Precursor-directed biosynthesis offers opportunities to modify natural products and obtain structurally complex metabolites without the need for chemical synthesis. However, such opportunities are limited owing to the inherent substrate specificity of biosynthetic enzymes. The jadomycins are a family of natural products produced by the soil microbe Streptomyces venezuelae ISP5230. Their biosynthesis contains one step that is potentially non-enzymatic, namely, the condensation of a biosynthetic aldehyde and an amino acid that leads to a uniquely substituted oxazolone ring. Variation of amino acids in the culture media enables the production of a wide array of substituted oxazolones. These analogs have been shown to have a variety of biological activities against cancer cell lines and also against Gram-positive bacteria. Herein, we report the first isolation and characterization of jadomycin L and jadomycin L aglycone from 8 L of bacterial culture for solid tumor efficacy studies.

Abstract An actinobacterial strain named LG10 was isolated from a Saharan Atlas soil (Laghouat, Algeria). The aerial hyphae were yellowish-white on all culture media with rectiflexibiles spore chains, suggested that this bacterium attached to Streptomyces. Furthermore, LG10 contained chemical characteristics that were diagnostic for the genus Streptomyces, such as the presence of LL-diaminopimelic acid isomer (LL-DAP) and glycine amino acid. The hydrolysates of whole-cell included non-characteristic sugars. Comparative analysis of the 16S rDNA sequence displayed a similarity level of 100% with Streptomyces puniceus NRRL ISP-5058T. The antimicrobial activity of the LG10 strain was better in the culture medium MB5. Streptomyces strains are good sources of bioactive compounds with multiple biological activities.

Bauhinia Variegata

Background: Bauhinia variegata Linn. is a native plant of Asia and China. B. variegata is found in tropical regions of the world. It belongs to family Leguminosae. It is used for diarrhea, hemorrhoids, constipation, piles, edema, leprosy, wounds, tumors, etc.  Objective: The objective of the present study was to perform extraction of B. variegata flower and isolation of active constituents from the extract. Materials and Methods: The ethanolic extraction of B. variegata flower was performed using the Soxhlet apparatus. The isolation of active constituents from the extract was performed using chromatographic techniques. In column chromatographic studies, n-hexane- [dichloromethane (DCM)] (2:8) was used as an eluting system and further purified through thin layer chromatography (TLC). Compound A and B were isolated through chromatographic techniques, then the molecular formula and characterization of these compounds were carried out with mass and infrared (IR) spectral analysis. Results and Discussion: The percentage yield of B. variegata ethanolic extract (BVE) was found to be 20.8% w/w. The different fractions were F1 having 12.5 grams with n-hexane, F2 (17.1 grams) with CH2Cl2, F3 (21.2 grams) with EtOAc, and F4 (13.4 grams) with EtOH. Compound A and B were isolated from the solvent fractions of n-hexane-DCM (2:8) and EtOAc-DCM (1:9), respectively. The compound A was characterized as 3-hydroxy-6-methoxy-2-phenyl-4H-chromen-4-one. The compound B was characterized as 3-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-phenyl-4H-chromen-4-one. Conclusion: Thus, B. variegata flowers possess active components that need to identify their biological activities.

: Oxalis corniculata (Oxalidaceae) is a small decumbent and delicate appearing medicinal herb flourishing in warm temperate and tropical domains such as Pakistan and India. Main bioactive chemical constituents of Oxalis plant include several alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, cardiac glycosides, saponins, phlobatannins along with steroids. Due to its polyphenolic, glycosides and flavonoid profile, it is proved to be protective in numerous ailments and exhibit various biological activities such as anti-fungal, anti-cancer, anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial, anti-diabetic, and cardioprotective. Moreover, bioactive phytochemicals from this plant possess significant wound healing potential. Our current effort intends to emphasize on the immense significance of this plant species, which have not been the subject matter of clinical trials and effective pharmacological studies, even though its favored usage has been stated. This review proposes that Oxalis corniculata possess potential for the cure of various diseases, however, further researches on isolation and characterization of bioactive compounds along with pre-clinical trials are compulsory to figure out its pharmacological applications.

The purpose of this research is isolation and characterization to find potential bacteria which can produce the most optimal ethanol from the Arak Bali industry in Karangasem Regency, Bali. Bacteria were isolated by exposure method in open air using selective media Zymomonas Sucrose Medium (ZSMA) with the addition of nystatin as much as 0.18 g / L as an antifungal then samples were taken at three different points in one Arak Bali production location, namely the distillation place, the fermentation room for roomie, and the place of taking coconut juice under the coconut tree and the variation of time is 15, 30, and 60 minutes of exposure. Gas checking is done on the bacteria obtained to select its ability to produce ethanol. The results of the scanning of 11 best isolates using UV-visible spectrophotometry were fermented on 500 mL ZSM media for 10 days. BM1-CP14 is the best isolate to produce total ethanol of 15.33 mL through the fermentation process. The results of the characterization of BM1-CP14 isolates were Gram-positive bacteria in the form of bacilli, anaerobic and non-motile bacteria. The results showed that bacteria isolated from open-air also can produce ethanol. Keyword: ethanol, Arak Bali, airborne bacterial exposure, isolation, characterization, UV-Visible spectrophotometry

The current interest of the scientific community for the exploitation of high-value compounds from macroalgae is related to the increasing knowledge of their biological activities and health benefits. Macroalgae phenolic compounds, particularly phlorotannins, have gained particular attention due to their specific bioactivities, including antioxidant, antiproliferative, or antidiabetic. Notwithstanding, the characterization of macroalgae phenolic compounds is a multi-step task, with high challenges associated with their isolation and characterization, due to the highly complex and polysaccharide-rich matrix of macroalgae. Therefore, this fraction is far from being fully explored. In fact, a critical revision of the extraction and characterization methodologies already used in the analysis of phenolic compounds from macroalgae is lacking in the literature, and it is of uttermost importance to compile validated methodologies and discourage misleading practices. The aim of this review is to discuss the state-of-the-art of phenolic compounds already identified in green, red, and brown macroalgae, reviewing their structural classification, as well as critically discussing extraction methodologies, chromatographic separation techniques, and the analytical strategies for their characterization, including information about structural identification techniques and key spectroscopic profiles. For the first time, mass spectrometry data of phlorotannins, a chemical family quite exclusive of macroalgae, is compiled and discussed.
