Abstract
Seriniquinone was isolated as a melanoma-selective anti-cancer agent from a culture broth of the marine-derived bacterium Serinicoccus marinus CNJ927 in 2014. It targets the unique small protein, dermcidin, which affects the drug resistance of cancer cells. Due to its significant activity against cancer cells, particularly melanoma, and its unique target, seriniquinone has been developed as a new pharmacophore. However, it has the disadvantage of poor solubility in drug discovery research, which needs to be resolved. A new seriniquinone glycoside (1) was synthesized by the biological transformation of seriniquinone using the deep sea-derived bacterium Bacillus licheniformis KDM612. Compound 1 exhibited selective anti-cancer activity against melanoma, similar to seriniquinone, and was 50-fold more soluble in DMSO than seriniquinone.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Antibiotics seeks to promote research on antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances and publishes Articles, Review Articles, Brief Communication, Correspondence and other specially commissioned reports. The Journal of Antibiotics accepts papers on biochemical, chemical, microbiological and pharmacological studies. However, studies regarding human therapy do not fall under the journal’s scope. Contributions regarding recently discovered antibiotics and biologically active microbial products are particularly encouraged. Topics of particular interest within the journal''s scope include, but are not limited to, those listed below:
Discovery of new antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Production, isolation, characterization, structural elucidation, chemical synthesis and derivatization, biological activities, mechanisms of action, and structure-activity relationships of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Biosynthesis, bioconversion, taxonomy and genetic studies on producing microorganisms, as well as improvement of production of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Novel physical, chemical, biochemical, microbiological or pharmacological methods for detection, assay, determination, structural elucidation and evaluation of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances
Newly found properties, mechanisms of action and resistance-development of antibiotics and related types of biologically active substances.
