Marine Bacterium Vibrio sp. CB1-14 Produces Guanidine Alkaloid 6-epi-Monanchorin, Previously Isolated from Marine Polychaete and Sponges.

ABSTRACT: Twenty-three bacterial strains were isolated from the secreted mucus trapping net of themarine polychaete Chaetopterus variopedatus (phylum Annelida) and twenty strains were identifiedusing 16S rRNA gene analysis. Strain CB1-14 was recognized as a new species of the genus Vibriousing the eight-gene multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) and genome sequences of nineteen typeVibrio strains. This Vibrio sp. was cultured, and 6-epi-monanchorin (2), previously isolated from thepolychaete and two sponge species, was found in the cells and culture broth. The presence of the 6-epi-monanchorin was confirmed by its isolation followed by 1H NMR and HRESIMS analysis. Theseresults showed the microbial origin of the bicyclic guanidine alkaloid 2 in C. variopedatus.
