Classification and Multifaceted Potential of Secondary Metabolites Produced by Bacillus subtilis Group: A Comprehensive Review. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28030927. [PMID: 36770594 PMCID: PMC9919246 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28030927] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2022] [Revised: 12/31/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Despite their remarkable biosynthetic potential, Bacillus subtilis have been widely overlooked. However, their capability to withstand harsh conditions (extreme temperature, Ultraviolet (UV) and γ-radiation, and dehydration) and the promiscuous metabolites they synthesize have created increased commercial interest in them as a therapeutic agent, a food preservative, and a plant-pathogen control agent. Nevertheless, the commercial-scale availability of these metabolites is constrained due to challenges in their accessibility via synthesis and low fermentation yields. In the context of this rising in interest, we comprehensively visualized the antimicrobial peptides produced by B. subtilis and highlighted their prospective applications in various industries. Moreover, we proposed and classified these metabolites produced by the B. subtilis group based on their biosynthetic pathways and chemical structures. The biosynthetic pathway, bioactivity, and chemical structure are discussed in detail for each class. We believe that this review will spark a renewed interest in the often disregarded B. subtilis and its remarkable biosynthetic capabilities.

Abstract
Novel access to oxaspiro[n,3,3]propellanes has been developed from bicyclic lactones directly prepared by a photochemical hydroxymethylation or alternatively by a three-step sequence. Thanks to the presence of additional hydroxy- and propargylic groups, a second cyclization catalyzed by silver or bismuth salts, led to the propellane structure which was finally transformed into spiranic derivatives by a Simmons-Smith reaction or condensation with α-ketoesters.

Abstract
Over the last seven decades, applications using members of the Bacillus subtilis group have emerged in both food processes and crop protection industries. Their ability to form survival endospores and the plethora of antimicrobial compounds they produce has generated an increased industrial interest as food preservatives, therapeutic agents and biopesticides. In the growing context of food biopreservation and biological crop protection, this review suggests a comprehensive way to visualize the antimicrobial spectrum described within the B. subtilis group, including volatile compounds. This classification distinguishes the bioactive metabolites based on their biosynthetic pathways and chemical nature: i.e., ribosomal peptides (RPs), volatile compounds, polyketides (PKs), non-ribosomal peptides (NRPs), and hybrids between PKs and NRPs. For each clade, the chemical structure, biosynthesis and antimicrobial activity are described and exemplified. This review aims at constituting a convenient and updated classification of antimicrobial metabolites from the B. subtilis group, whose complex phylogeny is prone to further development.

Abstract
Microbial biotransformation of naturally occurring pungent sesquiterpene 1,2-dials, polygodial and cinnamodial, and a diterpene 1,2-dial, sacculatal as well as their tetrahydro derivatives was carried out by using Aspergillus niger. The pungent polygodial and sacculatal are toxic against A. niger not to produce any metabolites while A. niger biotransformed cinnamodial to the lactonized products in small amount. On the other hands, the dihydroxy derivatives of the former two dialdehydes were bioconverted by the same fungus to give hydroxy-, oxo-, carboxylic- and epoxy-products. The stereostructures of each metabolite and their metabolic pathways were described.

Abstract
Currently, pyripyropene A, which is isolated from the culture broth of Aspergillus fumigatus FO-1289, is the only compound known to strongly and selectively inhibit the isozyme sterol O-acyltransferase 2 (SOAT2). To aid in the development of new cholesterol-lowering or anti-atherosclerotic agents, new A-ring simplified pyripyropene A analogues have been designed and synthesized based on total synthesis, and the results of structure-activity relationship studies of pyripyropene A. Among the analogues, two A-ring simplified pyripyropene A analogues exhibited equally efficient SOAT2 inhibitory activity to that of natural pyripyropene A. These new analogues are the most potent and selective SOAT2 inhibitors to be used as synthetic compounds and attractive seed compounds for the development of drug for dyslipidemia, including atherosclerotic disease and steatosis.

Abstract
First-row transition-metal-mediated reactions constitute an important and growing area of research due to the low cost, low toxicity, and exceptional synthetic versatility of these metals. Currently, there is considerable effort to replace existing precious-metal-catalyzed reactions with first-row analogs. More importantly, there are a plethora of unique transformations mediated by first-row metals, which have no classical second- or third-row counterpart. Herein, the application of first-row metal-mediated methods to the total synthesis of natural products is discussed. This Review is intended to highlight strategic uses of these metals to realize efficient syntheses and highlight the future potential of these reagents and catalysts in organic synthesis.

Abstract
The first asymmetric total synthesis of (+)-iresin (4), an historically important ent-Drimane sesquiterpene lactone, was realized from aldehyde 3 via cyclic orthoester 6 in 5 steps. Notable transformations in this synthesis include a tandem trifluoroperacetic acid (TFPAA)-mediated Baeyer-Villiger oxidation-olefin epoxidation-epoxy ester cyclization, regioselective Burgess dehydration, and regioselective Fétizon oxidative lactonization.

Abstract
We describe a new strategy to control the number of cyclization steps in bioinspired radical (poly)cyclizations involving epoxypolyenes containing keto units positioned along the polyene chain. This approach provides an unprecedentedly straightforward access to natural terpenoids with pendant unsaturated side chains. Additionally, in the case of bi- and tricyclizations, decalins with cis stereochemistry have been obtained as a consequence of the presence of the ketone. The preferential formation of cis-fused adducts was rationalized using DFT calculations. This result is completely unprecedented in biomimetic cyclizations and permits the access to natural terpenoids with this stereochemistry, as well as to non-natural analogues.

Abstract
As the largest class of natural products, terpenes have a variety of roles in mediating antagonistic and beneficial interactions among organisms. They defend many species of plants, animals and microorganisms against predators, pathogens and competitors, and they are involved in conveying messages to conspecifics and mutualists regarding the presence of food, mates and enemies. Despite the diversity of terpenes known, it is striking how phylogenetically distant organisms have come to use similar structures for common purposes. New natural roles undoubtedly remain to be discovered for this large class of compounds, given that such a small percentage of terpenes has been investigated so far.
