Article Abstract

A new metabolite, cyclic dipeptide, cis-(3S,8aS)-3-(3,4-dihydroxybenzyl)hexahydropyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-1,4-dione, named JS-3 was isolated from Streptomyces sp. 8812 fermentation broth. Its chemical structure was established by means of spectroscopic analysis. A wide-range-screening study, which included inhibition assay of DD-carboxypeptidase/transpeptidase activity, determination of antibacterial, antifungal, and antiproliferative activities as well as free-radical scavenging was performed. To authors knowledge, this is the first isolation of such compound from natural sources and the first one from bacteria, Streptomyces.

SbhR, a DeoR family regulator, modulates secondary metabolism via the atypical two-component system AtcK/R in Streptomyces bingchenggensis.

DeoR family transcriptional regulators are widely distributed in Streptomyces genomes, but their precise functions and regulatory mechanisms in secondary metabolite biosynthesis remain poorly understood. In Streptomyces bingchenggensis, an industrial producer of milbemycins and nanchangmycin, we identified the DeoR-type regulator SbhR as a key regulator of the atypical two-component system AtcK/R. CRISPR interference-mediated inhibition of sbhR significantly decreased milbemycin production but enhanced nanchangmycin production.

The Effects of a High Concentration of Dissolved Oxygen on Actinobacteria from Lake Baikal.

Metabolites

July 2023

Laboratory of Experimental Neurophysiology, Department for Research and Development, Irkutsk State University, 1 Karl Marx Str., 664003 Irkutsk, Russia.

Among the diversity of microorganisms, the rarest and least explored are microorganisms that live in conditions of high oxygen in the environment and can experience the effects of natural oxidative stress. Here we suggest that the actinobacteria of Lake Baikal, sampled in the littoral zone, may produce natural products with antioxidant activity. The current study aimed to assess the effects of experimentally increased amounts of oxygen and ozone on the morphology of actinobacteria, DNA mutations, and antioxidant potential.

For many years, garlic has been used as a condiment in food and traditional medicine. However, the garlic skin, which accounts for 25% of the garlic bulk, is considered agricultural waste. In this study, cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and garlic extract (GE) from garlic skin were isolated and used as fillers to manufacture biocomposite films.
