Bioassay-guided fractionation of $CHCl_{3}$ extract from the fermentation broth of a sponge Mycale plumose-derived actinomycete Saccharopolyspora sp. nov., led to the isolation of two known prodigiosin analogs - metacycloprodigiosin (1) and undecylprodigiosin (2). These compounds exhibited significant cytotoxic activities against five cancer cell lines: P388, HL60, A-549, BEL­7402, and SPCA4. This is the first report on the significant cytotoxicity of metacycloprodigiosin (1) against human cancer cell lines.

Comprehensive chemical analysis of extracts and fractions of marine actinomycete strains led to the discovery of a new minor secondary metabolite, salternamide E (1), from a saltern-derived halophilic Streptomyces strain. The planar structure of salternamide E (1) was elucidated by a combinational analysis of spectroscopic data including NMR, MS, UV, and IR. The absolute configuration of salternamide E (1) was determined by circular dichroism spectroscopic analysis. Salternamide E displayed weak cytotoxicity against various human carcinoma cell lines.

Compared to their terrestrial and marine counterparts, little is known about the capacity of freshwater-derived actinomycete bacteria to produce novel secondary metabolites. In the current study, we highlight the disparities that exist between cultivation-independent and -dependent analyses of actinomycete communities from four locations in Lake Michigan sediment. Furthermore, through phylogenetic analysis of strains isolated from these locations, we identified a Streptomyces sp., strain B025, as being distinct from other Streptomyces spp. isolated from sediment. Upon fermentation this strain produced a rare class of eight-membered lactone secondary metabolites, which have been for their antitumor properties. We used spectroscopic and chemical derivitization techniques to characterize octalactin B (1) in addition to its corresponding novel, unnatural degradation product (2).

LC/MS approach targeting secondary metabolites of bacterial strain resulted in the discovery of boholamide A (1), from the culture of marine actinomycete strain which was isolated from a tidal mudflat in Muan, Republic of Korea. Boholamide A (1), a cyclodepsipeptide with HDMN, APD, glycine, and valine was structurally determined by using 1D/2D NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and UV spectroscopy. Boholamide A (1) showed the inhibitory activity against Bacillus subtilis, with IC₅₀ value of 0.08 mM.

An antiproliferative agent, streptochlorin, was isolated from the fermentation broth of a marine actinomycete isolated from marine sediment. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that the strain belongs to the genus Streptomyces. Bioactivity guided fractionation of the culture extract by solvent partitioning, ODS open flash chromatography, and reversed-phase HPLC gave a pure compound, streptochlorin. Its structure was elucidated by extensive 2D NMR and mass spectral analyses. Streptochlorin exhibited significant antiproliferative activity against human cultured cell lines.

Angiogenesis is an essential step in tumor progress and metastasis. Accordingly, small molecules that inhibit angiogenesis would appear to be a promising way to cure angiogenesis-related diseases, including cancer. In the present study, we report that streptochlorin, a small molecule from marine actinomycete, exhibits a potent antiangiogenic activity. The compound potently inhibited endothelial cell invasion and tube formation stimulated with vascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) at low micromolar concentrations where it showed no cytotoxicity to the cells. In addition, streptochlorin inhibited TNF-${\alpha}$-induced $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation in the newly developed cell-based reporter gene assay. These data demonstrate that streptochlorin is a new inhibitor of $NF-{\kappa}B$ activation and can be a basis for the development of novel anti-angiogenic agents.

1-Acetyl-$\beta$-carboline was isolated as an anti-MRSA agent from the fermentation broth of a marine actinomycete isolated from marine sediment. The producing strain was identified to be Streptomyces sp. by phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence. The anti-MRSA agent was isolated by bioactivity-guided fractionation of the culture extract by solvent partitioning, ODS open flash chromatography, and purification with a reversed-phase HPLC. Its structure was elucidated by extensive 2D NMR and mass spectral analyses. Combination of 1-acetyl-$\beta$-carboline with ampicillin exhibited synergistic antibacterial activity against MRSA.

This paper presents the complete genome sequence of a novel marine actinomycete, Streptomyces sp. MMBL 11-1. The genome of Streptomyces sp. MMBL 11-1 was obtained through next-generation sequencing using the PacBio Sequel system and Illumina platform provided by Macrogen, Korea. The assembled genome consists of five contigs, with a total length of 8,496,900 bp and a G+C content of 71.6%. The genome harbors multiple biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) associated with producing microbial natural products (MNPs). The comprehensive genomic information of this type of strain will serve as a valuable resource for identifying other marine actinomycetes strains.

Marine actinomycetes isolated from seaweed were screened for growth activation effects on the biodiesel-producing microalgae Dunaliella salina. Of the 98 actinomycetes studied, strain 288-11 isolated from the rhizosphere of Undaria pinnatifida showed potent growth activation. The strain was identified as Streptomyces anulatus based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The cell density increased up to 2.1-fold with the addition of 1 mg/mL of extract to the medium. To understand the effect of adding S. anulatus extract, the gross biochemical composition and fatty acids of D. salina were determined.
