Abstract
The aim of this study was to isolate and identify bioactive compounds through a bioactivity-guided analysis of extracts from Streptomyces strains. A bioactive extract from a Streptomyces species isolated from Amazonian soil, identified as S. collinus Tü 365 through the 16S rRNA and 23S rRNA genes, was selected for the study. The fermentation broth extract was partitioned and the bioactive fractions were further fractionated using chromatographic techniques (preparative TLC and HPLC). Through bioautography-guided fractionation, two actinomycins (D and X2) were isolated and identified by spectrometric (ESI-HRMSMS) and spectroscopic (NMR) techniques. The isolated substances were tested in the agar disc diffusion assay (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis and Escherichia coli) and by the microdilution method in microplates (Staphylococcus aureus and Mycobacterium smegmatis). Actinomycins D and X2 showed activity against M. smegmatis 16.0 μg/mL for both samples and against S. aureus, 1 μg/mL and 0.5 μg/mL, respectively.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Natural Product Research is to publish important contributions in the field of natural product chemistry. The journal covers all aspects of research in the chemistry and biochemistry of naturally occurring compounds.
The communications include coverage of work on natural substances of land and sea and of plants, microbes and animals. Discussions of structure elucidation, synthesis and experimental biosynthesis of natural products as well as developments of methods in these areas are welcomed in the journal. Finally, research papers in fields on the chemistry-biology boundary, eg. fermentation chemistry, plant tissue culture investigations etc., are accepted into the journal.
Natural Product Research issues will be subtitled either ""Part A - Synthesis and Structure"" or ""Part B - Bioactive Natural Products"". for details on this , see the forthcoming articles section.
All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
