Özet:
Secondary metabolites are natural products with low molecular weight produced by different organisms. These metabolites have a wide variety of bioactivities because of their adaptive roles in the nature. These properties make secondary metabolites important source in drug discovery studies. Streptomyces genus, on the other hand, attracts attention due to their ability to produce many secondary metabolites for the treatment of various diseases, especially infectious diseases and cancer. However, secondary metabolism is not fully expressed under standard laboratory conditions as in nature. This phenomenon limits the discovery of new/novel bioactive molecules from the microbial sources. In this study, a previously studied marine derived actinobacterium, namely Streptomyces cacaoi, was investigated further to discover new antimicrobial metabolites via medium and temperature optimization using Box Behnken design. As a result, GPM medium containing 2.25% glycerol, 1% peptone water, 0.2% CaCO3, 0.1% MgCl2 in distilled water was found to provide the highest chemical diversity with potent bioactivity at 30oC. In subsequent studies, inductive effects of some microorganisms and inorganic compounds on secondary metabolism were also determined. Using optimized conditions, a larger fermentation study was undertaken (25 L) followed by extraction and isolation procedures. Sixteen metabolites were purified by chromatographic methods, and structures of the isolates were elucidated by spectral methods. Thirteen compounds, five of which were new, were members of polyketide-type polyether antibiotics. The structures of other molecules were determined as cyclo(Thr-Trp), 6-hydroxy-6-methyloctanoic acid, and 5-hydroxy-1,6-diazacycloundec-5-en-2-one, and all were found to be new. In antimicrobial tests, most polyethers were found to be active against Gram-positive bacteria. In particular, two new polyethers SC-EG-05 and SC-EG-07 showed higher antimicrobial activity than widely used antibiotic vancomycin
