Marine-Derived Streptomyces sennicomposti GMY01 with Anti-Plasmodial and Anticancer Activities: Genome Analysis, In Vitro Bioassay, Metabolite Profiling, and Molecular Docking.

To discover novel antimalarial and anticancer compounds, we carried out a genome analysis, bioassay, metabolite profiling, and molecular docking of marine sediment actinobacteria strain GMY01. The whole-genome sequence analysis revealed that Streptomyces sp. GMY01 (7.9 Mbp) is most similar to Streptomyces sennicomposti strain RCPT1-4T with an average nucleotide identity (ANI) and ANI based on BLAST+ (ANIb) values of 98.09 and 97.33% (>95%). An in vitro bioassay of the GMY01 bioactive on Plasmodium falciparum FCR3, cervical carcinoma of HeLa cell and lung carcinoma of HTB cells exhibited moderate activity (IC50 value of 46.06; 27.31 and 33.75 µg/mL) with low toxicity on Vero cells as a normal cell (IC50 value of 823.3 µg/mL). Metabolite profiling by LC-MS/MS analysis revealed that the active fraction of GMY01 contained carbohydrate-based compounds, C17H29NO14 (471.15880 Da) as a major compound (97.50%) and mannotriose (C18H32O16; 504.16903 Da, 1.96%) as a minor compound. Molecular docking analysis showed that mannotriose has a binding affinity on glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) of P. falciparum and on autophagy proteins (mTORC1 and mTORC2) of cancer cells. Streptomyces sennicomposti GMY01 is a potential bacterium producing carbohydrate-based bioactive compounds with anti-plasmodial and anticancer activities and with low toxicity to normal cells.
