A taxonomic study was carried out to clarify the taxonomy of representatives of a group of marine actinomycetes previously designated MAR 1 and considered to belong to the family Micromonosporaceae. The organisms had phenotypic properties consistent with their assignment to this taxon. The strains formed a distinct taxon in the 16S rRNA Micromonosporaceae gene tree and shared a range of phenotypic properties that distinguished them from members of all of the genera with validly published names classified in this family. The name proposed for this novel taxon is Salinispora gen. nov. The genus contains two species recognized using a range of genotypic and phenotypic criteria, including comparative 16S-23S rRNA gene spacer region and DNA-DNA relatedness data. The names proposed for these taxa are Salinispora arenicola sp. nov., the type species, and Salinispora tropica sp. nov.; the type strains of these novel species have been deposited in service culture collections as strain CNH-643T (=ATCC BAA-917T

Eggerthella is a bacterial genus of Actinobacteria, in the family Coriobacteriaceae. Members of this genus are anaerobic, non-sporulating, non-motile, Gram-positive bacilli that grow singly, as pairs, or in short chains. They are found in the human colon and feces and have been implicated as a cause of ulcerative colitis, liver and anal abscesses and systemic bacteremia. The type strain for this genus, Eggerthella lenta, was known as Eubacterium lentum prior to 1999. The genus is named for Arnold Eggerth, who first described the organism in 1935. Eggerthella has not been characterized well because of identification difficulties. It is an emerging pathogen that is likely to be studied and recognized more in years to come. It has a tendency to cause disease that spreads throughout the body. List of bacterial vaginosis microbiota Parte, A.C. Eggerthella. www.bacterio.net. Lau, S. K.P.; P. C.W. Woo; A. M.Y. Fung; K.M.

Bioprospecting natural products in marine bacteria from fjord environments are attractive due to their unique geographical features. Although, Actinobacteria are well known for producing a myriad of bioactive compounds, investigations regarding fjord derived marine Actinobacteria are scarce. In this study, the diversity and biotechnological potential of Actinobacteria isolated from marine sediments within the Comau fjord, in Northern Chilean Patagonia, were assessed by culture-based approaches. The 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that members phylogenetically related to the Micrococcaceae, Derrnabacteraceae. Brevibacteriaceae, Corynebacteriaceae. Microbacteriaceae, Dietziaceae, Nocardiaceae, and Streptomycetaceae families were present at the Comau fjord. A high diversity of cultivable Actinobacteria (10 genera) was retrieved by using only five different isolation media. Four isolates belonging to Arthrobacter, Brevibacterium, Corynebacterium and Kocuria genera showed 16S rRNA gene identity ...

Terpenoids, also known as isoprenoids, are a large class of natural products consisting of isoprene (C5) units. There are two biosynthetic pathways, the mevalonate pathway [MD:M00095] and the non-mevalonate pathway or the MEP/DOXP pathway [MD:M00096], for the terpenoid building blocks: isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). The action of prenyltransferases then generates higher-order building blocks: geranyl diphosphate (GPP), farsenyl diphosphate (FPP), and geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP), which are the precursors of monoterpenoids (C10), sesquiterpenoids (C15), and diterpenoids (C20), respectively. Condensation of these building blocks gives rise to the precursors of sterols (C30) and carotenoids (C40). The MEP/DOXP pathway is absent in higher animals and fungi, but in green plants the MEP/DOXP and mevalonate pathways co-exist in separate cellular compartments. The MEP/DOXP pathway, operating in the plastids, is responsible for the formation of essential oil ...

DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is a highly conserved biological pathway that plays a key role in maintaining genomic stability. MMR corrects DNA mismatches generated during DNA replication, thereby preventing mutations from becoming permanent in dividing cells. MMR also suppresses homologous recombination and was recently shown to play a role in DNA damage signaling. Defects in MMR are associated with genome-wide instability, predisposition to certain types of cancer including HNPCC, resistance to certain chemotherapeutic agents, and abnormalities in meiosis and sterility in mammalian systems. The Escherichia coli MMR pathway has been extensively studied and is well characterized. In E. coli, the mismatch-activated MutS-MutL-ATP complex licenses MutH to incise the nearest unmethylated GATC sequence. UvrD and an exonuclease generate a gap. This gap is filled by pol III and DNA ligase. The GATC sites are then methylated by Dam. Several human MMR proteins have been identified based on their homology to ...

Compared with the actinomycetes in rock corals, the phylogenetic diversity of soft coral-associated culturable actinomycetes is unexplored essentially. their potential in jadomycin synthesizing angucyclines. Under the assistance of useful gene prediction, one jadomycin B analogue (7b, 13-dihydro-7-O-methyl jadomycin B) was discovered in the fermentation broth of sp. stress A5-1. This scholarly study highlights the phylogenetically diverse culturable actinomycetes from the tissue of soft coral sp. as well as the potential of coral-derived actinomycetes in creating aromatic polyketides especially. Introduction Corals are believed as the rainforests from the oceans. Coral-derived natural basic products span an array of chemical substance classes (prostaglandins, diterpenes, alkaloids and steroids) [1] and screen a number of natural actions (antitumor, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial actions) [2], [3], [4], [5]. Actinomycetes are distributed in sea habitats like the ocean surface area broadly, ...

Similarly to their terrestrial relatives, marine microbes are a rich source of bioactive metabolites (antibiotics, antitumor drugs) and enzymes with different applications. For instance, cultivation of a marine actinomycete known as Salinispora tropica yielded a number of novel metabolites, not found before. One of these compounds, salinosporamide A, has antitumor properties and is currently being tested in humans for the treatment of cancer. Sequencing the genome of Salinispora tropica unveiled a number of genes coding for the synthesis of 17 potential metabolites; most of these compounds had not been detected in previous culturing of the microbe. Then, the researchers used the genetic information to guide a new chemical analysis of Salinispora cultures. The analysis uncovered an additional, novel compound (salinilactam), which had a structure corresponding to that deduced from the DNA sequence ...

Research in my laboratory is focused on understanding the production of natural products from Actinomycetes. Actinomycetes are a wonderful and diverse group of gram positive bacteria present in almost all environments. In particular my research group is interested in the genus Streptomyces because this genus alone is responsible for the production of a high number of clinically relevant specialised metabolites including antibiotics, anti-fungal, antihelminthic and anti-cancer drugs.. By understanding how these medically relevant compounds are made by the producing organism, we can manipulate these biosynthetic pathways and therefore increase their yield. This is essential for industry as in order to undergo clinical trials, biotechnology companies need to be able to obtain high quantities of the purified new drug to be tested.. We also have an interest on how these industrially relevant Streptomyces strains develop in their natural environment. Streptomyces contain an arsenal of specialised ...

In the era where large whole genome bacterial data sets are generated routinely, rapid and accurate molecular systematics is becoming increasingly important. However, 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing does not always offer sufficient resolution to discriminate between closely related genera. The SsgA-like proteins (SALPs) are developmental regulatory proteins in sporulating actinomycete, whereby SsgB actively recruits FtsZ during sporulation-specific cell division. Here we present a novel method to classify actinomycetes, based on the extraordinary way the SsgA and SsgB proteins are conserved. The almost complete conservation of the SsgB amino acid sequence between members of the same genus, and its high divergence even between closely related genera, provides high quality data for the classification of morphologically complex actinomycetes. Our analysis validates Kitasatospora as a sister genus to Streptomyces in the family Streptomycetaceae and suggests that Micromonospora, Salinispora and ...

Bacteria necessitate multiple signal transduction systems to sense the ever-changing environments and mediate the cellular response accordingly. The major bacterial signal transduction systems are one-component system (1CS), two-component system (2CS) and extracytoplasmic function (ECF) σ factor. Compared to 1CSs and 2CSs, ECF σ factors have only been identified much later and therefore the knowledge about their molecular mechanisms and physiological roles is less profound. This thesis mainly focuses on the study of ECF σ factors from the bacterial phyla, Planctomycetes and Actinobacteria., In the first two parts of this study, ECF σ factors from eight planctomycetal genomes and 119 actinobacterial genomes were classified and analyzed in depth. This led to the identification of eight novel ECF groups consisting of 202 protein members from Planctomycetes and 18 novel ECF groups consisting of 427 protein members from Actinobacteria, respectively. Many of these novel ECF groups were found to ...

Researchers found that there was no significant difference between groups for body weight gain, overall caloric intake, body fat, lean mass, or overall adiposity index. Rats that consumed sugar water consumed less of the solid food. As a result of this well-established compensatory behavior in Sprague-Dawley rats, all three sugar groups consumed a significantly lower percentage of energy from fat and protein compared to the control.. The 16s rRNA sequencing of fecal samples taken at post-natal day 80 revealed a distinct clustering pattern when comparing the sugar to non-sugar fed rats. Interestingly, when comparing the 3 different fructose-to-glucose ratio groups, there was no distinct clustering pattern observed. Researchers detail a number of shifts in the microbiome at the phylum, class, order, family, and genus level. For example, at the phylum level, Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria were elevated in the sugar consuming groups. At the class level, Actinobacteria, Bacilli, Alpha-, Beta- and ...

The gut microbiome uses a number of diverse mechanisms to alter the disposition, efficacy and toxicity of drugs and xenobiotics as follows (Carmody and Turnbaugh, 2014; Klaassen and Cui, 2015): 1) The gut microbiota may express enzymes that either metabolically activate or inactivate drugs. For example, sulfalazine used to treat gut inflammation is converted to its pharmacologically active form, 5-amino 5-salicylic acid by microbial enzymes. In contrast, digoxin is inactivated by a cardiac glycoside expressed by Eggerthella lenta. 2) The drug may be sequestered by direct binding to the bacterial organism. An example here is the sequestration of L-DOPA by Helicobacter pylori. 3) The drug may be metabolically reactivated by microbially expressed enzymes. A good example of this mechanism is provided by the chemotherapeutic drug irinotecan (also called CPT-11) (Wallace et al., 2010). In the liver, irinotecan is metabolically inactivated via glucuronidation. Within the intestines, however, it is ...

Recently Mycobacterium tuberculosis was shown to possess a novel protein modification, in which a small protein Pup is conjugated to the epsilon-amino groups of lysines in target proteins. Analogous to ubiquitin modification in eukaryotes, this remarkable modification recruits proteins for degradation via archaeal-type proteasomes found in mycobacteria and allied actinobacteria. While a mycobacterial protein named PafA was found to be required for this conjugation reaction, its biochemical mechanism has not been elucidated. Using sensitive sequence profile comparison methods we establish that the PafA family proteins are related to the γ-glutamyl-cysteine synthetase and glutamine synthetase. Hence, we predict that PafA is the Pup ligase, which catalyzes the ATP-dependent ligation of the terminal γ-carboxylate of glutamate to lysines, similar to the above enzymes. We further discovered that an ortholog of the eukaryotic PAC2 (e.g. cg2106) is often present in the vicinity of the actinobacterial Pup

Results Median concentrations of A. vaginae and G. vaginalis were not significantly different among various age groups (A. vaginae p=0.98 and G. vaginalis p=0.18) or different trimesters (A. vaginae p=0.31 and G. vaginalis p=0.19), but differed significantly among the vaginal flora categories (A. vaginae p,0.001 and G. vaginalis p,0.001) and HIV status (A. vaginae p,0.001 and G. vaginalis p=0.004). The presence of A. vaginae (OR=5.8; 95% CI 1.34 to 25.21 and p value=0.02) but not that of G. vaginalis (OR=1.90; 95% CI 0.81 to 4.43 and p value=0.14) was associated with HIV infection. An A. vaginae DNA concentration of ≥107 copies/mL together with a positive G. vaginalis result (≥100 copies/mL) best discriminated between BV-positive (39/220) and non-BV categories (181/220) with a sensitivity of 85% (95% CI 0.70 to 0.94) and a specificity of 82% (95% CI 0.76 to 0.88). ...

The most common signs and symptoms of Whipples disease include:. The following signs and symptoms dont occur as frequently but can indicate that the condition is getting worse:. Infection with the T. whipplei bacteria is the one and only known cause of Whipples. The bacteria will lead to the development of internal sores and cause bodily tissues to thicken.. The villi are finger-like tissues that absorb nutrients in the small intestine. When the villi begin to thicken, their natural shape begins to change. This damages the villi and prevents them from effectively absorbing nutrients. This leads to many of the symptoms of Whipples disease.. A diagnosis of Whipples disease is complicated, especially because symptoms are similar to other more common conditions that range from celiac disease to neurological disorders. Your doctor will try to rule out these other conditions before diagnosing you with Whipples disease.. ...

Whipples disease is a rare systemic infectious disorder caused by Tropheryma whipplei. We report a 68-year-old male with Whipples disease of the central nervous system following long-term antibiotic therapy and many years after the initial clinical onset. The combination of trimethoprim and sulphamethoxazole does not prevent or cure involvement of the central nervous system in all patients with Whipples disease. If relapse of the central nervous system occurs treatment with meropenem might be a useful alternative.

Avocado peel, a byproduct from the avocado pulp industry, is a promising source of polyphenolic compounds. We evaluated the effect of a proanthocyanidin-rich avocado peel polyphenol extract (AvPPE) on the composition and metabolic activity of human fecal microbiota cultured for 24 h in a bioreactor in the presence of high protein (HP) amounts and the effect of the resulting culture supernatants (CSs) on HT-29Glc(-/+) and Caco-2 cells. AvPPE decreased the HP-induced production of ammonia, H2S, propionate, and isovalerate and increased that of indole and butyrate. Microbiota composition was marginally affected by HP, whileAvPPE increased the microorganisms/abundance of phylum Actinobacteria, families Coriobacteriaceae and Ruminococcaceae, and genus Faecalibacterium. AvPPE failed to prevent the HP-induced decrease of HT-29Glc(-/+) cell viability and energy efficiency but prevented the HP-induced alterations of barrier function in Caco-2 cells. Additionally, the genotoxic effect of the CSs upon HT-29Glc(-/+

Many times after a rain, there is a distinctive odor in the air - a sort of musky smell. This pleasant fragrance is most common in rains that follow a dry spell. If you are a gardener, you may find this smell similar to the smell you sense when you turn over your soil. Good organic soils contain bacteria. One bacterium that is abundant in damp warm soils is actinomycete.. Actinomycetes are a key ingredient in the decomposition of organic materials in the soil. These bacteria thrive when the soil is moist. When the soil dries out, the actinomycetes produce tiny spores. These spores are part of their reproduction cycle. Rain kicks up these spores when the raindrops hit the ground and make them airborne. Air movements then disperse the spores and carry some of the spores to our nose, where we detect a pleasant aroma. Actinomycetes are very common, which is why you experience the pleasing after-the-rain smell in many locations.. Winds can transport odors from areas upwind of you. We also can ...

Microbes are extensively associated with insects, playing key roles in insect defense, nutrition and reproduction. Most of the associations reported involve Proteobacteria. Despite the fact that Actinobacteria associated with insects were shown to produce antibiotic barriers against pathogens to the hosts or to their food and nutrients, there are few studies focusing on their association with insects. Thus, we surveyed the Actinobacteria diversity on a specific region of the midgut of seven species of stinkbugs (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) known to carry a diversity of symbiotically-associated Proteobacteria. A total of 34 phylotypes were placed in 11 different Actinobacteria families. Dichelops melacanthus held the highest diversity with six actinobacteria families represented by nine phylotypes. Thyanta perditor (n = 7), Edessa meditabunda (n = 5), Loxa deducta (n = 4) and Pellaea stictica (n = 3) were all associated with three families.

The diagnosis is Whipples disease. This is a rare multisystem disorder characterised by weight loss, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, arthralgia and lymphadenopathy, though presentation may be very variable. It is caused by a Gram positive, PAS positive bacillus called Tropheryma whippelii which was identified in 1992.1. It has been reported in all age groups, though it is commonest in middle aged white males. Whipples disease commonly involves the gastrointestinal tract causing a dilated thickened intestine with villous atrophy and malabsorption, resulting in anorexia, weight loss, abdominal pain, anaemia, hypoalbuminaemia and rarely, clotting disorders ...

Whipple disease is a systemic illness resulting from bacterial infection by a rare species of bacilli, Tropheryma whippleii. The gastrointestinal tract is the most frequently affected organ although the disease can spread to joints, central nervous system, eyes and rarely, heart. The disease is clinically presented with gastrointestinal symptoms (diarrhea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite), polyarthritis, fever and weight loss. Ataxia and memory disturbances may be present in cases when the central nervous system is affected. Whipple disease is a progressively fatal disease, but once diagnosed correctly and treated promptly, it is completely cured.… Whipple Disease (Intestinal Lipodystrophy): Read more about Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment, Complications, Causes and Prognosis.

Their microbiological and molecular analyses identified five new Rubrobacter strains. The strains are partly involved in the process of efflorescence formation, where salt residues form on buildings, due to the loss of water after exposure to air for a prolonged period of time. Efflorescences lead to damage in the porous structure of the rocks and the gradual deterioration of these buildings.. Two of the newly isolated strains were then grown onto rocks to replicate the biodeterioration process in the laboratory. The Rubrobacter cells penetrated the mineral matrix and crystals formed in contact with the bacterial film. When the film separated from the rock surface after exposure to heat, it removed mineral grains, producing a mechanical deterioration. These three processes are characteristic of ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Structure assignment of lucentamycin e and revision of the olefin geometries of the marine-derived lucentamycins. AU - Cha, Jin Wook. AU - Park, Jin Soo. AU - Sim, Taebo. AU - Nam, Sang Jip. AU - Kwon, Hak Cheol. AU - Del Valle, Juan R.. AU - Fenical, William. PY - 2012/9/28. Y1 - 2012/9/28. N2 - A new lucentamycin analogue, lucentamycin E (5), was isolated from the culture broth of the marine-derived actinomycete Nocardiopsis lucentensis, strain CNR-712. The absolute stereostructure of 5 was assigned by comprehensive analyses of NMR data and by application of the advanced Marfeys method. The planar structure of 5 was analogous to lucentamycins A-D, whereas the olefin geometry of the 3-methyl-4-ethylideneproline moiety was found to be E, opposite of that previously reported. Consequently, a reinvestigation of the olefin geometries of the 3-methyl-4-ethylideneproline residues of lucentamycins A-D showed that the olefin geometries of the substituted proline functionalities must be ...

In this study, we investigated the functions of the individual RbpA structural domains to gain insight into the complex in vivo roles of RbpA. To study the roles of the RbpA NTT and CD, we truncated the N-terminal 71 amino acids of RbpA. The role of the RbpA BL was probed using a point mutation at R79, which has been implicated in the interaction between RbpA and DNA (16). Finally, we investigated the RbpA SID by using a point mutation at R88, which is one of the key residues needed for the interaction between RbpA and σ (15) but had yet to be studied in mycobacteria in vivo. We found that the function of each RbpA structural domain is required for M. tuberculosis viability and wild-type growth rates in M. smegmatis and disruption of the RbpA BL and SID functions causes a more severe growth defect than loss of the NTT and CD. Our data indicate that M. tuberculosis has a more stringent requirement for RbpA activity, similar to what we observed for CarD (5, 13).. We determined that the RbpA SID ...
