Compounds isolated from salinispora arenicola of the gulf of California, México

[EN] The marine actinobacterium AMS370, identified as Salinispora arenicola by 16S rRNA amplified gene comparison, was isolated from sediments of the Gulf of California, Mexico. From its semi-polar extract, 8 known compounds were isolated: 4-Hydroxy-phenyl acetic acid (1), 5-Methyl-2-methylene-2,3-dihydro-1H-pyrimidin-4-one (2), 1H-Pyrimidine-2,4-dione (3), 3-amino-5-hydroxy-benzoic acid (4), 2-(4-Amino-imidazol-[4,5-d]pyridazin-1-yl)-5-hydroxymethyl-4-methyl-tetrahydro-furan-3-ol (5), 3-(4-Hydroxy-phenyl)-acrylic acid methyl ester (6), 3-Benzyl-6-isobutyl-piperazine-2,5-dione (7) and 5,8-epidioxy-(22E,24R)-ergosta-6,22-dien-3-ol (Ergosterol peroxide) (8). The chemical identification was performed by comparison of their NMR spectra against the NMR spectra of the original compounds. This is the first time that compound 4 is reported as a natural product obtained from the Salinispora genus. The crude extract and all the fractions obtained were tested for antibiotic activity against Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella sp. and antifungic activity against Candida albicans. Also, breast cancer (MCF-7), cervical cancer (HeLa) and colorectal cancer cell lines (HCT-116) were tested to determine their cytotoxic activity. Only the semi-polar crude extract and its fractions 5.1 and 5.2 were active against Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus.
[ES] La actinobacteria marina AMS370, identificada mediante comparación de las secuencias del gen 16S del ARNr como Salinispora arenicola, fue aislada a partir de sedimento del Golfo de California, México. De su extracto semi-polar, se aislaron 8 compuestos conocidos: ácido-4-Hidroxi-fenil acético (1), 5-Metil-2-metilen-2,3-dihidro-1H-pirimidin-4-ona (2), 1H-Pirimidin-2,4-diona (3), ácido-3-amino-5-hidroxi-benzoico (4), 2-(4-Amino-imidazol-[4,5-d]piridazin-1-il)-5-hidroximetil-4-metil-tetrahidro -furan-3-ol (5), Acrilato de 3-(4-Hidroxi-genil)-metilo (6), 3-Bencil-6-isobutil-piperazin-2,5-diona (7) y 5,8-epidioxi-(22E,24R)-ergosta-6,22-dien-3-ol (Peróxido de Ergosterol) (8). La identificación química fue realizada mediante comparación de sus espectros de RMN con los espectros de los compuestos originales. Ésta sería la primera ocasión que el compuesto 4 se reporta como un producto natural a partir del género Salinispora. El extracto crudo y todas sus fracciones fueron ensayadas contra Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella sp. y Candida albicans para probar su actividad antibiótica y antifúngica en el caso de la última especie. Asimismo se evaluó su actividad citotóxica frente a las líneas celulares de cáncer de mama (MCF-7), cervicouterino (HeLa) y colorectal (HCT-116). Solamente el extracto crudo semipolar y las fracciones 5.1 y 5.2 resultaron activas contra Klebsiella pneumoniae y Staphylococcus aureus.
