Abstract
The significance and frequency of marine microorganisms as producers of bioactive metabolites-a natural source of drug discovery had varied significantly during the last decades, making marine ecosystem a huge treasure trove of novel isolates and novel compounds. Among the twelve actinomycetes isolated from marine sediment sample (Lat. 17°41'962″N, Long. 83°19'633″E), amylase, protease, lipase and cellulase activities were exhibited by 8,7,4,3 isolates respectively. Five isolates exhibited l-asparaginase activity, while 5, 6, 2 isolates exhibited antibacterial, antifungal and antimicrobial activities respectively. One isolate VMS-A10 efficiently producing alpha-amylase (25.53 ± 0.50 U/mL), protease (19.26 ± 0.25 U/mL), lipase (36.25 ± 0.10 U/mL), cellulase (14.43 ± 0.513 U/mL), l-asparaginase (0.125 ± 0.004 U/mL), antimicrobial metabolites against B. subtilis (503.33 ± 5.77 U/mL), S. aureus (536.66 ± 5.77 U/mL), E. coli (533.33 ± 5.77 U/mL), P. aeruginosa (500.00 ± 10.0 U/mL), MRSA (538.33 ± 5.77 U/mL), C. albicans (353.33 ± 11.54 U/mL) and A. niger (443.33 ± 15.27 U/mL) was selected, identified on the basis of morphological, cultural, physiological, and biochemical properties together with 16S rDNA sequence, designated as Streptomyces parvulus strain sankarensis-A10 and sequencing product (1490 bp) was deposited in the GenBank database under accession number KT906299, Culture Deposit No: NCIM-5601. Isolation and characterization of each potential actinobacteria having immense industrial and therapeutic value on an unprecedented scale from marine sediments of Visakhapatnam coast will have a burgeoning effect.
