Abstract
Citrus blue and green molds caused by Penicillium digitatum, P. italicum, and P. polonicum, are the major postharvest diseases of citrus fruit. In the present study, Actinomycin X2 (Act-X2), a naturally occurring antibiotic produced by Streptomyces species, was found to show excellent antifungal effect against these three pathogens with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of 62.5 μg/mL for them all, which was better than the positive control thiophanate-methyl. Act-X2 significantly reduced the percentage of spore germination, and highly inhibited the mycelial growth of P. italicum, P. digitatum, and P. polonicum with EC50 values being 34.34, 13.76, and 37.48 μg/mL, respectively. In addition, Act-X2 greatly decreased the intracellular protein content while increasing the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and superoxide anion (O2-) content in the mycelia of pathogens. In vivo test indicated that Act-X2 strongly inhibited the infection of navel oranges by these three Penicillium species, with an inhibition percentage of >50% for them all at the concentration of 10 MIC. Transcriptome analysis suggested that Act-X2 might highly influence the ribosomal functions of P. polonicum, which was supported as well by the molecular docking analysis of Act-X2 with some key functional proteins and RNAs of the ribosome. Furthermore, Act-X2 significantly reduced the decay percentage and improved the firmness, color, and sugar-acid ratio of navel oranges spray-inoculated with P. polonicum during the postharvest storage at 4 °C for 60 d.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Citrus canker and citrus blue mold are two severe diseases in citrus plants, which are mainly caused by Xanthomonas citri susp. citri (Xcc) and Penicillium italicum, respectively. The currently widely used pesticides for these two diseases are harmful to human health and the environment. Therefore, searching for novel antimicrobial agents, especially from natural resources, is getting increasing interest. RESULTS In this study, the crude extract of Streptomyces sp. GLL-9, an endophyte from a navel orange tree, was found to exhibit excellent antimicrobial effects against Xcc and P. italicum. Bioassay-guided isolation led to the discovery of three actinomycins (Acts), actinomycin X2 (Act-X2 ), actinomycin D (ActD), and actinomycin XOβ (Act-XOβ ). The MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) values of Act-X2 , ActD, and Act-XOβ were 31.25, 62.50, and 62.50 μg mL-1 against Xcc, respectively, while 62.50 (Act-X2 ) and 125.00 μg mL-1 (ActD) against P. italicum, being better or comparable to the positive controls. The highest yield of Acts was obtained by solid-state fermentation with rice containing 1% L-tryptophan as a culture medium, being 6.03, 3.07, and 1.02 mg g-1 , for Act-X2 , ActD, and Act-XOβ , respectively. The ethyl acetate extract of Streptomyces sp. GLL-9 cultivated under the optimal fermentation conditions (EAE-1) can efficiently control these two citrus diseases by excessively producing reactive oxygen species (ROS) in both pathogens, damaging the cell membranes of P. italicum, and inhibiting the growth of Xcc. In addition, Act-X2 , ActD, and EAE-1 displayed broad-spectrum antifungal activity. CONCLUSION EAE-1 and Acts produced by Streptomyces sp. GLL-9 have high potential as novel antimicrobial agents against plant pathogens. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Actinomycin is a family of chromogenic lactone peptides that differ in their peptide portions of the molecule. An antimicrobial peptide, actinomycin X2 (Ac.X2), was produced through the fermentation of a Streptomyces cyaneofuscatus strain. Immobilization of Ac.X2 onto a prepared silk fibroin (SF) film was done through a carbodiimide reaction. The physical properties of immobilized Ac.X2 (antimicrobial films, AMFs) were analyzed by ATR-FTIR, SEM, AFM, and WCA. The findings from an in vitro study showed that AMFs had a more broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against both S. aureus and E. coli compared with free Ac.X2, which showed no apparent strong effect against E. coli. These AMFs showed a suitable degradation rate, good hemocompatibility, and reduced cytotoxicity in the biocompatibility assay. The results of in vivo bacterially infected wound healing experiments indicated that wound inflammation was prevented by AMFs, which promoted wound repair and improved the wound microenvironment. This study revealed that Ac.X2 transformation is a potential candidate for skin wound healing.

Abstract
Background Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is one of the world's most devastating contagious diseases and is caused by the MDR-Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-Mtb) bacteria. It is therefore essential to identify novel anti-TB drug candidates and target proteins to treat MDR-TB. Here, in vitro and in silico studies were used to investigate the anti-TB potential of two newly sourced actinomycins, actinomycin-X2 (act-X2) and actinomycin-D (act-D), from the Streptomyces smyrnaeus strain UKAQ_23 (isolated from the Jubail industrial city of Saudi Arabia). Methods The anti-TB activity of the isolated actinomycins was assessed in vitro using the Mtb H37Ra, Mycobacterium bovis (BCG), and Mtb H37Rv bacterial strains, using the Microplate Alamar Blue Assay (MABA) method. In silico molecular docking studies were conducted using sixteen anti-TB drug target proteins using the AutoDock Vina 1.1.2 tool. The molecular dynamics (MD) simulations for both actinomycins were then performed with the most suitable target proteins, using the GROningen MAchine For Chemical Simulations (GROMACS) simulation software (GROMACS 2020.4), with the Chemistry at HARvard Macromolecular Mechanics 36m (CHARMM36m) forcefield for proteins and the CHARMM General Force Field (CGenFF) for ligands. Results In vitro results for the Mtb H37Ra, BCG, and Mtb H37Rv strains showed that act-X2 had minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of 1.56 ± 0.0, 1.56 ± 0.0, and 2.64 ± 0.07 µg/mL and act-D had MIC values of 1.56 ± 0.0, 1.56 ± 0.0, and 1.80 ± 0.24 µg/mL respectively. The in silico molecular docking results showed that protein kinase PknB was the preferred target for both actinomycins, while KasA and pantothenate synthetase were the least preferred targets for act-X2and act-D respectively. The molecular dynamics (MD) results demonstrated that act-X2 and act-D remained stable inside the binding region of PknB throughout the simulation period. The MM/GBSA (Molecular Mechanics/Generalized Born Surface Area) binding energy calculations showed that act-X2 was more potent than act-D. Conclusion In conclusion, our results suggest that both actinomycins X2 and D are highly potent anti-TB drug candidates. We show that act-X2is better able to antagonistically interact with the protein kinase PknB target than act-D, and thus has more potential as a new anti-TB drug candidate.

Abstract
Leishmaniasis, a Neglected Tropical Parasitic Disease (NTPD), is induced by several Leishmania species and is disseminated through sandfly (Lutzomyia longipalpis) bites. The parasite has developed resistance to currently prescribed antileishmanial drugs, and it has become pertinent to the search for new antileishmanial agents. The current study aimed to investigate the in vitro and in silico antileishmanial activity of two newly sourced actinomycins, X2 and D, produced by the novel Streptomyces smyrnaeus strain UKAQ_23. The antileishmanial activity conducted on promastigotes and amastigotes of Leishmania major showed actinomycin X2 having half-maximal effective concentrations (EC50), at 2.10 ± 0.10 μg/mL and 0.10 ± 0.0 μg/mL, and selectivity index (SI) values of 0.048 and 1, respectively, while the actinomycin D exhibited EC50 at 1.90 ± 0.10 μg/mL and 0.10 ± 0.0 μg/mL, and SI values of 0.052 and 1. The molecular docking studies demonstrated squalene synthase as the most favorable antileishmanial target protein for both the actinomycins X2 and D, while the xanthine phosphoribosyltransferase was the least favorable target protein. The molecular dynamics simulations confirmed that both the actinomycins remained stable in the binding pocket during the simulations. Furthermore, the MMPBSA (Molecular Mechanics Poisson-Boltzmann Surface Area) binding energy calculations established that the actinomycin X2 is a better binder than the actinomycin D. In conclusion, both actinomycins X2 and D from Streptomyces smyrnaeus strain UKAQ_23 are promising antileishmanial drug candidates and have strong potential to be used for treating the currently drug-resistant leishmaniasis.

Abstract
Streptomyces smyrnaeus UKAQ_23, isolated from the mangrove-sediment, collected from Jubail,Saudi Arabia, exhibited substantial antimicrobial activity against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), including non-MRSA Gram-positive test bacteria. The novel isolate, under laboratory-scale conditions, produced the highest yield (561.3 ± 0.3 mg/kg fermented agar) of antimicrobial compounds in modified ISP-4 agar at pH 6.5, temperature 35 °C, inoculum 5% v/w, agar 1.5% w/v, and an incubation period of 7 days. The two major compounds, K1 and K2, were isolated from fermented medium and identified as Actinomycin X2 and Actinomycin D, respectively, based on their structural analysis. The antimicrobial screening showed that Actinomycin X2 had the highest antimicrobial activity compared to Actinomycin D, and the actinomycins-mixture (X2:D, 1:1, w/w) against MRSA and non-MRSA Gram-positive test bacteria, at 5 µg/disc concentrations. The MIC of Actinomycin X2 ranged from 1.56–12.5 µg/ml for non-MRSA and 3.125–12.5 µg/ml for MRSA test bacteria. An in-silico molecular docking demonstrated isoleucyl tRNA synthetase as the most-favored antimicrobial protein target for both actinomycins, X2 and D, while the penicillin-binding protein-1a, was the least-favorable target-protein. In conclusion, Streptomyces smyrnaeus UKAQ_23 emerged as a promising source of Actinomycin X2 with the potential to be scaled up for industrial production, which could benefit the pharmaceutical industry.

Abstract
Actinomycin D has long been used as a first-line antitumor drug in clinical practice. Actinomycin X2, a new drug lead, is often isolated along with actinomycin D. The minor differences between the two actinomycin analogs pose a daunting challenge in separation. In this study, supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) was successfully utilized for the purification of actinomycin X2 and actinomycin D from a marine derived Streptomyces sp. DQS-5. After one-step SFC purification, the purities of these two compounds were determined to be 97.3 % and 97.8 %, respectively. This method provides a green alternative for the separation of these pharmacologically important actinomycin antibiotics. This study also demonstrated the development of a simple and rapid method for the separation of natural products based on SFC.

Abstract
Endophytic actinomycetes are a rich source of novel antimicrobial compounds. The aim of this study was to evaluate the production of antimicrobial compound by endophytic Streptomyces sp. Av-R5 associated with root of Aloe vera against multidrug-resistant human pathogens. The 16S rRNA sequence of the isolate Av-R5 has been identified as Streptomyces parvulus NBRC 13193T (AB184326) and the sequence was submitted to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) GenBank database (accession number KY771080). Streptomyces parvulus Av-R5 grown under submerged fermentation condition optimized by central composite design (glucose 11.16 g/L, soybean meal 10.25 g/L, sodium chloride 11.18 g/L, calcium carbonate 1.32 g/L at pH 7.19 at 31.42 °C with 6.04% seed inoculum for 10 days of incubation) exhibited the highest activity against multidrug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus JNMC-3, Staphylococcus epidermidis JNMC-4, Klebsiella pneumoniae MTCC-3384, Klebsiella pneumoniae JNMC-6, Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC-741, Proteus vulgaris JNMC-7, Candida albicans MTCC-183, and Aspergillus niger MTCC-872. The structures of the active compounds were elucidated by UV-Vis spectroscopy, 1H and 13C NMR, FT-IR, and ESIMS. Actinomycin D and actinomycin X0β were detected in crude extracts and major components were eluted by HPLC at 10.96 and 6.81 min, respectively. In this case, a high yield of actinomycin D and actinomycin X0β (400 mg/L) was achieved with Streptomyces parvulus Av-R5, fermented in glucose soybean meal broth media, which can be used in industrial fermentation process to obtain high yields.

Modeling improved production of the chemotherapeutic polypeptide actinomycin D by a novel Streptomyces sp. strain from a Saharan soil. Heliyon 2019; 5:e01695. [PMID: 31193702 PMCID: PMC6538969 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2019.e01695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2019] [Revised: 03/30/2019] [Accepted: 05/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The novel bioactive actinobacterial strain GSBNT10 obtained from a Saharan soil, was taxonomically characterized using a polyphasic approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis supported the classification of the isolate within the genus Streptomyces indicating it as a novel species. The major metabolite responsible of the bioactivity was purified and structurally characterized as actinomycin D (act-D) by mass spectrometric and nuclear magnetic resonance analyses Plackett-Burman design (PBD) and response surface methodology (RSM) were applied in order to optimize the medium formulation for the production of this bioactive metabolite. By PBD experiments, NaNO3, K2HPO4 and initial pH value were selected as significant variables affecting the metabolite production. Central Composite Design (CCD) showed that adjustment of the fermentative medium at pH 8.25, K2HPO4 at 0.2 gL-1 and NaNO3 at 3.76 gL-1 were the values suiting the production of act-D. Moreover, the results obtained by the statistical approach were confirmed by act-D detection using the HPLC equipped with a diode array detector and coupled online with electrospray-mass spectrometry (ESIMS) technique. act-D production was highly stimulated, obtaining a good yield (656.46 mgL-1) which corresponds to a 58.56% increase compared with the non-optimized conditions and data from LC-ESIMS technique efficiently confirmed the forecast from RSM.

BMC Microbiol 2019; 19:44.

Abstract
Background The increased rate of resistance among two highly concerned pathogens i.e. methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE) necessitates the discovery of novel anti-MRSA and anti-VRE compounds. In microbial drug discovery, Streptomyces are well known source of two-thirds of natural antibiotics used clinically. Hence, screening of new strains of streptomycetes is the key step to get novel bioactive compounds with antimicrobial activity against drug resistant bacteria. Results In the present study, Streptomyces antibioticus strain M7, possessing potent antibacterial activity against different pathogenic bacteria, was isolated from rhizospheric soil of Stevia rebudiana. 16S rRNA sequence of M7 (1418 bp) showed 96.47–100% similarity with different Streptomyces spp. and the maximum similarity (100%) was observed with Streptomyces antibioticus NBRC 12838T (AB184184). Phylogenetic analysis using neighbor joining method further validated its similarity with Streptomyces antibioticus NBRC 12838 T (AB184184) as it formed clade with the latter and showed high boot strap value (99%). Antibacterial metabolites isolated from the fermentation broth were characterized using NMR, FT-IR and LC-MS as actinomycins V, X2 and D. The purified actinomycins exhibited potent antibacterial activities against test bacteria viz. B. subtilis, K. pneumoniae sub sp. pneumoniae, S. aureus, S. epidermidis, S. typhi, E. coli, MRSA and VRE. Among these actinomycins, actinomycin X2 was more effective as compared to actinomycins D and V. The minimum inhibitory concentration values of purified compounds against a set of test bacterial organisms viz. VRE, MRSA, E. coli (S1-LF), K. pneumoniae sub sp. pneumoniae and B. subtilis ranged between 1.95 and 31.25 μg/ml. Conclusions This study demonstrates that actinomycins V, X2 and D produced by S. antibioticus strain M7 hold the potential to be used against multidrug resistant bacteria, particularly VRE and MRSA.

Abstract
The potent transcription inhibitor Actinomycin D is used with several cancers. Here, we report the discovery that this naturally occurring antibiotic inhibits two human neutral aminopeptidases, the cell-surface alanine aminopeptidase and intracellular methionine aminopeptidase type 2. These metallo-containing exopeptidases participate in tumor cell expansion and motility and are targets for anticancer therapies. We show that the peptide portions of Actinomycin D and Actinomycin X2 are not required for effective inhibition, but the loss of these regions changes the mechanism of interaction. Two structurally less complex Actinomycin D analogs containing the phenoxazone chromophores, Questiomycin A and Actinocin, appear to be competitive inhibitors of both aminopeptidases, with potencies similar to the non-competitive macrocyclic parent compound (Ki in the micromolar range). The mode of action for all four compounds and both enzymes was demonstrated by molecular modeling and docking in the corresponding active sites. This knowledge gives new perspectives to Actinomycin D's action on tumors and suggests new avenues and molecules for medical applications.

Abstract
Streptomyces sp. RAB12 having potential to produce novel actinomycin group compounds was isolated from soil samples collected from CSIR-Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad, India, garden premises using International Streptomycetes Project (ISP) protocols. The 16S rRNA sequence of the strain RAB12 exhibited identity with Streptomyces sp. 13647M and the sequence was deposited in NCBI under the accession number KY 203650 while the strain RAB12 was deposited in The Microbial Type Culture Collection and Gene Bank (MTCC) with accession number MTCC 12747. Cell-free extract of this novel strain revealed two bioactive principles viz., RSP 01 and RSP 02. HR-MS analysis indicated a molecular mass of 1269.61 and 1270.63 m/z g/mol for RSP 01 and RSP 02, respectively. Proton 1H, 13C NMR, 2D NMR and mass spectroscopy analysis revealed a similar fingerprint to that actinomycin D except for a peak at δH3.59 J (1H NMR) and δ 208.88 (13C NMR) for RSP 01 compound suggesting the presence of keto carbonyl at 5-oxo position on the proline moiety which is absent in actinomycin D. Purified RSP 02 depicted a similarity with RSP 01 except a peak in the 1H proton NMR at δH 3.81 J. HR-ESI mass spectra confirmed the molecular formulae for RSP 01 and RSP 02 as C62H84N12O17 and C62H86N12O17, respectively. Antimicrobial activity profile revealed higher antimicrobial activity against bacterial strains (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi, and Bacillus subtilis) and Candida albicans compared to standard actinomycin D. MIC and MBC for RSP 01 were observed to be 0.0039 and 0.0078 (μg/ml) against C. albicans, while for actinomycin D, it was found to be 0.031 and 0.62 (μg/ml), respectively indicating a tenfold higher potency. Thus, these RSP 01 and RSP 02 compounds from Streptomyces sp. RAB12 may be promising candidates for industrial and clinical applications.

Abstract
This paper is the first public report that Streptomyces flavogriseus can produce both actinomycin D and holomycin. The actinomycete strain NJ-4 isolated from the soil of Nanjing Agricultural University was identified as S. flavogriseus. This S. flavogriseus strain was found for the first time to produce two antimicrobial compounds that were identified as actinomycin D and holomycin. GS medium, CS medium and GSS medium were used for the production experiments. All three media supported the production of actinomycin D, while holomycin was detected only in GS medium and was undetectable by HPLC in the CS and GSS media. The antimicrobial activity against B. pumilus, S. aureus, Escherichia coli, F. moniliforme, F. graminearum and A. niger was tested using the agar well diffusion method. Actinomycin D exhibited strong antagonistic activities against all the indicator strains. Holomycin exhibited strong antagonistic activities against B. pumilus, S. aureus and E. coli and had antifungal activity against F. moniliforme and F. graminearum but had no antifungal activity against A. niger. The cell viability was determined using an MTT assay. Holomycin exhibited cytotoxic activity against A549 lung cancer cells, BGC823 gastric cancer cells and HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma cells. The yield of actinomycin D from S. flavogriseus NJ-4 was 960 mg/l. S. flavogriseus NJ-4 exhibits a distinct capability and has the industrial potential to produce considerable yields of actinomycin D under unoptimized conditions.

Abstract
In the process of profiling the secondary metabolites of actinobacteria isolated from the Saudi coastal habitats for production of antibiotics and anti-cancer drugs, the cultures of strain WH1 that was identified as Streptomyces heliomycini exhibited strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. By means of MS and NMR techniques, the active compounds were characterized as actinomycins X0β, X2, and D, respectively. The research on the productivity of this strain for actinomycins revealed that the highest production of actinomycins X0β, X2, and D was reached in the medium MII within 5% salinity and pH 8.5. In this optimized condition, the fermentation titers of actinomycins X0β, X2, and D were 107.6 ± 4.2, 283.4 ± 75.3, and 458.0 ± 76.3 mg/L, respectively. All the three actinomycins X0β, X2, and D showed potent cytotoxicities against the MCF-7, K562, and A549 tumor cell lines, in which actinomycin X2 was the most active against the three tumor cell lines with the IC50 values of 0.8-1.8 nM. Both actinomycins X2 and D showed potent antibacterial activities against S. aureus and the methicillin-resistant S. aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and B. cereus and the actinomycin X2 was more potent.

Abstract
Common saprophytic fungi are seldom present in Protea infructescences, which is strange given the abundance of mainly dead plant tissue in this moist protected environment. We hypothesized that the absence of common saprophytic fungi in Protea infructescences could be due to a special symbiosis where the presence of microbes producing antifungal compounds protect the infructescence. Using a culture based survey, employing selective media and in vitro antifungal assays, we isolated antibiotic producing actinomycetes from infructescences of Protea repens and P. neriifolia from two geographically separated areas. Isolates were grouped into three different morphological groups and appeared to be common in the Protea spp. examined in this study. The three groups were supported in 16S rRNA and multi-locus gene trees and were identified as potentially novel Streptomyces spp. All of the groups had antifungal activity in vitro. Streptomyces sp. Group 1 had inhibitory activity against all tested fungi and the active compound produced by this species was identified as fungichromin. Streptomyces spp. Groups 2 and 3 had lower inhibition against all tested fungi, while Group 3 showed limited inhibition against Candida albicans and Sporothrix isolates. The active compound for Group 2 was also identified as fungichromin even though its production level was much lower than Group 1. The antifungal activity of Group 3 was linked to actiphenol. The observed antifungal activity of the isolated actinomycetes could contribute to protection of the plant material against common saprophytic fungi, as fungichromin was also detected in extracts of the infructescence. The results of this study suggest that the antifungal Streptomyces spp. could play an important role in defining the microbial population associated with Protea infructescences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There has been a great deal of interest in fuel productions from lignocellulosic biomass to minimize the conflict between food and fuel use. The bioconversion of xylose, which is the second most abundant sugar present after glucose in lignocellulosic biomass, is important for the development of cost effective bioprocesses to fuels. Rhodococcus opacus PD630, an oleaginous bacterium, accumulates large amounts of triacylglycerols (TAGs), which can be processed into advanced liquid fuels. However, R. opacus PD630 does not metabolize xylose. RESULTS We generated DNA libraries from a Streptomyces bacterium capable of utilizing xylose and introduced them into R. opacus PD630. Xsp8, one of the engineered strains, was capable of growing on up to 180 g L-1 of xylose. Xsp8 grown in batch-cultures derived from unbleached kraft hardwood pulp hydrolysate containing 70 g L-1 total sugars was able to completely and simultaneously utilize xylose and glucose present in the lignocellulosic feedstock, and yielded 11.0 g L-1 of TAGs as fatty acids, corresponding to 45.8% of the cell dry weight. The yield of total fatty acids per gram of sugars consumed was 0.178 g, which consisted primarily of palmitic acid and oleic acid. The engineered strain Xsp8 was introduced with two heterologous genes from Streptomyces: xylA, encoding xylose isomerase, and xylB, encoding xylulokinase. We further demonstrated that in addition to the introduction and the concomitant expression of heterologous xylA and xylB genes, there is another molecular target in the R. opacus genome which fully enables the functionality of xylA and xylB genes to generate the robust xylose-fermenting strain capable of efficiently producing TAGs at high xylose concentrations. CONCLUSION We successfully engineered a R. opacus strain that is capable of completely utilizing high concentrations of xylose or mixed xylose/glucose simultaneously, and substantiated its suitability for TAG production. This study demonstrates that the engineered strain possesses a key trait of converters for lipid-based fuels production from lignocellulosic biomass.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To isolate novel actinomycetes and to evaluate their antibacterial activity. METHODS Three soil samples were collected from Vengodu (village) in Kanchipuram district, Tamil Nadu, India. Actinomycetes were isolated using serial dilution and plating method on actinomycetes isolation agar. RESULTS Totally 35 isolates were obtained on the basis of colony characteristics on actinomycetes isolation agar. All the isolates were screened for antibacterial activity by cross streak method. Medium and optimization of day were done for the potent strains using Nathan's agar well diffusion method. Isolation of bioactive compounds from significant active isolates was done by using different media. The most active isolate VAS 10 was identified as Actinobacterium Loyola PBT VAS 10 (accession No. JF501398) using 16s rRNA sequence method. The hexane, ethyl acetate, dichloromethane and butanol extracts of VAS 10 were tested against bacteria. The maximum antibacterial activity was observed in dichloromethane and ethyl acetate; maximum zones of inhibition were observed against Enterococcus durans. The rRNA secondary structure and the restriction sites of Actinobacterium Loyola VAS 10 were predicted using Genebee and NEBCutter online tools respectively. CONCLUSIONS The present study showed that among the isolated actinomycetes, Actinobacterium Loyola PBT VAS 10 (accession No. JF501398) showed good antibacterial activity against the tested bacteria.

Abstract
In the course of our screening program for anti-Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv (MTB H37Rv) agents from our marine natural product library, a newly isolated actinomycete strain, designated as MS449, was picked out for further investigation. The strain MS449, isolated from a sediment sample collected from South China Sea, produced actinomycin X(2) and actinomycin D in substantial quantities, which showed strong inhibition of BCG and MTB H37Rv. The structures of actinomycins were elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance and mass spectrometric analysis. The strain MS449 was taxonomically characterized on the basis of morphological and phenotypic characteristics, genotypic data, and phylogenetic analysis. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the strain was determined and a database search indicated that the strain was closely associated with the type strain of Streptomyces avermitilis (99.7 % 16S rRNA gene similarity). S. avermitilis has not been previously reported to produce actinomycins. The marine-derived strain of Streptomyces sp. MS449 produced notably higher quantities of actinomycin X(2) (1.92 mg/ml) and actinomycin D (1.77 mg/ml) than previously reported actinomycins producing strains. Thus, MS449 was considered of great potential as a new industrial producing strain of actinomycin X(2) and actinomycin D.

Abstract
As well as the search for new antibiotics, a new resource or strains for the known antibiotics is also important. Microbial symbionts in the gut of termites could be regarded as one of the feasible resource for such purpose. In this study, antibiotic-producing actinomycetes were screened from symbionts of the termite gut. 16SrRNA sequence analysis for the 10 isolates revealed that they belong to actinomycetes such as Streptomyces sp., Kitasatospora sp., and Mycobacterium sp. A culture broth from one of the isolate, namely strain CA1, belonging to the genera Streptomyces exhibited antagonistic activity against actinomycetes (Micrococcus spp.), gram-positive bacteria (Bacillus spp.), and yeast (Candida spp.). The structures of 2 compounds isolated from the culture broth of the strain CA1 were identified as those of actinomycin X2 and its analog, D. This study is the first to report that some symbionts of the termite gut are antibiotic-producing actinomycetes, and suggest that the termite gut is a feasible resource for bioprospecting.

Abstract
A new, short, and quick method was developed for preparation of specimen for observing Actinomycetes of genus Streptomyces by scanning electron microscopy. The cultures were directly grown on stubs and coated with a film of gold without using any fixative and dehydrating procedures. Using this simple preparation procedure, surface of intact sporing structures of Streptomyces was observed over a range of magnifications. As the preparation procedure is so simple and rapid, this procedure could be most useful for the routine examination and identification of Streptomyces.

Abstract
Bacteria obtain a significant proportion of their genetic diversity via acquisition of DNA from distantly related organisms, a phenomenon known as horizontal gene transfer. The focus of horizontal gene transfer investigations has been primarily on the impact of this phenomenon on the ecological and/or pathogenic characteristics of bacterial species, with very little effort devoted to investigating horizontal gene transfer as a means of drug discovery. Here, we describe a novel approach to harness the power of horizontal gene transfer to produce novel chemotherapeutic molecules, a process that is easily scalable. We describe the state of the art in this field and discuss the current limiting factors associated with this phenomenon. Utilising a horizontal gene transfer method, we have identified and characterised a novel antimicrobial compound. Production of this antibiotic, termed rhodostreptomycin, is associated with the transfer of DNA from a species of Streptomyces to Rhodococcus by an as yet identified mechanism. We believe that horizontal gene transfer may represent the future of natural product discovery and engineering.

Abstract
Artificial neural network (ANN) and genetic algorithm (GA) were applied to optimize the medium components for the production of actinomycin V from a newly isolated strain of Streptomyces triostinicus which is not reported to produce this class of antibiotics. Experiments were conducted using the central composite design (CCD), and the data generated was used to build an artificial neural network model. The concentrations of five medium components (MgSO(4), NaCl, glucose, soybean meal and CaCO(3)) served as inputs to the neural network model, and the antibiotic yield served as outputs of the model. Using the genetic algorithm, the input space of the neural network model was optimized to find out the optimum values for maximum antibiotic yield. Maximum antibiotic yield of 452.0 mg l(-1) was obtained at the GA-optimized concentrations of medium components (MgSO(4) 3.657; NaCl 1.9012; glucose 8.836; soybean meal 20.1976 and CaCO(3) 13.0842 gl(-1)). The antibiotic yield obtained by the ANN/GA was 36.7% higher than the yield obtained with the response surface methodology (RSM).

Abstract
The effects of cultivation medium compositions including soybean meal, peptone, soybean oil and cornstarch for actinomycin X2 production by Streptomyces spp JAU4234 were accessed by using response surface methodology. The 2(4) full factorial designs and the paths of steepest ascent were effective in searching for the major factors of actinomycin X2 production. In this study, cornstarch and soybean oil showed negative effect on actinomycin X2 production based on the first-order regression coefficients derived from MINITAB software. Subsequently, a central composite design for optimization was further investigated. Preliminary studies showed that soybean meal and peptone were believed to be the major factors for actinomycin X2 production. Estimated optimum compositions for the production of actionmycin X2 were as follows (g/l): soybean meal 21.65 and peptone 9.41, and result in a maximum actionmycin X2 production of 617.4 mg/l. This value was closed to the 612 mg/l actionmycin X2 production from actual experimental observations. The yield of actionmycin X2 was increased by 36.9% by culturing the strain Streptomyces spp JAU4234 in the nutritionally optimized fermentation medium.
