Análises Moleculares de Linhagens selvagens e mutantes de Pestalotiopsis spp. associadas a plantas e basidiomicetos da Amazônia Brasileira.

Abstract

Fungi genus Pestalotiopsis can be found as parasites or endophytes, being quite disseminated to the various habitats. Bioprospecting of Pestalotiopsis spp. have demonstrated the potential of this strains in obtaining bioactive compounds as anticancer or antimicrobial, that due the diversity of secondary metabolites are capable of producing. At work we have expanded knowledge about genomics, proteomics and metabolomics Pestalotiopsis strains isolated from Amazonian environments. They were reactivated 33 Pestalotiopsis strains of LaBMicra collection of the Federal University of Amazonas - UFAM. Were evaluated about their morphological diversity (conidia structure), genetic (Its1 and Its2 / AFLP), protein (SDS-PAGE) and they secondary metabolites were evaluated for chemical profile obtained by mass spectrometry (APCI-MS ). Secondary metabolites were tested against tumor cells SKMEL-19, CAL-27, ACP02 and against strain of C. albicans CFAM - 1342, associating the results with yours metabolomic profile. The most promising strain was subjected to mutagenesis by UV (UVC) light induction. The 33 strains of Pestalotiopsis spp. were isolated from nine plant genera as Euterpe sp., Gustavia spp., Myrcia sp. Duguetia sp., Rollinia sp., Arrabidaea sp. Victoria sp., Pinus sp., and associated Basidiomycetes. The most representative species were P. mangiferae, P. microspora and P. clavispora with eight, seven and six strain respectively. The extracts did not showed promising results against any of the tumor cells and nine extracts showed activity against C. Albicans. The chemical profile assessed over 60 days showed that the strain P. microspora (P12 / AnspCg1.1.3a) isolated of Rollinia sp. initiates the stationary growth phase of 20 days of cultivation, and the cultivation time best for obtaining bioactive compounds is 30 days. The analyzes of the reduction of the carbon source, growth of mycelial mass and the pH of the fortified protein profile results confirmed that the strain arrive the metabolic apex with 25 days.The production of mutant strains PX was efficient, but the strains did not show anticandida activity in their extracts. The secreted protein profile was also modified proteins of 50 to 140 kDa being expressed with greater intensity. Through large-scale cultivation was possible positive evaluation by bioautography and CCDP isolation subfractions which analyzed by 1H and 13C NMR showed the presence of 3-phenyl-propionic acid molecule known for its ecological role in protecting the host against plant pathogens.
