Decolorization of Triphenylmethane Dyes by Wild Mushrooms
Kang, Hyeon Woo,Yang, Yun Hui,Kim, Sang Woo,Kim, Soonok,Ro, Hyeon-Su 한국생물공학회 2014 Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering Vol.19 No.3
Triphenylmethane dyes such as Crystal Violet (CV) and Malachite Green (MG) are common textile dyes. MG, which is toxic to humans, is widely used in aquaculture as an antifungal agent. In this study, 56 mushroom strains from 12 species of wild mushrooms were examined on dye-containing PDA plates to evaluate their potential for the bioremediation of synthetic dyes. Pycnoporus coccineus, Coriolus versicolor, and Lentinula edodes showed fair growth on CV, but only a few survived on MG. However, a decolorization experiment in an aqueous system revealed that the growth on MG-containing solid medium did not directly match the decolorization of MG in the aqueous system. C. versicolor IUM0061 grew well on both MG and CV plates, but could not decolorize MG in the reaction mixture. Conversely, HPLC analysis revealed that P. coccineus IUM0032, which could not grow on the MG plate, completely mineralized MG within 3 days. A subsequent enzyme activity assay revealed a high lignin peroxidase activity in the reaction mixture, indicating that lignin peroxidase is the key enzyme involved in degradation of MG in P. coccineus IUM0032.

Since the ancient times the therapeutic application of honeybee venom (BV) is practised and persisted until the present days. Resistant bacteria are in emergence and some drugs no longer have an antimicrobial action. To purify the melittin known as antibacterial peptide, five major peptidergic subfractions were separated, purified and identified from the whole BV. We investigated the antibacterial activity of whole BV and purified melittin against Staphylococcus aureus by the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and the postantibiotic effect (PAE). The MIC of whole BV for S. aureus was 0.06 ㎍/㎖, respectively. The MIC of melittin was 0.06 ㎍/㎖ on S. aureus. The in vitro PAE of whole BV and isolated melittin were determined using E. coli and S. aureus. The PAE of whole BV against S. aureus were 3.45 h (1×MIC). The PAE of melittin against S. aureus was 4.35 h (1 × MIC). Also both whole BV and melittin killed S. aureus at 5 × MIC. The regrowth wasn't observed after 18 h. These results suggest that whole BV and melittin will be developed a novel antibacterial drug.

<P>Endophytes, important plant-associated mycobionts, have attracted a great deal of attention because of their bioactive secondary metabolites. Even though halophytes have been reported to overcome salt stress via associations with their endophytes, few studies have investigated the metabolites produced by the endophytes from halophytes. In this study, a dark septate endophytic fungal strain (JS0464), identified as Gaeumannomyces sp. by ITS sequencing, was isolated from the rhizome of a halophyte, Phragmites communis, in Suncheon bay, South Korea. This strain was cultured on a large scale and extracted with ethyl acetate. Chemical investigations of extracts of JS0464 led to the isolation of two glycosylated dialkylresorcinol derivatives (1-2), an anthraquinone derivative (3) and eight known compounds (4-11), which were identified by spectroscopic analyses incorporating one-dimensional/2D NMR and MS. Nine compounds showed significant nitric oxide reduction activity in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated microglia BV-2 cells, seven of which did not impair cell viability. The results suggest that endophytes from the halophytes could be potential resources for bioactive natural products.</P>
