised: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 12/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Phycosphere niches host rich microbial consortia that harbor dynamic algae-bacteria interactions with fundamental significance in varied natural ecosystems. Hence, culturing the uncultured microbial majority of the phycosphere microbiota is vital for deep understanding of the intricate mechanisms governing the dynamic interactions, and also to provide novel and rich microbial resources, and to discover new natural bioactive metabolites. Synechococcus elongatus PCC 7942 is a robust model cyanobacterium widely used in environment, synthesis biology, and biotechnology research. To expand the number of novel phycosphere species that were brought into culture and to discover the natural bioactivities, we presented a new yellow-pigmented bacterium named ABI-127-1, which was recovered from the phycosphere of PCC 7942, using an optimized bacterial isolation procedure. Combined polyphasic taxonomic and phylogenomic characterization was performed to confidently identify the new isolate as a potential novel species belonging to the genus Qipengyuania. The observed bioactivity of strain ABI-127-1 with promoting potential towards the growth and CO2 fixation efficiency of the host microalgae was measured. Additionally, the bacterial production of active bioflocculant exopolysaccharides was evaluated after culture optimization. Thus, these findings revealed the potential environmental and biotechnological implications of this new microalgae growth-promoting bacterium isolated from the phycosphere microenvironment.

FEMS Microbiol Rev 2023; 47:fuad005. [PMID: 36882224 PMCID: PMC10045912 DOI: 10.1093/femsre/fuad005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 02/10/2023] [Accepted: 02/15/2023] [Indexed: 03/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Corals live in a complex, multipartite symbiosis with diverse microbes across kingdoms, some of which are implicated in vital functions, such as those related to resilience against climate change. However, knowledge gaps and technical challenges limit our understanding of the nature and functional significance of complex symbiotic relationships within corals. Here, we provide an overview of the complexity of the coral microbiome focusing on taxonomic diversity and functions of well-studied and cryptic microbes. Mining the coral literature indicate that while corals collectively harbour a third of all marine bacterial phyla, known bacterial symbionts and antagonists of corals represent a minute fraction of this diversity and that these taxa cluster into select genera, suggesting selective evolutionary mechanisms enabled these bacteria to gain a niche within the holobiont. Recent advances in coral microbiome research aimed at leveraging microbiome manipulation to increase coral's fitness to help mitigate heat stress-related mortality are discussed. Then, insights into the potential mechanisms through which microbiota can communicate with and modify host responses are examined by describing known recognition patterns, potential microbially derived coral epigenome effector proteins and coral gene regulation. Finally, the power of omics tools used to study corals are highlighted with emphasis on an integrated host-microbiota multiomics framework to understand the underlying mechanisms during symbiosis and climate change-driven dysbiosis.
