PG - 5508-5512 LID - 10.1080/14786419.2020.1788554 [doi] AB - In our study, the anti-quorum sensing (QS) activity of fermentation broth from TRM B-02, a bacterium isolated from Taklimakan desert, was investigated using the biosensor bioassay on Chromobacterium violaceum ATCC12472. TRM B-02 was 100% similar to Bacillus subtilis subsp. Inaquosorum KCTC 13429((T)) by genotypic and phenotypic analyses. Based on anti-QS activity tracking, six known amicoumacins, named as AI-77-H (1), AI-77-F (2), amicoumacin B (3), amicoumacin C (4), AI-77-C (5) and bacilosarcins D (6), were isolated and identified. Among them, compounds 1-3 exhibited a better inhibitory effect on C. violaceum ATCC12472. Further research suggested that compounds 1-3 could significantly down-regulate the expressions of violacein operon A (vioA), vioB, vioD and vioE and up-regulate vioC. Docking experiments indicated that compounds 1-3 may act as an inhibitor of violacein biosynthetic pathway competitively inhibiting the binding of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) with the vioD enzyme.[Figure: see text].
