Recent Developments and Future Prospects of Natural Antimicrobial Bioactive Metabolites Obtained from Endophytic Bacterial Isolate

Adathoda beddomei (Adosa), a kind of softwood, evergreen, perennial shrub, has been used as a source of endophyte bacteria. Adhatoda beddomei has a wide variety of chemicals, including anthocyanins, aminophylline, alkaloids, cardiac glycosides, isoprenaline, triterpenoids, resins, flavonoids, tannins, sterol, saponins, etc. The root, stem, and leaf parts of Adathoda beddomei are most often used in indigenous medicine. Moreover, the root bark is also used to cure several conditions, including leprosy, fever, and bleeding. Some important bioactive metabolites were obtained from endophytes bacteria and analyzed through various techniques (NMR, MASS, FTIR, HPLC, and UV- spectrophotometer) for their bioactive secondary metabolites. In silico calculation was performed to reveal bioactive metabolites with the potential to be antibacterial, and their primary mode of action may include dissolving bacterial and fungal cell walls. The antimicrobial activity of Adathoda beddomei was demonstrated against different pathogenic and non-pathogenic bacteria. Identification of endophytes was done based on external morphological characteristics with the help of a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Natural compounds derived from endophyte bacteria with a very low molecular mass can be used to discover new and important structures for different pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals.
