A Glimpse at Siderophores Production by Anabaena flos-aquae UTEX 1444.

ABSTRACT: In this study, a strain of Anabaena flos-aquae UTEX 1444 was cultivated in six different concentrations of iron (III). Cultures were extracted with organic solvents and analyzed using our dereplication strategy, based on the combined use of high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry and molecular networking. The analysis showed the presence of the siderophores' family, named synechobactins, only in the zero iron (III) treatment culture. Seven unknown synechobactin variants were present in the extract, and their structures have been determined by a careful HRMS/MS analysis. This study unveils the capability of Anabaena flos-aquae UTEX 1444 to produce a large array of siderophores and may be a suitable model organism for a sustainable scale-up exploitation of such bioactive molecules, for the bioremediation of contaminated ecosystems, as well as in drug discovery.

Project description:Cyanobacterial blooms that release biologically active metabolites into the environment are increasing in frequency as a result of the degradation of freshwater ecosystems globally. The microcystins are one group of cyanopeptides that are extensively studied and included in water quality risk management frameworks. Common bloom-forming cyanobacteria produce incredibly diverse mixtures of other cyanopeptides; however, data on the abundance, distribution, and biological activities of non-microcystin cyanopeptides are limited. We used non-targeted LC-MS/MS metabolomics to study the cyanopeptide profiles of five Microcystis strains: four M. aeruginosa and one M. flos-aquae. Multivariate analysis and GNPS molecular networking demonstrated that each Microcystis strain produced a unique mixture of cyanopeptides. In total, 82 cyanopeptides from the cyanopeptolin (n = 23), microviridin (n = 18), microginin (n = 12), cyanobactin (n = 14), anabaenopeptin (n = 6), aeruginosin (n = 5), and microcystin (n = 4) classes were detected. Microcystin diversity was low compared with the other detected cyanopeptide classes. Based on surveys of the literature and spectral databases, most cyanopeptides represented new structures. To identify growth conditions yielding high amounts of multiple cyanopeptide groups, we next examined strain-specific cyanopeptide co-production dynamics for four of the studied Microcystis strains. When strains were cultivated in two common Microcystis growth media (BG-11 and MA), the qualitative cyanopeptides profiles remained unchanged throughout the growth cycle. For each of the cyanopeptide groups considered, the highest relative cyanopeptide amounts were observed in the mid-exponential growth phase. The outcomes of this study will guide the cultivation of strains producing common and abundant cyanopeptides contaminating freshwater ecosystems. The synchronous production of each cyanopeptide group by Microcystis highlights the need to make more cyanopeptide reference materials available to investigate their distributions and biological functions.
