Using Molecular Networking for Microbial Secondary Metabolite Bioprospecting
The oceans represent an understudied resource for the isolation of bacteria with the potential to produce novel secondary metabolites. In particular, actinomyces are well known to produce chemically diverse metabolites with a wide range of biological activities. This study characterised spore-forming bacteria from both Scottish and Antarctic sediments to assess the influence of isolation locati...
متن کاملMolecular Characterization of a Fungus Producing Membrane Active Metabolite and Analysis of the Produced Secondary Metabolite
Background: The majority of studies on soil Aspergillus concern the isolation and characterization of the antimicrobial compounds produced by this organism. Our previous studies indicated an isolated Aspergillus strain soil to be of interest, and this subject is further investigated here. Method: Soil samples of various locations in Iran were collected. Extract from Aspergillus sp. culture was...
متن کاملMetabolomic Tools for Secondary Metabolite Discovery from Marine Microbial Symbionts
Marine invertebrate-associated symbiotic bacteria produce a plethora of novel secondary metabolites which may be structurally unique with interesting pharmacological properties. Selection of strains usually relies on literature searching, genetic screening and bioactivity results, often without considering the chemical novelty and abundance of secondary metabolites being produced by the microor...
متن کاملBioprospecting for antituberculosis leads from microbial metabolites.
Microbial metabolites have been an important source of tuberculosis (TB) therapeutics, but the last truly novel drug that was approved for the treatment of TB was discovered 40 years ago. In light of the growing threat of multi-drug resistance, recent advances have been made to accelerate the discovery rate of novel TB drugs including diversifying strategies for environmental strains, and high-...
متن کاملBioprospecting for microbial endophytes and their natural products.
Endophytic microorganisms are to be found in virtually every plant on earth. These organisms reside in the living tissues of the host plant and do so in a variety of relationships, ranging from symbiotic to slightly pathogenic. Because of what appears to be their contribution to the host plant, the endophytes may produce a plethora of substances of potential use to modern medicine, agriculture,...
