Cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities of secondary metabolites isolated from the deep-sea-derived Actinoalloteichus cyanogriseus 12A22.

ABSTRACT: A new deep-sea-derived actinomycete 12A22 was isolated from the sediment of the South China Sea which showed potential cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities. The actinomycete was identified as Actinoalloteichus cyanogriseus by investigating morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence. Two compounds, cyclo-(L-Pro-D-Pro-L-Tyr-L-Tyr) (1) and 2-hydroxyethyl-3-methyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (2), were isolated and characterized from the fermentation broth of the strain 12A22. Compound 2 exhibited significant inhibitory activities against a variety of phytopathogenic fungi (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum, Setosphaeria turcica, and Botrytis cinerea) and Gram-positi
