Abstract

Previous screening of novel antibacterial agents revealed that some bacterial isolates exhibited antibiotic activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria and that they showed antibacterial activity, even against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Among these isolates, one bacterial strain, BCNU 1204, was identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa using phenetic and phylogenetic analysis, based on 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequences. The maximum productivities of antimicrobial substances of BCNU 1204 were obtained after being cultured at $35^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0 for 4 d in King's medium B (KMB). Dichloromethane (DCM) and ethylacetate (EA) extracts of P. aeruginosa BCNU 1204 exhibited strong antimicrobial activity, particularly against gram-positive bacteria. The EA extracts exhibited broad-spectrum activity against antibiotic resistant strains. Fraction 5-2, was obtained by recycling preparative liquid chromatography (LC) and preparative thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and was identified as phenazine-1-carboxylic acid belonging to phenazines using gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Its minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were $25{\mu}g/ml$, $50{\mu}g/ml$, ${\geq}25{\mu}g/ml$, and ${\geq}50{\mu}g/ml$ for MRSA CCARM 3089, 3090, 3091, and 3095 strains, respectively. P. aeruginosa BCNU 1204 may be a potential resource for the development of anti-MRSA antibiotics. Additional research is required to identify the active substance from P. aeruginosa BCNU 1204.

신규 항세균물질을 탐색하는 사전조사에서 몇몇 분리균주들이 그람양성 세균과 그람음성 세균 모두에 항균활성을 보이며, 심지어 methicillin내성 Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)에도 항균활성을 나타내었다. 이들 균주 중에서 한 균주가 표현형과 계통분석을 이용하여 특히 16S 리보좀 RNA 유전자 염기서열에 기초하여 Pseudomonas aeruginosa로 동정되었다. BCNU 1204 균주의 항균물질은 King's medium B (pH 7.0)에서 $35^{\circ}C$의 온도 조건으로 4일 배양 후 가장 최대로 생산되었다. 항균물질을 각종 유기용매로 분획한 결과, P. aeruginosa BCNU 1204의 dichloromethane (DCM)분획과 ethylacetate (EA) 분획이 그람 양성 세균에 강력한 항균활성을 보였으며, 특히 ethylacetate (EA) 분획이 methicillin내성 Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)에 대하여 강한 항균활성을 나타내었다. Recycling preparative LC와 preparative TLC 로 활성물질 하나(분획 5-2)를 분리하여 GC-MS 분석한 결과 phenazine 화합물에 속하는 phenazine-1-carboxylic acid 로 동정하였다. 그리고 MRSA 균주에 대한 최소저해농도(minimum inhibitory concentration, MIC)가 MRSA균주인 CCARM 3089, 3090, 3091 그리고 3095 균주에 대하여 각각 $25{\mu}g/ml$, $50{\mu}g/ml$, ${\geq}25{\mu}g/ml$ 그리고 ${\geq}50{\mu}g/ml$ 임을 확인하였다. 그러므로 P. aeruginosa BCNU 1204 분리균주는 항 MRSA 항생물질을 개발하기 위한 잠재 가치가 높은 생물자원으로 기대되며, P. aeruginosa BCNU 1204 균주로부터 리더 화합물을 획득하기 위한 보다 많은 연구가 요구된다.
