Antibiofilm Metabolites from Marine-derived Streptomyces sp. ZS-A31.

A novel compound streptothiomycin F (1), and a new natural product, N-(5-nitropentyl)acetamide (2), were discovered alongside ten previously identified compounds (3-12) through solid fermentation of marine-derived Streptomyces sp. ZS-A31 based on rice. The chemical structures of compounds 1-2 were elucidated using 1D and 2D NMR, as well as HRESIMS data analysis. Evaluation of all isolated compounds for their antibiofilm and antibacterial activities against P. aeruginosa was carried out using microdilution and crystal violet staining methods. Results highlighted the weak potency of the known compounds lumichrome (3) and vanillic acid (7) in inhibiting biofilm formation.

New Alpiniamide-Type Polyketide with Antibiofilm Activities from the Marine-Derived Streptomyces sp. ZS-A65.

Two new alpiniamide-type polyketides, alpiniamides H-I (1-2), in addition to four recognized compounds, were discovered in Streptomyces sp. ZSA65 derived from the marine sediments. The planar structure and absolute configuration of alpiniamides H-I were elucidated using a combination of 1D, 2D NMR, HRESIMS data analysis, Mosher's method and ECD calculations. The antibiofilm and antibacterial activities against P. aeruginosa were evaluated using the microdilution method. Notably, Compound 2 exhibited strong antibiofilm property.

Cytotoxic and Antifungal Staurosporine Derivatives from Marine-Derived Actinomycete Streptomyces sp. ZS-A121.

A novel staurosporine derivate, streptomholyrine A (1), along with 6 known compounds were identified from the rice-based solid fermentation of marine-derived Streptomyces sp. ZS-A121. The planar structure and absolute configuration of streptomholyrine A were elucidated using a combination of 1D, 2D NMR, HRESIMS data analysis, chemical transformation, ECD and NMR calculations. Screening of all these compounds revealed their cytotoxic activity against HCT-116 cell lines, with IC50 values ranging from 0.012 to 11.67 µM, except for the known 1H-indole-3-hydroxyacetyl, which showed no inhibition activity. Furthermore, streptomholyrine A, along with two known staurosporine derivatives, k252d and staurosporine, exhibited activities against Candida albicans, with MICs of 12.5, 25.0 and 50.0 µg/ml, respectively.
