Hence, the aim of this study was to introduce marine microorganisms with the capability of producing antioxidant and cytotoxic metabolites. For this purpose, ten live sea cucumbers (Holothuria leucospilota) were collected from Larak Island, Persian Gulf. Then, their intestine contents were serially diluted and treated by heating (55°C). 100 µL of treated samples were inoculated on starch casein nitrate agar medium, which is supplemented with nalidixic acid and cycloheximide. The plates were incubated at 28 °C for 4 weeks and the colonies were purified. The antioxidant activity of extracted metabolites from the isolated actinobacteria was evaluated using DPPH (1,1-diphenyl- 2-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity assay and the cytotoxic activity was screened by Brine-Shrimp micro well cytotoxicity method. In addition, the cytotoxic effect was evaluated against HCT 116 and SW 480 cell lines by MTT cell proliferation assay. A new strain of marine actinobacterium represented maximum antioxidant and cytotoxic activity among 17 actinobacterial isolates. The ethyl acetate culture extract of -1 the isolate scavenged DPPH radicals with IC50 value of 211.2 µg mL . In addition, the extract exhibited high toxicity against HCT 116 and SW 480 tumor cell lines with IC50 values of 26.48 and 18.53 µg mL-1 respectively.

Prof. Ondřej Uhlík, Ph.D. Esame finale anno 2015 Abstract The investigation of phylogenetic diversity and functionality of complex microbial communities in relation to changes in the environmental conditions represents a major challenge of microbial ecology research. Nowadays, particular attention is paid to microbial communities occurring at environmental sites contaminated by recalcitrant and toxic organic compounds. Extended research has evidenced that such communities evolve some metabolic abilities leading to the partial degradation or complete mineralization of the contaminants. Determination of such biodegradation potential can be the starting point for the development of cost effective biotechnological processes for the bioremediation of contaminated matrices. This work showed how metagenomics-based microbial ecology investigations supported the choice or the development of three different bioremediation strategies. First, PCR-DGGE and PCR-cloning approaches served the molecular characterization of microbial communities enriched through sequential development stages of an aerobic cometabolic process for the treatment of groundwater

Abstract: Sea cucumbers are a class of marine invertebrates and a source of food and drug. Numerous microorganisms are associated with sea cucumbers. Seventy-eight genera of bacteria belonging to 47 families in four phyla, and 29 genera of fungi belonging to 24 families in the phylum Ascomycota have been cultured from sea cucumbers. Sea-cucumber-associated microorganisms produce diverse secondary metabolites with various biological activities, including cytotoxic, antimicrobial, enzyme- inhibiting, and antiangiogenic activities. In this review, we present the current list of the 145 natural products from microorganisms associated with sea cucumbers, which include primarily polyketides, as well as alkaloids and terpenoids. These results indicate the potential of the microorganisms associated with sea cucumbers as sources of bioactive natural products. Keywords: sea cucumber; bioactivity; diversity; microorganism; polyketides; alkaloids Citation: Chen, L.; Wang, X.-Y.; Liu, 1. Introduction R.-Z.; Wang, G.-Y. Culturable Sea cucumbers are marine invertebrates that belong to the class Holothuroidea of the Microorganisms Associated with Sea phylum Echinodermata. Globally, there are about 1500 species of sea cucumbers [1], which Cucumbers and Microbial Natural are divided into three subclasses: Aspidochirotacea, Apodacea, and Dendrochirotacea, and Products.

  • A Time Travel Story: Metagenomic Analyses Decipher the Unknown Geographical Shift and the Storage History of Possibly Smuggled Antique Marble Statues
    Annals of Microbiology (2019) 69:1001–1021 https://doi.org/10.1007/s13213-019-1446-3 ORIGINAL ARTICLE A time travel story: metagenomic analyses decipher the unknown geographical shift and the storage history of possibly smuggled antique marble statues Guadalupe Piñar1 & Caroline Poyntner1 & Hakim Tafer 1 & Katja Sterflinger1 Received: 3 December 2018 /Accepted: 30 January 2019 /Published online: 23 February 2019 # The Author(s) 2019 Abstract In this study, three possibly smuggled marble statues of an unknown origin, two human torsi (a female and a male) and a small head, were subjected to molecular analyses. The aim was to reconstruct the history of the storage of each single statue, to infer the possible relationship among them, and to elucidate their geographical shift. A genetic strategy, comprising metagenomic analyses of the 16S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) of prokaryotes, 18S rDNA of eukaryotes, as well as internal transcribed spacer regions of fungi, was performed by using the Ion Torrent sequencing platform. Results suggest a possible common history of storage of the two human torsi; their eukaryotic microbiomes showed similarities comprising many soil-inhabiting organisms, which may indicate storage or burial in land of agricultural soil. For the male torso, it was possible to infer the geographical origin, due to the presence of DNA traces of Taiwania, a tree found only in Asia. The small head displayed differences concerning the eukaryotic community, compared with the other two samples, but showed intriguing similarities with the female torso concerning the bacterial community. Both displayed many halotolerant and halophilic bacteria, which may indicate a longer stay in arid and semi-arid surroundings as well as marine environments.

This study was undertaken to address the paucity of information in this respect. Methodology and results: Culturable actinomycetes were isolated and cultured on HV medium. Polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE) targeting the metagenomic 16S rRNA was used to analyse the structure of the actinomycete community. Five culturable actinomycetes that were isolated belonged to the genus Streptomyces. They showed various degrees of similarity to the reference strains Streptomyces sampsonii (97- 99%), Streptomyces resistomycificus (97-99%), Streptomyces gougerotii (97-99%), Streptomyces erringtonii (97-99%), and Streptomyces albus (97-99%). The culturable actinomycetes isolates also showed differences in morphological characteristics as compared with the reference strains. The metagenomic analysis suggested that the actinomycete community was dominated by rare actinomycetes.
