Abstract
Discovering more novel antimicrobial compounds has become a keen research problem. In this study, YA215 genome was sequenced by the Illumina HiSeq + PacBio sequencing platform. Genome assembly was performed by Unicycler software and the gene clusters responsible for secondary metabolite biosynthesis were predicted by antiSMASH. The genome comprised 3976514 bp and had a 46.56% G + C content. 3809 coding DNA sequences, 27 rRNAs, 86 tRNAs genes, and 79 sRNA were predicted. Strain YA215 was re-identified as Bacillus velezensis based on ANI and OrthoANI analysis. In the COG database, 23 functional groups from 3090 annotations were predicted. In the GO database, 2654 annotations were predicted. 2486 KEGG annotations linked 41 metabolic pathways. Glycosyl transferases, polysaccharide lyases, auxiliary activities, glycoside hydrolases, carbohydrate esterases, and carbohydrate-binding modules were predicted among the 127 annotations in the CAZy database. AntiSMASH analysis predicted that B. velezensis YA215 boasted 13 gene clusters involved in synthesis of antimicrobial secondary metabolites including surfactin, fengycin, macrolactin H, bacillaene, difficidin, bacillibactin, bacilysin, and plantazolicin. Three of the gene clusters (gene cluster 5, gene cluster 9, and gene cluster 10) have the potential to synthesize unknown compounds. The research underscore the considerable potential of secondary metabolites, identified in the genomic composition of B. velezensis YA215, as versatile antibacterial agents with a broad spectrum of activity against pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
In Arctic regions, glaciers are major sources of iron to rivers and streams; however, estuaries are considered iron sinks due to the coagulation and flocculation processes that occur at higher salinities. It is unknown how iron dynamics in a glacial influenced river and estuary environment affect microbial mechanisms for iron acquisition. Microbial taxonomic and functional sequencing was performed on samples taken throughout the year from the Kenai River and the estuary, Alaska. Despite distinct iron, sodium, and other nutrient concentrations, the river and estuary did not have statistically different microbial communities nor was time of sampling significant. However, ferrous iron transport (Feo) system genes were more abundant in river environments, while siderophore genes were more abundant and diverse in estuary environments. Siderophore transport and iron storage genes were found in all samples, but gene abundance and distribution were potentially influenced by physical drivers such as discharge rates and nutrient distributions. Differences in iron metabolism between river and estuary ecosystems indicate environmental conditions drive microbial mechanisms to sequester iron. This could have implications for iron transport as the Arctic continues to warm.

Abstract
AIM Arsenic contamination in agricultural soils poses a serious health risk for humans. Bacteria that produce siderophores, primarily for iron acquisition, can be relevant in combating arsenic toxicity in agricultural soils and simultaneously act as biocontrol agents against plant diseases. We evaluated the arsenic bioremediation and biocontrol potential of the rhizosphere isolate Bacillus amyloliquefaciens BM3 and studied the interaction between the purified siderophore bacillibactin and arsenic. METHODS AND RESULTS BM3 showed high arsenic resistance [MIC value 475 and 24 mM against As(V) and As(III), respectively] and broad spectrum in-vitro antagonism against several phytopathogenic fungi. BM3 was identified by biochemical characterization and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis revealed increased cell size of BM3 when grown in presence of sub-lethal arsenic concentrations. Bioremediation assays showed a 74% and 88.1% reduction in As(V) and As(III) concentrations, respectively. Genetic determinants for arsenic resistance (arsC and aoxB) and antifungal traits (bacAB and chiA) were detected by PCR. Arsenic chelating ability of bacillibactin, the siderophore purified from culture filtrate of BM3 and identified through spectroscopic data analysis, was observed in CAS assay and fluorescence spectrometry. In-vivo application of talc-based formulation of BM3 in brinjal seedlings showed significant reduction in Fusarium wilt disease. CONCLUSION Strain B. amyloliquefaciens BM3 may be useful in arsenic bioremediation and may be considered for large field trials as an alternative to chemical fungicides by inhibiting soil borne pathogens.

Mining the genome of Bacillus velezensis FS26 for probiotic markers and secondary metabolites with antimicrobial properties against aquaculture pathogens. Microb Pathog 2023:106161. [PMID: 37207784 DOI: 10.1016/j.micpath.2023.106161] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/19/2023] [Revised: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/21/2023]
Abstract
Bacillus velezensis FS26 is a bacterium from the genus Bacillus that has been proven as a potential probiotic in aquaculture with a good antagonistic effect on Aeromonas spp. and Vibrio spp. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) allows a comprehensive and in-depth analysis at the molecular level, and it is becoming an increasingly significant technique in aquaculture research. Although numerous probiotic genomes have been sequenced and investigated recently, there are minimal data on in silico analysis of B. velezensis as a probiotic bacterium isolated from aquaculture sources. Thus, this study aims to analyse the general genome characteristics and probiotic markers from the B. velezensis FS26 genome with secondary metabolites predicted against aquaculture pathogens. The B. velezensis FS26 genome (GenBank Accession: JAOPEO000000000) assembly proved to be of high quality, with eight contigs containing 3,926,371 bp and an average G + C content of 46.5%. According to antiSMASH analysis, five clusters of secondary metabolites from the B. velezensis FS26 genome showed 100% similarity. These clusters include Cluster 2 (bacilysin), Cluster 6 (bacillibactin), Cluster 7 (fengycin), Cluster 8 (bacillaene), and Cluster 9 (macrolactin H), which signify promising antibacterial, antifungal, and anticyanobacterial agents against pathogens in aquaculture. The probiotic markers of B. velezensis FS26 genome for adhesion capability in the hosts' intestine, as well as the acid and bile salt-tolerant genes, were also detected through the Prokaryotic Genome Annotation System (Prokka) annotation pipeline. These results are in agreement with our previous in vitro data, suggesting that the in silico investigation facilitates establishing B. velezensis FS26 as a beneficial probiotic for use in aquaculture.

Abstract
Lipopeptides, a class of compounds consisting of a peptide ring and a fatty acid chain, are secondary metabolites produced by Bacillus spp. As their hydrophilic and oleophilic properties, lipopeptides are widely used in food, medicine, environment and other industrial or agricultural fields. Compared with artificial synthetic surfactants, microbial lipopeptides have the advantages of low toxicity, high efficiency and versatility, resulting in urgent market demand and broad development prospect of lipopeptides. However, due to the complex metabolic network and precursor requirements of synthesis, the specific and strict synthesis pathway, and the coexistence of multiple homologous substances, the production of lipopeptides by microorganisms has the problems of high cost and low production efficiency, limiting the mass production of lipopeptides and large-scale application in industry. This review summarizes the types of Bacillus-produced lipopeptides and their biosynthetic pathways, introduces the versatility of lipopeptides, and describes the methods to improve the production of lipopeptides, including genetic engineering and optimization of fermentation conditions.

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
In Bacillus, the spore formation process is associated with the synthesis and release of secondary metabolites. A large number of studies have been conducted to systematically elucidate the pathways and mechanisms of spore formation. However, there are no studies have explored the relationship between secondary metabolites and spores. In this study, we investigated the relationship between its secondary metabolite bacillomycin D (BD) and spores using the simpler dipicolonic acid fluorimetry assay for spore counting in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens fmbJ. Our results showed that BD could promote the spore formation of B. amyloliquefaciens fmbJ and had a synergistic effect with certain concentrations of Mn2+. When 15.6 mg/L of BD and 1 mM of Mn2+ were added, the number of fmbJ spores increased from 1.42 × 108 CFU/mL to 2.02 × 108 CFU/mL after 36 h of incubation. The expressions of spore formation (kinA, kinB, kinC, kinD, kinE and spo0A) and Mn-related genes (mntA, mntH, mneS, mneP) were studied by RT-PCR. The results indicated that BD and Mn2+ promoted the spore formation of fmbJ by stimulating the transcription of kinB, kinD and increasing the influence of spo0F-spo0A phosphorylation transmission. This study provided a new idea to improve the spore production of B. amyloliquefaciens and laid the foundation for its industrial production.

Abstract
Bacillus licheniformis is a well-known probiotic that can be found in a variety of foods. The strain Bacillus licheniformis MCC 2514 was previously characterized by our group for its bio-physiological capabilities establishing it as a promising probiotic, but information on the genetic evidence for its attributes was lacking. In the current study, whole genome analysis identified the underlying molecular determinants responsible for its probiotic potential. The circular genome of MCC 2514 was 4,230,480 bp with 46.2% GC content, 24 rRNA, and 83 tRNA genes. The pangenome analysis between B. licheniformis MCC 2514 and 12 other B. licheniformis strains revealed a pangenome of 6008 genes and core genome of 3775 genes. Genome mining revealed NRPS and bacteriocins producing gene clusters indicating its biocontrol properties. Several genes encoding carbohydrate degrading enzymes, which aid in proper food degradation in the intestine, were also observed. Stress tolerance, vitamin, and essential amino acids biosynthesis related genes were found, which are important characteristics of a probiotic strain. Additionally, vital genes responsible for gut adhesion and biofilm formation were observed in its genome. The bacterium has been shown to improve the shelf life of idli batter by preventing whey separation, CO2, and odour production while maintaining the pH of 3.96-4.29, especially at cold temperatures. It has significantly reduced coliform contamination at both room and low temperatures, demonstrating its bio-preservative ability, which is also corroborated by the presence of the NRPS and bacteriocin gene clusters in its genome. The present study helped to understand both, the ability of B. licheniformis MCC 2514 to adapt the intestinal gut environment and its probiotic functionality for food preservation.

Front Microbiol 2022; 13:891091. [PMID: 35620100 PMCID: PMC9127598 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.891091] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2022] [Accepted: 03/28/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Microbial degradation is considered as an attractive method to eliminate exposure to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), the most toxic mycotoxin that causes great economic losses and brings a serious threat to human and animal health, in food and feed. In this study, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens WF2020, isolated from naturally fermented pickles, could effectively degrade AFB1 ranging from 1 to 8 μg/ml, and the optimum temperature and pH value were 37–45°C and 8.0, respectively. Moreover, B. amyloliquefaciens WF2020 was considered to be a potential probiotic due to the synthesis of active compounds, absence of virulence genes, susceptibility to various antibiotics, and enhanced lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans. Extracellular enzymes or proteins played a major role in AFB1 degradation mediated by B. amyloliquefaciens WF2020 into metabolites with low or no mutagenicity and toxicity to C. elegans. AFB1 degradation by the cell-free supernatant was stable up to 70°C, with an optimal pH of 8.0, and the cell-free supernatant could still degrade AFB1 by 37.16% after boiling for 20 min. Furthermore, B. amyloliquefaciens WF2020 caused a slight defect in fungal growth and completely inhibited AFB1 production when co-incubated with Aspergillus flavus. Additionally, B. amyloliquefaciens WF2020 suppressed the expression of 10 aflatoxin pathway genes and 2 transcription factors (alfR and alfS), suggesting that B. amyloliquefaciens WF2020 might inhibit AFB1 synthesis in A. flavus. These results indicate that B. amyloliquefaciens WF2020 and/or its extracellular enzymes or proteins have a promising potential to be applied in protecting food and feed from AFB1 contamination.

Genomic and Experimental Analysis of the Biostimulant and Antagonistic Properties of Phytopathogens of Bacillus safensis and Bacillus siamensis. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10040670.

Abstract
The B. safensis RGM 2450 and B. siamensis RGM 2529 strains were isolated from the rhizosphere of plants presenting resilience to abiotic and biotic stress conditions. To understand the implications of bacteria in resilience, a genomic and experimental analysis was carried out on their biostimulant and phytopathogenic antagonist properties. Genome analyses of both strains indicated that they have the potential to synthesize bioactive compounds such as the battery of non-ribosomal peptides, polyketides, extracellular enzymes and phytohormones. These results were consistent with the antagonistic activities of both strains against the phytopathogens Botrytis cinerea, Colletotrichum acutatum, Fusarium oxysporum and Phytophtora cinnamomi. They also showed the capacity to solubilize phosphorus, fix nitrogen and produce indole acetic acid. This was observed in tomato seedlings grown from seeds inoculated with the mixture of strains which presented significantly greater length as well as wet and dry weight in comparison with the treatments individually inoculated with each strain and the control. Accordingly, the combination of B. safensis RGM 2450 and B. siamensis RGM 2529 showed synergistic biostimulant activity. These findings contribute new knowledge of the genomic and metabolomic properties taking part in the symbiotic interactions between these strains and the plants and uphold the combined use of both strains as a biostimulant.

Abstract
Preliminary antibacterial metabolite production screening unveiled that B. amyloliquefaciens MTCC 12,713 associated with the intertidal red alga Kappaphycus alverezii exhibited potential inhibitory effects against drug-resistant pathogens methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Four homologous siderophore types of bacillibactins were isolated from a heterotrophic marine bacterium through bioactivity-guided purification. All detectable natural product gene clusters in B. amyloliquefaciens MTCC 12,713 were analyzed by sequencing the complete genome of the bacterium. The studied compounds displayed broad spectrum bactericidal activity against multidrug-resistant strains with a range of minimum inhibitory concentration values from 1.56 to 6.25 µg/mL, whereas standard antibiotic chloramphenicol was active at 6.25 to 12.5 µg/mL. Structure-bioactivity relationship assessment showed that higher electronic values were responsible for antibacterial properties against the nosocomial pathogens. The 2, 3-dihydroxybenzoate (dhb)-assisted biosynthetic pathway of catecholate-enclosed bacillibactins was proposed through the bacillibactin synthase multienzyme complex catalysis followed by dimerization of dhbACEBF operons with 16 genes (~ 12 kb bacterial genome). The present findings recognized an undescribed 4-methoxy-11'-pentanoyloxy-bacillibactin C as a source of potential antibacterial agent for use against drug-resistant pathogens for pharmaceutical applications. KEY POINTS: • Bacillus amyloliquefaciens in association with Kappaphycus alverezii was isolated • Four antibacterial bacillibactin analogs were identified from symbiotic bacterium • 4-Methoxy-11'-pentanoyloxy-bacillibactin C showed potential antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Actinomycetes are a group of Gram-positive bacteria with a fungus-like morphology. Their natural habitat encompasses terrestrial and water areas, including mangrove ecosystems. This study aimed to assess the PKS and NRPS genes as the producers of secondary metabolites and to determine the target bacterial species using molecular DNA tests. Materials and Methods: In this study, we isolated bacteria from sediment samples from mangrove forests located on Karimunjawa Islands and in Semarang city, purified bacteria, screened for antibacterial activity, extracted bacterial DNA, amplified the NRPS gene, detected and amplified the PKS-I and PKS-II genes, amplified and sequenced the 16S rRNA, processed molecular data, and simulated a map of secondary metabolite producing genes. Results: Samples from the Karimunjawa Islands yielded 19 bacterial isolates, whereas samples from Semarang yielded 11 bacterial isolates after culture in different media. Further experiments identified three active isolates, which were termed PN.SB.6.2, S.SK.6.3, and S.SK.7.1, against pathogenic species of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes. Isolate PN.SB.6.2 was determined to possess three biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs), whereas the remaining two isolates, S.SK.6.3 and S.SK.7.1, only possessed two BGCs, namely, NRPS and PKS II. Conclusion: Products were estimated to be in the NRPS, thiopeptide, RiPP-like, siderophore, betalactone, terpene, Type III PKS, CDPS, and lassopeptide groups. DNA identification of the isolates found three species of actinomycetes with antibacterial potential, namely, Virgibacillus salaries, Bacillus licheniformis, and Priestia flexa.

Abstract
Lasso peptides are a unique family of natural products whose structures feature a specific threaded fold, which confers these peptides the resistance to thermal and proteolytic degradation. This stability gives lasso peptides excellent pharmacokinetic properties, which together with their diverse reported bioactivities have garnered extensive attention because of their drug development potential. Notably, the threaded fold has proven quite inaccessible by chemical synthesis, which has hindered efficient generation of structurally diverse lasso peptides. We herein report the discovery of a new lasso peptide stlassin (1) by gene activation based on a Streptomyces heterologous expression system. Site-directed mutagenesis on the precursor peptide-encoding gene is carried out systematically, generating 17 stlassin derivatives (2–17 and 21) with residue-replacements at specific positions of 1. The solution NMR structures of 1, 3, 4, 14 and 16 are determined, supporting structural comparisons that ultimately enabled the rational production of disulfide bond-containing derivatives 18 and 19, whose structures do not belong to any of the four classes currently used to classify lasso peptides. Several site-selective chemical modifications are first applied on 16 and 21, efficiently generating new derivatives (20, 22–27) whose structures bear various decorations beyond the peptidyl monotonicity. The high production yields of these stlassin derivatives facilitate biological assays, which show that 1, 4, 16, 20, 21 and 24 possess antagonistic activities against the binding of lipopolysaccharides to toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). These results demonstrate proof-of-concept for the combined mutational/chemical generation of lasso peptide libraries to support drug lead development. A new class II lasso peptide stlassin (1) was discovered and stlassin derivatives (2–27) were rationally generated by biosynthetic gene mutations and site-selective chemical modifications, expanding the structural diversity of lasso peptides.![]()

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bacillus strains are well known for their natural bioactive products that have antimicrobial and/or anti-cancer activities. Many of Bacillus' structurally unique metabolites can combat human diseases, including cancers. However, because Bacillus' metabolites are so abundant, few have been studied extensively enough to fully characterize their chemical constitutions and biological functions. METHODS In this study, we focused on the isolation and purification of a new Bacillus strain, and determined the effects of its metabolites on bacteria and cancer cells. Our study focused on a new strain of Bacillus isolated from deer dung. Based on BLAST results, this isolate belongs to Bacillus subtilis, and therefore we named the strain Bacillus subtilis NC16. Congo red assay was used to test the cellulase activity. The inhibition zone was measured to test the antimicrobial activity. CCK-8, wound healing and flow cytometry were used to test the anti-cancer activity. RESULTS Metabolites from Bacillus subtilis NC16 have both antimicrobial and anti-cancer activities. They can both suppress the growth of Trichoderma vride and Staphylococcus aureus, and inhibit the proliferation and promote the apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that Bacillus subtilis NC16 can not only degrade cellulose, but its metabolites may be sources of antibiotics and anti-cancer drugs.

Direct Antibiotic Activity of Bacillibactin Broadens the Biocontrol Range of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens MBI600. mSphere 2021; 6:e0037621.

Abstract
Bacillus amyloliquefaciens is considered the most successful biological control agent due to its ability to colonize the plant rhizosphere and phyllosphere where it outgrows plant pathogens by competition, antibiosis, and inducing plant defense. Its antimicrobial function is thought to depend on a diverse spectrum of secondary metabolites, including peptides, cyclic lipopeptides, and polyketides, which have been shown to target mostly fungal pathogens. In this study, we isolated and characterized the catecholate siderophore bacillibactin by B. amyloliquefaciens MBI600 under iron-limiting conditions and we further identified its potential antibiotic activity against plant pathogens. Our data show that bacillibactin production restrained in vitro and in planta growth of the nonsusceptible (to MBI600) pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato. Notably, it was also related to increased antifungal activity of MBI600. In addition to bacillibactin biosynthesis, iron starvation led to upregulation of specific genes involved in microbial fitness and competition. IMPORTANCE Siderophores have mostly been studied concerning their contribution to the fitness and virulence of bacterial pathogens. In the present work, we isolated and characterized for the first time the siderophore bacillibactin from a commercial bacterial biocontrol agent. We proved that its presence in the culture broth has significant biocontrol activity against nonsusceptible bacterial and fungal phytopathogens. In addition, we suggest that its activity is due to a new mechanism of action, that of direct antibiosis, rather than by competition through iron scavenging. Furthermore, we showed that bacillibactin biosynthesis is coregulated with the transcription of antimicrobial metabolite synthases and fitness regulatory genes that maximize competition capability. Finally, this work highlights that the efficiency and range of existing bacterial biocontrol agents can be improved and broadened via the rational modification of the growth conditions of biocontrol organisms.

Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26071959. [PMID: 33807235 PMCID: PMC8038006 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26071959] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2021] [Revised: 03/25/2021] [Accepted: 03/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Angucyclinones are aromatic polyketides that possess impressive structural diversity and significant biological activities. The structural diversity of these natural products is attributed to various enzymatic or nonenzymatic modifications on their tetracyclic benz(a)anthracene skeleton. Previously, we discovered an unusual phenylamine-incorporated angucyclinone (1) from a marine Streptomyces sp. PKU-MA00218, and identified that it was produced from the nonenzymatic conversion of a C-ring-cleaved angucyclinone (2) with phenylamine. In this study, we tested the nonenzymatic conversion of 2 with more phenylamine analogues, to expand the utility of this feasible conversion in unusual angucyclinones generation. The (3-ethynyl)phenylamine and disubstituted analogues including (3,4-dimethyl)phenylamine, (3,4-methylenedioxy)phenylamine, and (4-bromo-3-methyl)phenylamine were used in the conversion of 2, which was isolated from the fermentation of Streptomyces sp. PKU-MA00218. All four phenylamine analogues were incorporated into 2 efficiently under mild conditions, generating new compounds 3–6. The activation of 3–6 on nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) transcription were tested, which showed that 4 possessing a dimethyl-substitution gave most potent activity. These results evidenced that disubstitutions on phenylamine can be roughly tolerated in the nonenzymatic reactions with 2, suggesting extended applications of more disubstituted phenylamines incorporation to generate new bioactive angucyclinones in the future.

Abstract
AIM In the study, we investigated the regulatory effects of these genes (codY, comA, degU and spo0A) on the biosynthesis of three lipopeptides (bacillomycin D, fengycin and surfactin) in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. METHODS AND RESULTS The codY, comA, degU and spo0A genes in B. amyloliquefaciens fmbJ were knocked out. The results showed that the productions of bacillomycin D were significantly reduced compared with that of fmbJ. Their deletion induced great changes in the levels of transcripts specifying metabolic pathways, quorum sensing system and substance transport system in fmbJ. Moreover, overexpression of these genes improved the productions of bacillomycin D. In particular, the overexpression of spo0A enhanced bacillomycin D yield up to 648·9 ± 60·9 mg l-1 from 277·3 ± 30·5 mg l-1 . In addition, the yields of surfactin in fmbJΔcodY and fmbJΔdegU were significantly improved, and the regulatory factor CodY had no significant effect on the synthesis of fengycin. CONCLUSIONS These genes positively regulated the expression of bacillomycin D and fengycin synthase genes in strain fmbJ. However, codY and degU negatively regulated surfactin biosynthesis. Moreover, it was found that CodY had a concentration dependence on bacillomycin D synthesis. Spo0A might play a direct regulatory role in the synthesis and secretion of bacillomycin D. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study indicated that genetic engineering of regulatory genes was an effective strategy to improve the yields of antimicrobial lipopeptides and provided promising strains for industrial production of lipopeptides.

Abstract
Chemical investigation of a marine sponge-associated Bacillus sp. led to the discovery of bacillibactins E and F (1 and 2). Despite containing the well-established cyclic triester core of iron-binding natural products such as enterobactin, bacillibactins E and F (1 and 2) are the first bacterial siderophores that contain nicotinic and benzoic acid moieties. The structures of the new compounds, including their absolute configurations, were determined by extensive spectroscopic analyses and Marfey's method. A plausible biosynthetic pathway to 1 and 2 is proposed; this route bears great similarity to other previously established bacillibactin-like pathways but appears to differentiate itself by a promiscuous DhbE, which likely installs the nicotinic moiety of 1 and the benzoic acid group of 2.

Padayachee T, Nzuza N, Chen W, Nelson DR, Syed K. Impact of lifestyle on cytochrome P450 monooxygenase repertoire is clearly evident in the bacterial phylum Firmicutes. Sci Rep 2020; 10:13982. [PMID: 32814804 PMCID: PMC7438502 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-70686-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2020] [Accepted: 07/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs/P450s), heme thiolate proteins, are well known for their role in organisms' primary and secondary metabolism. Research on eukaryotes such as animals, plants, oomycetes and fungi has shown that P450s profiles in these organisms are affected by their lifestyle. However, the impact of lifestyle on P450 profiling in bacteria is scarcely reported. This study is such an example where the impact of lifestyle seems to profoundly affect the P450 profiles in the bacterial species belonging to the phylum Firmicutes. Genome-wide analysis of P450s in 972 Firmicutes species belonging to 158 genera revealed that only 229 species belonging to 37 genera have P450s; 38% of Bacilli species, followed by 14% of Clostridia and 2.7% of other Firmicutes species, have P450s. The pathogenic or commensal lifestyle influences P450 content to such an extent that species belonging to the genera Streptococcus, Listeria, Staphylococcus, Lactobacillus, Lactococcus and Leuconostoc do not have P450s, with the exception of a handful of Staphylococcus species that have a single P450. Only 18% of P450s are found to be involved in secondary metabolism and 89 P450s that function in the synthesis of specific secondary metabolites are predicted. This study is the first report on comprehensive analysis of P450s in Firmicutes.

Potashchelins, a Suite of Lipid Siderophores Bearing Both L- threo and L- erythro Beta-Hydroxyaspartic Acids, Acquired From the Potash-Salt-Ore-Derived Extremophile Halomonas sp. MG34. Front Chem 2020; 8:197. [PMID: 32266214 PMCID: PMC7100376 DOI: 10.3389/fchem.2020.00197] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2020] [Accepted: 03/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Four new lipid siderophores bearing both L-threo- and L-erythro-β-hydroxyaspartic acids, potashchelins A-D (1-4), were isolated from the potash-salt-ore-derived extremophile Halomonas sp. MG34. The planar structures of 1-4 were elucidated on the basis of extensive 1D and 2D NMR studies and MS/MS data. Potashchelins 1-4 contain a hydrophilic nonapeptide headgroup sequentially consisting of β-hydroxyaspartic acid, serine, glycine, serine, serine, β-hydroxyaspartic acid, threonine, serine, and cyclic N(δ)-hydroxy-ornithine, which is appended by one of a series of fatty acids ranging from dodecanoic acid to tetradecanoic acid. The absolute configurations of the amino acids of potashchelins 1-4 were determined by C3 and advanced Marfey's reaction, partial hydrolysis, and bioinformatics analysis, which revealed that potashchelins 1-4 bear both L-threo- and L-erythro-β-hydroxyaspartic acid. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the stand-alone β-hydroxylase, PtcA, and the fused domain with β-hydroxylase activity in PtcB are expected to be responsible for the formation of L-erythro and L-threo diastereomers, respectively. Additionally, utilizing a comparative genomics approach, we revealed an evolutionary mechanism for lipid siderophores in Halomonas involving horizontal transfer. Bioassays showed that potashchelin A and D had weak antibacterial activity against B. subtilis CPCC 100029 with an MIC value of 64 μg/mL.

A comprehensive genomic and growth proteomic analysis of antitumor lipopeptide bacillomycin Lb biosynthesis in Bacillus amyloliquefaciens X030. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2019; 103:7647-7662. [PMID: 31352508 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-019-10019-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/21/2019] [Revised: 07/05/2019] [Accepted: 07/09/2019] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
Lipopeptides (such as iturin, fengycin, and surfactin) from Bacillus possess antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral activities and have important application in agriculture and pharmaceuticals. Although unremitting efforts have been devoted to improve lipopeptide production by designing gene regulatory circuits or optimizing fermentation process, little attention has been paid to utilizing multi-omics for systematically mining core genes and proteins during the bacterial growth cycle. Here, lipopeptide bacillomycin Lb from new Bacillus amyloliquefaciens X030 was isolated and first found to have anticancer activity in various cancer cells (such as SMMC-7721 and MDA-MB-231). A comprehensive genomic and growth proteomic analysis of X030 revealed bacillomycin Lb biosynthetic gene cluster, key enzymes and potential regulatory proteins (PerR, PhoP, CcpA, and CsfB), and novel links between primary metabolism and bacillomycin Lb production in X030. The antitumor activity of the fermentation supernatant supplemented with amino acids (such as glutamic acid) and sucrose was significantly increased, verifying the role of key metabolic switches in the metabolic regulatory network. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis confirmed that 7 differential expressed genes exhibited a positive correlation between changes at transcriptional and translational levels. The study not only will stimulate the deeper and wider antitumor study of lipopeptides but also provide a comprehensive database, which promotes an in-depth analysis of pathways and networks for complex events in lipopeptide biosynthesis and regulation and gives great help in improving the yield of bacillomycin Lb (media optimization, genetic modification, or pathway engineering).

Abstract
Aromatic polyketides from marine actinomycetes have received increasing attention due to their unusual structures and potent bioactivities. Compared to their terrestrial counterparts, marine aromatic polyketides have been less discovered and their structural and biological diversities are far from being fully investigated. In this study, we employed a PCR-based genome mining method to discover aromatic polyketides in our marine bacteria collection. Five new atypical angucyclinones, fluostatins M–Q (1–5) featuring a unique 6-5-6-6 ring skeleton, were discovered from one “positive” Streptomyces sp. PKU-MA00045. The structures of fluostatins M–Q (1–5) were elucidated based on comprehensive spectroscopic analyses and the crystallographic structure of fluostatin P (4), which contains the most oxidized A-ring, was solved by X-ray diffraction analysis with Cu Kα radiation. Compared to the published 16 fluostatin analogues, fluostatins M–Q (1–5) contained a different methoxy group attached at C-7 and hydroxy group attached at C-4, enriching the structural diversity of aromatic polyketides from marine actinomycetes. Genome sequencing of Streptomyces sp. PKU-MA00045 revealed the biosynthetic gene cluster of fluostatins M–Q (1–5), which contained different genes and gene organizations compared to known fluostatin gene clusters, facilitating the investigation of the biosynthesis of the unique 6-5-6-6 ring skeleton in all fluostatins.
