Abstract
Introduction Insights about the effects of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) on the biosynthetic manipulation of unknown microbe secondary metabolites could be a promising technique for prospective research on nano-biotechnology. Aim In this research, we aimed to isolate a fresh, non-domesticated unknown bacterium strain from a common scab of potato crop located in Saudi Arabia and study the metabolic profile. Methodology This was achieved through genomic DNA (gDNA) sequencing using Oxford Nanopore Technology. The genomic data were subjected to several bioinformatics tools, including canu-1.9 software, Prokka, DFAST, Geneious Prime, and AntiSMASH. We exposed the culture of the bacterial isolate with different concentrations of AuNPs and investigated the effects of AuNPs on secondary metabolites biosynthesis using several analytical techniques. Furthermore, Tandem-mass spectrometric (MS/MS) technique was optimized for the characterization of several significant sub-classes. Results The genomic draft sequence assembly, alignment, and annotation have verified the bacterial isolate as Priestia megaterium. This bacterium has secondary metabolites related to different biosynthetic gene clusters. AuNPs intervention showed an increase in the production of compounds with the molecular weights of 254 and 270 Da in a direct-dependent manner with the increase of the AuNPs concentrations. Conclusion The increase in the yields of compound 1 and 2 concomitantly with the increase in the concentration of the added AuNPs provide evidences about the effects of nanoparticles on the biosynthesis of the secondary metabolites. It contributes to the discovery of genes involved in different biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) and prediction of the structures of the natural products.

Abstract
Plant-derived natural active products have attracted increasing attention for use in flavors and perfumes. These compounds also have applications in insect pest control because of their environment-friendly properties. Holy basil (Ocimum sanctum), a famous herb used in Ayurveda in India, is a natural source of medical healing agents and insecticidal repellents. Despite the available genomic sequences and genome-wide bioinformatic analysis of terpene synthase genes, the functionality of the sesquiterpene genes involved in the unique fragrance and insecticidal activities of Holy basil are largely unknown. In this study, we systematically screened the sesquiterpenoid biosynthesis genes in this plant using a precursor-providing yeast system. The enzymes that synthesize β-caryophyllene and its close isomer α-humulene were successfully identified. The enzymatic product of OsaTPS07 was characterized by in vivo mining, in vitro reaction, and NMR detection. This product was revealed as (-)-eremophilene. We created a mutant yeast strain that can achieve a high-yield titer by adjusting the gene copy number and FPP precursor enhancement. An optimized two-stage fed-batch fermentation method achieved high biosynthetic capacity, with a titer of 34.6 g/L cyclic sesquiterpene bioproduction in a 15-L bioreactor. Further insect-repelling assays demonstrated that (-)-eremophilene repelled the insect pest, fall leafworm, suggesting the potential of (-)-eremophilene as an alternative to synthetic chemicals for agricultural pest control. This study highlights the potential of our microbial platform for the bulk mining of plant-derived ingredients and provides an impressive cornerstone for their industrial utilization.

Abstract
Covering: up to mid-2020 Terpenoids, also called isoprenoids, are the largest and most structurally diverse family of natural products. Found in all domains of life, there are over 80 000 known compounds. The majority of characterized terpenoids, which include some of the most well known, pharmaceutically relevant, and commercially valuable natural products, are produced by plants and fungi. Comparatively, terpenoids of bacterial origin are rare. This is counter-intuitive to the fact that recent microbial genomics revealed that almost all bacteria have the biosynthetic potential to create the C5 building blocks necessary for terpenoid biosynthesis. In this review, we catalogue terpenoids produced by bacteria. We collected 1062 natural products, consisting of both primary and secondary metabolites, and classified them into two major families and 55 distinct subfamilies. To highlight the structural and chemical space of bacterial terpenoids, we discuss their structures, biosynthesis, and biological activities. Although the bacterial terpenome is relatively small, it presents a fascinating dichotomy for future research. Similarities between bacterial and non-bacterial terpenoids and their biosynthetic pathways provides alternative model systems for detailed characterization while the abundance of novel skeletons, biosynthetic pathways, and bioactivies presents new opportunities for drug discovery, genome mining, and enzymology.

Abstract
Myxobacteria represent an under-investigated source for biologically active natural products featuring intriguing structural moieties with potential applications, e.g., in the pharmaceutical industry. Sorangiadenosine and the here-discovered 2-hydroxysorangiadenosine are myxobacterial sesquiterpene–nucleosides with an unusual structural moiety, a bicyclic eudesmane-type sesquiterpene. As the biosynthesis of these rare terpene–nucleoside hybrid natural products remains elusive, we investigated secondary metabolomes and genomes of several 2-hydroxysorangiadenosine-producing myxobacteria. We report the isolation and full structure elucidation of 2-hydroxysorangiadenosine and its cytotoxic and antibiotic activities and propose a biosynthetic pathway in the myxobacterium Vitiosangium cumulatum MCy10943T.

Abstract
Two bacterial diterpene synthases (DTSs) from Chryseobacterium were characterised. The first enzyme yielded the new compound chryseodiene that closely resembles the known fusicoccane diterpenes from fungi, but its experimentally and computationally studied cyclisation mechanism is fundamentally different to the mechanism of fusicoccadiene synthase. The second enzyme produced wanjudiene, a diterpene hydrocarbon with a new skeleton, besides traces of the enantiomer of bonnadiene that was recently discovered from Allokutzneria albata.

Abstract
In recognition of many microorganisms ability to produce a variety of secondary metabolites in parallel, Zeeck and coworkers introduced the term "OSMAC" (one strain many compounds) around the turn of the century. Since then, additional efforts focused on the systematic characterization of a single bacterial species ability to form multiple secondary metabolite scaffolds. With the beginning of the genomic era mainly initiated by a dramatic reduction of sequencing costs, investigations of the genome encoded biosynthetic potential and especially the exploitation of biosynthetic gene clusters of undefined function gained attention. This was seen as a novel means to extend range and diversity of bacterial secondary metabolites. Genome analyses showed that even for well-studied bacterial strains, like the myxobacterium Myxococcus xanthus DK1622, many biosynthetic gene clusters are not yet assigned to their corresponding hypothetical secondary metabolites. In contrast to the results from emerging genome and metabolome mining techniques that show the large untapped biosynthetic potential per strain, many newly isolated bacterial species are still used for the isolation of only one target compound class and successively abandoned in the sense that no follow up studies are published from the same species. This work provides an overview about myxobacterial bacterial strains, from which not just one but multiple different secondary metabolite classes were successfully isolated. The underlying methods used for strain prioritization and natural product discovery such as biological characterization of crude extracts against a panel of pathogens, in-silico prediction of secondary metabolite abundance from genome data and state of the art instrumental analytics required for new natural product scaffold discovery in comparative settings are summarized and classified according to their output. Furthermore, for each approach selected studies performed with actinobacteria are shown to underline especially innovative methods used for natural product discovery.

Abstract
Coinciding with the increase in sequenced bacteria, mining of bacterial genomes for biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) has become a critical component of natural product discovery. The order Myxococcales, a reputable source of biologically active secondary metabolites, spans three suborders which all include natural product producing representatives. Utilizing the BiG-SCAPE-CORASON platform to generate a sequence similarity network that contains 994 BGCs from 36 sequenced myxobacteria deposited in the antiSMASH database, a total of 843 BGCs with lower than 75% similarity scores to characterized clusters within the MIBiG database are presented. This survey provides the biosynthetic diversity of these BGCs and an assessment of the predicted chemical space yet to be discovered. Considering the mere snapshot of myxobacteria included in this analysis, these untapped BGCs exemplify the potential for natural product discovery from myxobacteria.

Abstract
Eremophilanes are sesquiterpenes with a rearranged carbon skeleton formed both by plants and fungi, however, almost no plant eremophilanes are found in fungi. These eremophilanes possess mainly phytotoxic, antimicrobial, anticancer and immunomodulatory properties and in this review fungal eremophilanes with bioactivities of potential medicinal applications are reviewed and discussed. A special focus is set on natural products bearing highly functionalized fatty acids at C-1 or C-3 position of the eremophilane backbone. Many of these fatty acids seem to contribute to the bioactivity of the metabolites enhancing the activity of the sesquiterpene moieties. Several approaches for optimization of these natural products for clinical needs and testing of the resulting derivatives are presented and discussed. The combination of identification of bioactive natural products with their subsequent improvement using a variety of genetical or chemical tools and the pharmacokinetic assessment of the products is presented here as a promising approach to new drugs.

Abstract
The products obtained by incubation of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) with six purified bacterial terpene cyclases were characterised by one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopic methods, allowing for a full structure elucidation. The absolute configurations of four terpenes were determined based on their optical rotary powers. Incubation experiments with 13C-labelled isotopomers of FPP in buffers containing water or deuterium oxide allowed for detailed insights into the cyclisation mechanisms of the bacterial terpene cyclases.

Abstract
Due to their bioactive properties as well as their application as precursors in chemical synthesis, hydroxylated isoprenoids and norisoprenoids are very valuable compounds. The efficient hydroxylation of such compounds remains a challenge in organic chemistry caused by the formation of a variety of side products and lack of overall regio- and stereoselectivity. In contrast, cytochromes P450 are known for their selective oxidation under mild conditions. Here, we demonstrate for the first time the ability of myxobacterial CYP260B1 and CYP267B1 from Sorangium cellulosum So ce56 to oxidize such carotenoid-derived aroma compounds. A focused library of 14 substrates such as ionones, damascones, as well as some of their isomers and derivatives was screened in vitro. Both P450s were capable of an efficient oxidation of all tested compounds. CYP260B1-dependent conversions mainly formed multiple products, whereas conversions by CYP267B1 resulted predominantly in a single product. To identify the main products by NMR spectroscopy, an Escherichia coli-based whole-cell system was used. CYP267B1 showed a hydroxylase activity towards the formation of allylic alcohols. Likewise, CYP260B1 performed the allylic hydroxylation of β-damascone [(E)-1-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-enyl)but-2-en-1-one] and δ-damascone [(E)-1-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-3-enyl)but-2-en-1-one]. Moreover, CYP260B1 showed an epoxidase activity towards β-ionone [(E)-4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-enyl)but-3-en-2-one] as well as the methyl-substituted α-ionone derivatives raldeine [(E)-1-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-2-enyl)pent-1-en-3-one] and isoraldeine [(E)-3-methyl-4-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-2-enyl)but-3-en-2-one]. In addition, to known products, also novel products such as 2-OH-δ-damascone [(E)-1-(5-hydroxy-2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-3-enyl)but-2-en-1-one], 3-OH-allyl-α-ionone [(E)-1-(4-hydroxy-2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-2-enyl)hepta-1,6-dien-3-one], and 4-OH-allyl-β-ionone [(E)-1-(3-hydroxy-2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-1-enyl)hepta-1,6-dien-3-one] were identified during our studies.

Abstract
Since their discovery in the soil bacterium Sorangium cellulosum, epothilones have emerged as a valuable substance class with promising anti-tumor activity. Because of their benefits in the treatment of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, epothilones are targets for drug design and pharmaceutical research. The final step of their biosynthesis – a cytochrome P450 mediated epoxidation of epothilone C/D to A/B by CYP167A1 (EpoK) – needs significant improvement, in particular regarding the efficiency of its redox partners. Therefore, we have investigated the ability of various hetero- and homologous redox partners to transfer electrons to EpoK. Hereby, a new hybrid system was established with conversion rates eleven times higher and Vmax of more than seven orders of magnitudes higher as compared with the previously described spinach redox chain. This hybrid system is the most efficient redox chain for EpoK described to date. Furthermore, P450s from So ce56 were identified which are able to convert epothilone D to 14-OH, 21-OH, 26-OH epothilone D and 7-ketone epothilone D. The latter one represents a novel epothilone derivative and is a suitable candidate for pharmacological tests. The results revealed myxobacterial P450s from S. cellulosum So ce56 as promising candidates for protein engineering for biotechnological production of epothilone derivatives.

Abstract
An uncharacterized terpene cyclase from Streptomyces pratensis was identified as (+)-(1(10)E,4E,6S,7R)-germacradien-6-ol synthase. The enzyme product exists as two interconvertible conformers, resulting in complex NMR spectra. For the complete assignment of NMR data, all fifteen ((13)C1)FPP isotopomers (FPP=farnesyl diphosphate) and ((13)C15)FPP were synthesized and enzymatically converted. The products were analyzed using various NMR techniques, including (13)C, (13)C COSY experiments. The ((13)C)FPP isotopomers were also used to investigate the thermal rearrangement and EI fragmentation of the enzyme product.

Abstract
Here we present the functional characterization of a sesquiterpene cyclase from Kitasatospora setae. The enzyme converts the sesquiterpene precursor farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) into two previously unknown and unstable sesquiterpene ethers for which we propose the trivial names corvol ethers A and B. Both compounds were purified and their structures were determined by one- and two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. A biosynthetic mechanism for the FPP cyclization by the corvol ether synthase was proposed. The results from the incubation experiments of the corvol ether synthase with isotopically labeled precursors were in line with this mechanism, while alternative mechanisms could clearly be ruled out.

Abstract
Human cytochromes P450 (P450s) play a major role in the biotransformation of drugs. The generated metabolites are important for pharmaceutical, medical, and biotechnological applications and can be used for derivatization or toxicological studies. The availability of human drug metabolites is restricted and alternative ways of production are requested. For this, microbial P450s turned out to be a useful tool for the conversion of drugs and related derivatives. Here, we used 10 P450s from the myxobacterium Sorangium cellulosum So ce56, which have been cloned, expressed, and purified. The P450s were investigated concerning the conversion of the antidepressant drugs amitriptyline, clomipramine, imipramine, and promethazine; the antipsychotic drugs carbamazepine, chlorpromazine, and thioridazine, as well as their precursors, iminodibenzyl and phenothiazine. Amitriptyline, chlorpromazine, clomipramine, imipramine, and thioridazine are efficiently converted during the in vitro reaction and were chosen to upscale the production by an Escherichia coli-based whole-cell bioconversion system. Two different approaches, a whole-cell system using M9CA medium and a system using resting cells in buffer, were used for the production of sufficient amounts of metabolites for NMR analysis. Amitriptyline, clomipramine, and imipramine are converted to the corresponding 10-hydroxylated products, whereas the conversion of chlorpromazine and thioridazine leads to a sulfoxidation in position 5. It is shown for the first time that myxobacterial P450s are efficient to produce known human drug metabolites in a milligram scale, revealing their ability to synthesize pharmaceutically important compounds.
