RESUMEN
Rhizophora extracts have several potential biological activities, and their metabolites can be used in the pharmaceutical industry. Extracts of Rhizophora species obtained from mangroves have shown prospective activity against Staphylococcus aureus. This study aimed to investigate the chemical profile of Rhizophora mangle leaves from fringe, basin, and transition mangrove zones and their bactericidal/bacteriostatic potential against S. aureus. R. mangle leaves were collected monthly in 2018 from litterfall in three different zones of the mangrove of Guaratiba State Reserve: fringe, basin, and transition. Extracts were prepared from the material collected in October and December for LC-HRMS/MS analysis, and dereplication was performed using a molecular library search and the classical molecular networking GNPS platform. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of the aqueous extract of R. mangle against S. aureus were determined. No S. aureus growth was observed compared to the control for extracts collected from September to December. Different compounds were annotated in each region, yet a marked presence of phenolic compounds was noted, among them glycosylated flavonoid derivatives of quercetin and kaempferol. The results suggest bactericidal/bacteriostatic activity for extracts of R. mangle leaves collected in 2018 from three mangrove forest zones.
RESUMEN
Brucella intermedia/Ochrobactrum intermedium strain DF13 was isolated from Brazilian soil and is able to degrade 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). Here, we report on its genome sequence, with 4,570,268 bp and a 57.8% G+C content.
RESUMEN
Enterobacter hormaechei strain MG02 was isolated from a mixed culture collected from soil with a history of pesticide application. This strain degrades 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). Here, we report on its genome, which has 4,923,875 bp and 55.4% G+C content.
