Abstract

Marine invertebrates, especially sponges, have been recognized as the source of marine natural products with various bioactivities. The problematic sustainability of the natural product research from sponges drives the research change from the sponge to the associated microbes. In the attempt to find new antibiotic candidates, we screened marine sponges for their bioactivities. A Lithistid sponge showed potential antibiotic activity. The difficulty in obtaining large amounts of Lithistid sponge samples hampered the development of potentially active compounds from this material. Several researches proved that sponge-associated microbial play an important role for producing active compounds. In this study, we focused on sponge-associated bacteria to find novel and potential candidates for antibiotics. In total, we isolated 16 strains of microbes from the Lithistid sponge. A preliminary study of antibacterial activities from the strains M4 SP3 121015 101F showed that a sample has a strong activity against Bacillus subtilis. Partial identification of the bacterium using 16S rRNA Sanger sequencing showed 100% sequence similarity to Staphylococcus equorum. The preliminary identification of substances contained in ethyl acetate extracts using GC-MS showed several substances such as fatty acid, phenol, sterol, and halogenated organic compound. Further chemical analysis of the active fraction using LC-MS/MS showed a putative compound with m/z of 443.07 as the major component and responsible for the bioactivity of the bacterium. The predictions of fragmentation suggested that the compounds were 5-Bromo-4-fluoro-2-methoxyphenyl)(5-iodo-3-thienyl)methanol. This study reported for the first time that the antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis showed by the substance produced by marine Staphylococcus equorum isolated from the Lithistid sponge. Nonetheless, further research for detailed characterization of potential compounds is indispensable.
