Abstract

Abstract Aim The increased availability of genome sequences has enabled the development of valuable tools for the prediction and identification of bacterial natural products. Burkholderia catarinensis 89T produces siderophores and an unknown potent antifungal metabolite. The aim of this work was to identify and purify natural products of B. catarinensis 89T through a genome-guided approach. Materials and methods The analysis of B. catarinensis 89T genome revealed 16 clusters putatively related to secondary metabolism and antibiotics production. Of particular note was the identification of a nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) cluster related to the production of the siderophore ornibactin, a hybrid NRPS-polyketide synthase Type 1 cluster for the production of the antifungal glycolipopeptide burkholdine, and a gene cluster encoding homoserine lactones (HSL), probably involved in the regulation of both metabolites. We were able to purify high amounts of the ornibactin derivatives D/C6 and F/C8, while also detecting the derivative B/C4 in mass spectrometry investigations. A group of metabolites with molecular masses ranging from 1188 to 1272 Da could be detected in MS experiments, which we postulate to be new burkholdine analogs produced by B. catarinensis. The comparison of B. catarinensis BGCs with other Bcc members corroborates the hypothesis that this bacterium could produce new derivatives of these metabolites. Moreover, the quorum sensing metabolites C6-HSL, C8-HSL, and 3OH-C8-HSL were observed in LC-MS/MS analysis. Conclusion The new species B. catarinensis is a potential source of new bioactive secondary metabolites. Our results highlight the importance of genome-guided purification and identification of metabolites of biotechnological importance.
