Abstract

Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are environmental microorganisms, also known as opportunistic pathogens, found in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. The emergence of antibiotic resistance is increased by prolonged antibiotic treatment for NTM infections. Therefore, alternative sources of new antibiotics are essential for the treatment of NTM infections. A marine actinobacterium, Streptomyces sp. BTA 1-131, isolated from a marine sponge, Melophlus sarasinorum, has been reported as a potential source of antibacterials and anticancer agents. The present study aimed to investigate the potential of Streptomyces sp. BTA 1-131 against two NTMs: Mycobacterium smegmatis and Mycobacterium fortuitum. Streptomyces sp. BTA 1-131 was fermented in three cultivation media (SYP, ISP2, and YS), and the secondary metabolites were extracted using methanol. The bioactivity screening showed inhibition of all methanolic extracts against the growth of M. smegmatis and M. fortuitum. The methanolic extract, which could inhibit both mycobacteria, was a crude extract derived from SYP liquid medium fermentation. The isolated compounds in this study were preliminarily identified using thin-layer chromatography (TLC). The TLC results showed different potential compounds in the crude extracts of Streptomyces sp. BTA 1-131 also highlighted the impact of the fermentation medium on the production of metabolites from Streptomyces. This study also added knowledge about the importance of the Indonesian marine actinobacterium Streptomyces sp. BTA 1-131 as a promising producer of anti-NTM compounds.

Abstract

Pectinase is used in a variety of industries, including fruit juice production, textile processing, papermaking, biodegumming, coffee and tea manufacturing, medicines, feed, and nutraceuticals. The demand for pectinase enzymes grows year after year. Industrial applications require high-activity enzymes that can increase considerable product yields while also improving based on needs and byproduct use. Indonesia's industry continues to rely on imported pectinase enzymes. Indonesia, on the other hand, possesses megabiodiversity, particularly marine microorganisms, which have the potential to provide new enzymes with high activity for industrial applications. This work aims to undertake bioprospecting of marine actinomycetes producing pectinase enzymes that have the capacity to hydrolyze pectin polymer, both from commercial and biomass sources. A total of 20 marine actinomycetes isolates from sediment, seawater, and sponges were bioprospected, and one isolate was selected with high pectinase activity (BLH 1.20), which was then used to characterize pH, temperature, hydrolysis analysis on pectin polymers, and isolate identification using 16s rRNA analysis. The selected isolate (BLH 1.20) performed best in a sodium phosphate buffer with a pH of 6.0 and a temperature of 30°C, achieving an activity of 5.4 U/mL. The 16S rRNA analysis revealed that the isolate is from the genus Streptomyces and the species Streptomyces sampsonii. Keywords: bioprospecting, marine Actinomycetes, pectinase, Streptomyces sampsonii
