ABSTRACT The draft genome of Bacillus sp. SPB7, which was isolated from the marine sponge Spongia officinalis, is presented. This bacterium is a producer of an antimicrobial cyclic diketopiperazine, (3S,6S)-3,6-diisobutylpiperazine-2,5-dione. The genome consists of 4,511 protein-coding genes, 63 tRNAs, 2 16S rRNAs, 3 23S rRNAs, and a single copy of 5S rRNA.

Marine sponge associated fungi are known as potential source of metabolites with various biological activities. Natural pigment is one of metabolite which produced by microorgisms. Several researches reported the antimicrobial activity from natural pigment. Unfortunatelly there are lack of information about marine fungi natural pigment and its producer. The aims of this research were to identify yellow pigmented Indonesian marine sponge-associated fungi, to extract the pigment, and to study the antimicrobial activity of the pigment against clinical MDR bacteria and clinical pathogenic fungi. Sponge associated-fungus isolate MT23 was successfully identified as Trichoderma parareesei. The fungal pigment could be extracted only in methanol with yield 6,22±0,29%. The pigment could inhibitted S. typhi and E. coli MDR strains. The biggest antibacterial activity was shown by concentration 1000µg/mL against S. typhi with inhibition zone was 4.03±0.06 mm.

Abstract. Balansa W, Wodi SIM, Rieuwpassa FJ, Ijong FG. 2020. Agelasines B, D and antimicrobial extract of Agelas sp. from Tahuna Bay, Sangihe Islands, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 699-706. The alarming growth of antibiotic-resistant bacteria necessitates the discovery of new antibiotics including those for combating life-threatening ESKAPE (Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacter sp) and fish pathogenic bacteria. This study aimed to identify antimicrobial compounds from an extract of a marine sponge collected from Enepahembang coral reef, Sangihe Islands, North Sulawesi, Indonesia. The sponge was identified by DNA barcoding as Agelas sp. and its extract was evaluated against three ESKAPE bacteria (S. aureus, K. pneumoniae, and A. baumannii) and three fish pathogenic bacteria (A. hydrophila, Edwardsiella tarda and Vibrio parahaemolyticus), using the standard disk diffusion method. It showed moderate to strong antimicrobial activity against S. aureus (25.3 mm), K. pneumoniae (15.5 mm), A. baumannii (20.2 mm), A. hydrophila (20.5 mm), E. tarda (22.4 mm) and A. salmonicida (21.2 mm). The extract was isolated by chromatographic techniques (column chromatography, flash chromatography, and high-performance liquid chromatography). The structures and relative stereochemistry of the two compounds were elucidated by HRESIMS, 1D and 2D NMR data analysis as well as by comparison with reported values. Unfortunately, limited amount of the pure compounds prevented us from further evaluating their antimicrobial activity against the test bacteria. Nevertheless, the crude extract's strong antimicrobial activity, especially against the test Gram-negative bacteria, suggests the importance of this finding in light of the recent antimicrobial drug scarcity but rapid antimicrobial resistance and the emerging paradigm of antimicrobial drug modification, redirection and/or repurposing for discovering new antibiotics particularly against the life-threatening Gram-negative bacteria.

In vitro antimicrobial screening of marine sponge (Porifera) Ircinia fusca collected from west coast of India, against selected bacteria and fungi was conducted in this study. Crude sponge extracts of the marine organism Ircinia fusca demonstrated activity against eight microbes tested. The extracts showing good antimicrobial activity are undergoing further analysis to identify the active constituents.
