Abstract
Plant parasitic nematodes (PPNs) are highly destructive and difficult to control, while conventional chemical nematicides are highly toxic and cause serious environmental pollution. Additionally, resistance to existing pesticides is becoming increasingly common. Biological control is the most promising method for the controlling of PPNs. Therefore, the screening of nematicidal microbial resources and the identification of natural products are of great significance and urgency for the environmentally friendly control of PPNs. In this study, the DT10 strain was isolated from wild moss samples and identified as Streptomyces sp. by morphological and molecular analysis. Using Caenorhabditis elegans as a model, the extract of DT10 was screened for nematicidal activity, which elicited 100% lethality. The active compound was isolated from the extracts of strain DT10 using silica gel column chromatography and semipreparative high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The compound was identified as spectinabilin (chemical formula C28H31O6N) using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Spectinabilin exhibited a good nematicidal activity on C. elegans L1 worms, with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 2.948 μg/mL at 24 h. The locomotive ability of C. elegans L4 worms was significantly reduced when treated with 40 μg/mL spectinabilin. Further analysis of spectinabilin against known nematicidal drug target genes in C. elegans showed that it acts via target(s) different from those of some currently used nematicidal drugs such as avermectin and phosphine thiazole. This is the first report on the nematicidal activity of spectinabilin on C. elegans and the southern root-knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita. These findings may pave the way for further research and application of spectinabilin as a potential biological nematicide.

Abstract
Background Nematodes are parasitic animals that cause over 100 billion US dollars loss in agricultural business. The whole-genomes of two Streptomyces strains, Streptomyces spectabilis KCTC9218T and Streptomyces sp. AN091965, were sequenced. Both strains produce spectinabilin, an antinematode drug. Its secondary metabolism was examined to aid the development of an efficient nematicidal drug-producing host strain. Results The whole-genome sequences of S. spectabilis KCTC9218T and Streptomyces sp. AN091965 were analyzed using PacBio and Illumina sequencing platforms, and assembled using hybrid methodology. The total contig lengths for KCTC9218T and AN091965 were 9.97 Mb and 9.84 Mb, respectively. A total of 8,374 and 8,054 protein-coding genes, as well as 39 and 45 secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters were identified in KCTC9218T and AN091965, respectively. 18.4 ± 6.45 mg/L and 213.89 ± 21.30 mg/L of spectinabilin were produced by S. spectabilis KCTC9218T and Streptomyces sp. AN091965, respectively. Pine wilt disease caused by nematode was successfully prevented by lower concentration of spectinabilin injection than that of abamectin recommended by its manufacturer. Production of multiple antinematode drugs, including spectinabilin, streptorubin B, and undecylprodigiosin was observed in both strains using high-resolution liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC–MS) analysis. Conclusions Whole-genome sequencing of spectinabilin-producing strains, coupled with bioinformatics and mass spectrometry analyses, revealed the production of multiple nematicidal drugs in the KCTC9218T and AN091965 strains. Especially, Streptomyces sp. AN091965 showed high production level of spectinabilin, and this study provides crucial information for the development of potential nematicidal drug producers.

Abstract
Dengue virus (DENV), a mosquito-borne member of the family Flaviviridae, is a significant global pathogen affecting primarily tropical and subtropical regions of the world and placing tremendous burden on the limited medical infrastructure that exists in many of the developing countries located within these regions. Recent outbreaks in developed countries, including Australia (Hanna et al., 2009), France (La Ruche et al., 2010), Taiwan (Kuan et al., 2010), and the USA (CDC, 2010), lead many researchers to believe that continued emergence into more temperate latitudes is likely. A primary concern is that there are no approved vaccines or antiviral therapies to treat DENV infections. Since the viral NS2B-NS3 protease (DENV NS2B-NS3pro) is required for virus replication, it provides a strategic target for the development of antiviral drugs. In this study, proof-of-concept high-throughput screenings (HTSs) were performed to unambiguously identify dengue 2 virus (DEN2V) NS2B-NS3pro inhibitors from a library of 2000 compounds. Validation screens were performed in parallel to concurrently eliminate insoluble, auto-fluorescing, and/or nonspecific inhibitors. Kinetic analyses of the hits revealed that parallel substrate fluorophore (AMC) interference controls and trypsin inhibition controls were able to reduce false positive rates due to solubility and fluorophore interference while the trypsin inhibition control additionally eliminated non-specific inhibitors. We identified five DEN2V NS2B-NS3pro inhibitors that also inhibited the related West Nile virus (WNV) protease (NS2B-NS3pro), but did not inhibit the trypsin protease. Biochemical analyses revealed various mechanisms of inhibition including competitive and mixed noncompetitive inhibition, with the lowest K(i) values being 12±1.5 μM for DEN2V NS2B-NS3pro and 2±0.2 μM for WNV NS2B-NS3pro.

Abstract
Gramicidin S and polymyxins are small cationic cyclic peptides and act as potent antibiotics against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria by perturbing integrity of the bacterial membranes. Screening of a natural antibiotics library with bacterial membrane vesicles identified gramicidin S as an inhibitor of cytochrome bd quinol oxidase and an alternative NADH dehydrogenase (NDH-2) and polymyxin B as an inhibitor of NDH-2 and malate: quinone oxidoreductase. Our studies showed that cationic cyclic peptide antibiotics have novel molecular targets in the membrane and interfere ligand binding on the hydrophobic surface of enzymes. Improvement of the toxicity and optimization of the structures and clinical uses are urgently needed for their effective application in combating drug-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
A variety of peptides have been detected in microorganisms. Some have found applications in various fields, for example the classical beta-lactam antibiotics, immunosuppressors like cyclosporin, promising new antibacterials like teichoplanin or daptomycin and antifungals like echinocandin. For none of these has it been established how their complicated biosynthetic pathways have evolved or what functions they fulfill within or for their producers. So it is unclear what selection processes limit the range of their structural analogues within various groups of microorganisms. We here consider recent data in the field of biosynthesis and how they may suggest mechanisms of genetic diversity. These may illustrate the complexity of genetic and intracellular organization of biosynthetic pathways and indicate the cellular context of some metabolites related to the complex background of the production of each metabolite. Research focusing on various targets like the increase of productivity of fermentations or the spread of resistances to antibacterials is slowly being understood.

Abstract
Three Streptomyces isolates were identified as producing macrolide antibiotics of the bafilomycin or leucanicidin types during an evaluation of Australian actinomyces for the production of inhibitors of larval development in the parasitic nematode, Haemonchus contortus. Bafilomycins A1, B1, C1, and D were obtained from culture A239 and the 2-O-methyl-L-rhamnosyl derivative of bafilomycin A1, leucanicidin, from cultures A223 and A240. All these 'bafilolides' gave similar patterns of inhibition typified by an initial paralysis of newly hatched L1 larvae and a lethal toxicity within 24 h. LD50 values for inhibition of larval development of McMaster H. contortus ranged from 0.23 micrograms ml-1 for leucanicidin to 2.5 micrograms ml-1 for bafilomycin D. The bafilolides had broad spectrum nematocidal activity, being equi-potent as inhibitors of H. contortus, Trichostrongylus colubriformis and Ostertagia circumcincta larval development. Further, all bafilolides caused some inhibition of H. contortus L3 motility, with the semi-synthetic analogue, bafilomycin B2, the most potent inhibitor (LP50 against McMaster H. contortus 1.9 microgram ml-1). Nematode strains resistant to the known benzimidazole, levamisole and avermectin anthelmintics showed no cross resistance to the bafilolides, supporting the hypothesis that the bafilolides act by an independent mechanism.

Abstract
If we include beta-lactam antibiotics on the grounds that they have the same biosynthetic origin, peptides remain commercially the most important group of pharmaceuticals. However, our increasing knowledge of the genetic and enzymic background to biosynthesis, and of the regulation of metabolite production, will eventually bring a more unified approach to bioactive compounds. Mixing of structural types will become important, and we will be able to use our knowledge of biosynthetic genes and their regulatory networks. We will also benefit from an appreciation of the modular organization of catalytic functions, substrate transfer mechanisms and signalling between interacting enzymes. Since all of this is, in fact, the basis for enzymic synthesis of complex natural products in vivo, the exploitation of living cells requires mastery of a formidable network of cellular controls and compartments. For the present we are able to see fascinating connections emerging between genes in a variety of reaction sequences, not only in biosynthetic but also in degradative pathways. Peptide synthetases show surprising similarities to acylcoenzyme A synthetases, which are key enzymes in forming polyketides as well as in generating the CoA-derivatives that serve as substrates in degradative pathways. 4'-Phosphopantetheine, the functional half of CoA, plays a key role as the intrinsic transfer cofactor in various multienzyme systems. The comparatively small catalogue of reactions modifying natural products, notably epimerization, methylation, hydroxylation, decarboxylation (of peptides) and reduction/dehydration (of polyketides) can be found within or amongst biosynthetic proteins, generally as modules and organized in a specified order. The biochemist is coming close to the synthetic chemist's recipes, and may soon be recruiting proteins to carry them out.

Abstract
The study of antibiotics and other fermentation products has shown that a seemingly unlimited number of compounds with diverse structures are produced by microorganisms. The continued high rate of discovery of new chemical entities, in the light of the abundance of microbial products already described, is due to creative screening procedures that incorporate such features as the emphasis on unusual microorgnaisms, their special propagation and fermentation requirements, supersensitive and highly selective assays, genetic engineering both for the biosynthesis of new compounds and in the development of screening systems, early in vivo evaluation, improved isolation techniques, modern procedures for structure determination, computer-assisted identification, and an efficient multidisciplinary approach. This review focuses on the genesis and development of the gamut of methodologies that have led to the successful detection of the wide variety of novel secondary metabolites that include antibacterial, antigungal, antiviral and antitumour antibiotics, enzyme inhibitors, pharmacologically and immunologically active agents, products useful in agriculture and animal husbandry, microbial regulators, and other compounds for which no bioactive role has yet been found.
