1. The effect of a number of aromatic polysulphonic acids on the kinetics of haemolysis of rabbit erythrocyte suspensions by crude staphylococcal α-toxin was studied at pH8·6 and 6·8. 2. All of the inhibitory compounds caused an increase in the prelytic lag time (τ) of the sigmoid haemolysis curves, an increase in the time to reach 50% haemolysis (t½) and a decrease in the maximum rate of haemolysis (Rmax.). The most inhibitory compounds caused a 50% decrease in Rmax. at concentrations between 0·1 and 0·2mm. 3. The effect of pH varied considerably: compounds (I) and (II) were almost equally inhibitory at both pH values, compounds (IV) and (IX) were more inhibitory at pH6·8 than at pH8·6, and compounds (VII), (VIII), (X), (XI) and (XII) were more inhibitory at pH8·6. 4. Increased time of premixing α-toxin with compound (I) caused increased inhibition. 5. An attempt was made, where possible, to relate the inhibitory activity to the structure of the test compound.

Abstract The metabolization of trans-2-hexenal - one of the main components of plant wound gases with antibiotic activity - was investigated for 5 different isolates of Botrytis cinerea PERS. The transformation products as well as the kinetics of their formation were analyzed. Isolates exclusively mycelium forming (Bc 1 and Bc 13) transformed tr-2-hexenal into tr-2- hexenol, while sporulating isolates (Bc 3, Bc 9 and Bc 10) converted tr-2-hexenal to hexanol-1. Basically the metabolization of tr-2-hexenal proceeded in the same way via the aqueous phase as in the gas phase. The transformation products tr-2-hexenol and hexanol-1 showed significantly lower toxicity against the tested B. cinerea isolates than tr-2-hexenal. In each isolate the end product of tr-2- hexenal conversion had the weakest inhibitory activity. The transformation reactions thus represent detoxification mechanisms for these fungi.

Eleusine indica (Linnaeus) Gaertner is a traditional herb known to be depurative, febrifuge, and diuretic and has been reported with the highest inhibitory activity against porcine pancreatic lipase (PPL) among thirty two plants screened in an earlier study. This study aims to isolate and identify the active components that may possess high potential as an antiobesity agent. Of the screened solvent fractions of E. indica, hexane fraction showed the highest inhibitory activity of 27.01±5.68% at 100 μg/mL. Bioactivity-guided isolation afforded three compounds from the hexane fraction of E. indica, namely, β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, and lutein. The structures of these compounds were elucidated using spectral techniques. Lutein showed an outstanding inhibitory activity against PPL (55.98±1.04%), with activity 60% higher than that of the reference drug Orlistat. The other compounds isolated and identified were β-sitosterol (2.99±0.80%) and stigmasterol (2.68±0.38%). The enzyme kinetics of E. indica crude methanolic extract on PPL showed mixed inhibition mechanism.

α-Glucosidase is an enzymes group that playing essential roles in the digestion of polysaccharide. Inhibitor of a-glucosidase can decrease polysaccharide digestion rate and therefore plays a significant function in preventing the development of diabetes (type 2). Piper crocatum Ruiz & Pav. is an essential herb applied traditionally in Indonesia to treat diabetes mellitus. This work evaluated the a-glucosidase inhibitory activity of P. crocatum leaves ethanol extract. Phytochemical component of the extract was also analyzed. The α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the P. crocatum leaves ethanol extract was examined by reacting its different concentrations with α-glucosidase and p-nitrophenyl glucopyranoside. Kinetics of the α-glucosidase inhibition was determined using a Lineweaver-Burke plot. Phytochemical in the extract was determined using GC-MS. Ethanol extract of P. crocatum leaves exhibited moderate α-glucosidase inhibitory activity compared with acarbose. Phytochemical analyses showed the presence of stilbene, linolenic acid, phenol, phytosteroid, and α-tocopherol. The competitive action of P. crocatum  leaves ethanol extract is due to its inhibitory effects on α-glucosidase. The stilbene and phenol compounds indicated responsible for anti-diabetic activity from P. crocatum leaves ethanol extract.

Twenty bromotyrosine alkaloids, including a new compound, 13-oxosubereamolline D (5), were isolated from the Thai sponge Acanthodendrilla sp. Their structures were determined by analyses of 1D- and 2D-NMR, high-resolution mass, and circular dichroism data. The complete 1H and 13C NMR assignments of 5,7β-dichlorocavernicolin (19) and 5,7α-dichlorocavernicolin (20) are described herein for the first time. The acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activity of all isolated compounds was evaluated. Only homoaerothionin (7) and fistularin 1 (10) exhibited inhibitory activity against human recombinant AChE ( hrAChE) with IC50s of 4.5 and 47.5 μM, respectively. The hrAChE inhibition kinetics of 7, the most potent alkaloid, showed increased K m and unchanged V max values, suggesting its competitive mode of inhibition. The spirocyclohexadienylisoxazole and the length of the alkyl diamine linkage were proposed as the crucial parts for its strong inhibitory activity. This finding indicates a therapeutic potential for 7 in acetylcholine-related diseases, most importantly Alzheimer's disease.

We have purified a novel class of protein that can inhibit the activity of endo-β-1,4-xylanases. The inhibitor from wheat (Triticum aestivum, var. Soisson) is a glycosylated, monomeric, basic protein with a pI of 8.7–8.9, a molecular mass of 29 kDa and a unique N-terminal sequence of AGGKTGQVTVFWGRN. We have shown that the protein can inhibit the activity of two family-11 endo-β-1,4-xylanases, a recombinant enzyme from Aspergillus niger and an enzyme from Trichoderma viride.The inhibitory activity is heat and protease sensitive. The kinetics of the inhibition have been characterized with the A. niger enzyme using soluble wheat arabinoxylan as a substrate. The Km for soluble arabinoxylan in the absence of inhibitor is 20±2 mg/ml with a kcat of 103±6 s-1. The kinetics of the inhibition of this reaction are competitive, with a Ki value of 0.35 µM, showing that the inhibitor binds at or close to the active site of free xylanase. This report describes the first isolation of a xylanase inhibitor from any organism.

Streptomyces, being one of the most promising genera due to its ability to synthesize a variety of bioactive secondary metabolites of pharmaceutical interest, here studied in relation to its genomic and metabolomic potential. Coinciding with the increase in sequenced data, mining of bacterial genomes for biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) has become a routine component of natural product discovery. Herein, we describe the isolation and characterization of a Streptomyces tendae VITAKN with quorum sensing inhibitory activity (QSI) that was isolated from southern coastal parts of India. The nearly complete genome consists of 8,621,231bp with a GC content of 72.2%. Utilizing the BiG-SCAPE-CORASON platform, a sequence similarity network predicted from this strain was evaluated through sequence similarity analysis with the MIBiG database and existing 3,365 BGCs predicted by antiSMASH analysis of publicly available complete Streptomyces genomes. Crude extract analyzed on LC-HRMS/MS and Global Natural Product Social Molecular Networking (GNPS) online workflow using dereplication resulted in the identification of cyclic dipeptides (2,5-diketopiperazines, DKPs) in the extract, which are known to possess QSI activity. Our results highlight the potential use of genomic mining coupled with LC-HRMS/MS and bionformatic tools (GNPS) as a potent approach for metabolome studies in discovering novel QSI lead compounds. This study also provides the biosynthetic diversity of these BGCs and an assessment of the predicted chemical space yet to be discovered.
