Bio-induced overproduction of heterocycloanthracin-like bacteriocin in Lysinibacillus macroides by Aspergillus austroafricanus: optimization of medium conditions and evaluation of potential applications.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Plants and microorganisms are at the forefront of natural exploitable bioresources for the discovery of novel bioactive compounds (BACs) to provide solutions to food and agricultural challenges. The present study aimed to produce a novel biotechnologically-relevant BAC from a mangrove sediment bacterium under optimized bioprocess medium conditions. The BAC-producing bacteria were isolated via the crowded plate technique, and medium optimization was performed via sequential statistics of response surface methodology (RSM). The RSM model predictions were optimized, validated, and scaled up in a 5-L bioreactor via submerged batch fermentation. The BAC was extracted with ethyl acetate, purified via silica gel column chromatography, and identified via semipreparative high-per
