Abstract

:
(1) Background: Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 derived from seawater produces lydicamycin and its congeners. We aimed to investigate its taxonomic status; (2) Methods: A polyphasic approach and whole genome analysis are employed; (3) Results: Strain TP-A0598 contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid, glycine, and alanine in its peptidoglycan. The predominant menaquinones were MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8), and the major fatty acids were C16:0, iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, and anteiso-C15:0. Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 showed a 16S rDNA sequence similarity value of 99.93% (1 nucleottide difference) to Streptomyces angustmyceticus NRRL B-2347T. The digital DNA–DNA hybridisation value between Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and its closely related type strains was 25%–46%. Differences in phenotypic characteristics between Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and its phylogenetically closest relative, S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T, suggested strain TP-A0598 to be a novel species. Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T harboured nine and 13 biosynthetic gene clusters for polyketides and nonribosomal peptides, respectively, among which only five clusters were shared between them, whereas the others are specific for each strain; and (4) Conclusions: For strain TP-A0598, the name Streptomyces lydicamycinicus sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is TP-A0598T (=NBRC 110027T).

1. Introduction

The genus Streptomyces is the largest taxon within the phylum Actinobacteria, and the members are an attractive source of bioactive secondary metabolites. A large number of bioactive compounds have been discovered from them, many of which have been developed into pharmaceuticals and are clinically used [1,2]. Genome analyses of Streptomyces strains revealed that each strain has a large and linear chromosome encoding more than 20 secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters (smBGCs), even if it is known to produce only few secondary metabolites. This means that hitherto reported compounds are nothing more than only a part of the secondary metabolites that they can produce. One-half to three-quarters of smBGCs in Streptomyces genomes is polyketide synthase (PKS) and nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene clusters [3], suggesting polyketides and nonribosomal peptides are major secondary metabolites in this genus. Type I PKSs and NRPSs are large multifunctional enzymes with various catalytic domains, and the metabolites are synthesized according to the co-linearity rule of assembly lines. Hence, the chemical structures of the polyketide and peptide backbones can be bioinformatically predicted according to domain organizations of the gene clusters [4]. Because polyketides and nonribosomal peptides show various bioactivities, genome mining focused on PKS and NRPS gene clusters often leads to the discovery of new biologically active compounds.
In the search for new anti-methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus antibiotics from marine actinomycetes, Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 was isolated from deep sea water and found to produce lydicamycin and its new congeners, TPU-0037-A to TPU-0037-D, of polyketide origin [5]. The biosynthetic gene cluster (BGC) for these compounds was identified through analysis of its genome, and then their biosynthetic pathway was proposed [6]. In this study, we found that Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 is phylogenetically close to Streptomyces angustmyceticus with a 16S rDNA sequence similarity of 99.93%.
Nowadays, 16S rDNA sequence analysis has conventionally been employed to identify each producer at genus-level but the producers are rarely identified at species-level in natural product studies. However, it is important to classify antibiotic producers at the species level because relationships between taxonomic species and their secondary metabolites are useful information to prioritize strains as a screening source for bioactive compounds. Thus, we investigated the taxonomic status of strain TP-A0598 using a polyphasic approach and then surveyed PKS and NRPS gene clusters in the genome. We also discuss the similarity and difference of these smBGCs among taxonomically close strains.

2. Materials and Methods

2.1. Strains

Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 was isolated as previously described [5] and is available from the NBRC Culture Collection (NBRC-CC) as NBRC 110027 [6]. S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T was obtained from the NBRC-CC.

2.2. Phenotypic and Chemotaxonomic Characterization

To determine the optimal temperature and pH for growth, the strain was incubated for 7 days in BactoTM Tryptic Soy Broth (TSB; Becton, Dickinson and Company, Sparks, MD, USA) at 5 °C, 10 °C, 20 °C, 25 °C, 28 °C, 37 °C, and 45 °C and at pH 3 to pH 13, respectively. Growth in various concentrations of NaCl was also examined after 7 days of incubation in TSB. Chemotaxonomic experiments were conducted on the basis of a previous report [7]. Physiological and biochemical characteristics were evaluated using API ZYM, API Coryne, and API 50CH Biochemical Test Kits (bioMérieux, Marcy I’Etoile, France) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Assimilation of carbon sources at a final concentration of 1% (w/v) was tested using ISP 9 agar as the basal medium according to Pridham and Gottlieb [8].

2.3. Phylogenetic Analysis Based on 16S rDNA Sequences

The 16S rDNA sequence was determined as previously described [6], and EzBioCloud was used in the similarity analysis to type strains of valid species [9]. Phylogenetic trees were constructed using the neighbour-joining [10] and the maximum likelihood methods with Kimura 2-parameter model [11] via ClustalX, MEGA X [12], and NJplot.

2.4. Genome Analysis

Genomic DNA preparation and the whole genome shotgun sequencing of S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T were performed as described in a previous report [6]. The sequence redundancy for the draft genome was 103-fold. The draft genome sequence was composed of 43 scaffolds with a total size of 8.09 Mb. Draft genome sequence of S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T has been available in GenBank/ENA/DDBJ under accession numbers BLAG01000001-BLAG01000046. Digital DNA–DNA hybridization (DDH) between the draft genome sequences of S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T and Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 (BBNO01000001-BBNO01000020) was conducted using Formula 2 of Genome-to-Genome Distance Calculator [13]. Average nucleotide identity (ANI) values were calculated using the ANI Calculator (www.ezbiocloud.net/tools/ani) [14]. PKS and NRPS gene clusters were analyzed as described in a previous report [15]. Rates of PKS and NRPS gene clusters conserved between two strains (RC) were calculated as follows: RC (%) = Cab × 2 × (A + B)−1 × 100, where A, B, and Cab are the numbers of PKS and NRPS gene clusters in strain A, in strain B, and conserved between strains A and B, respectively.

3. Results

3.1. Classification of Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598

The whole-cell hydrolysate of Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 contained ll-diaminopimelic acid, glutamic acid, glycine and alanine. The major menaquinone was MK-9(H6) and MK-9(H8), whose contents were 53% and 36%, respectively. MK-9(H2) and MK-9(H4) were also observed as minor components (each at <10%). The major cellular fatty acids (>10% of the total) were C16:0, iso-C15:0, iso-C16:0, and anteiso-C15:0. These chemotaxonomic data corresponded to the feature of the genus Streptomyces.
Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 showed a 16S rDNA sequence similarity of 99.93% to S. angustmyceticus NRRL B-2347T (1450/1451, 1 nucleotide [nt] difference) as the closest species and formed a monophyletic clade with S. angustmyceticus in the phylogenetic trees based on 16S rDNA sequences (Figure 1). Phylogenetically close species were Streptomyces nigrescens, Streptomyces libani subsp. libani, and Streptomyces tubercidicus, which showed similarities of 99.79%, 99.79% (3 nt difference), and 99.72% (4 nt diffrenece) to strain TP-A0598, respectively. S. nigrescens and S. libani subsp. libani have been reported to be the same species [16]. These three strains of two species formed an independent clade, of which the position is close to that of TP-A0598. Streptomyces catenulae NBRC 12848T was also close to the two clades, although the bootstrap values are not high. Digital DDH indicated that DNA–DNA relatedness between Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and the four type strains are 25%–46%, which is much lower than the cut-off point of 70% recommended for the assignment of bacteria strains to the same genomic species [17]. ANI values between Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and the four type strains were 82.1–92.3%, whose values are also below the recommended threshold for species delineation (95%–96%) [18]. These results suggest Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 to be a novel genomospecies.
Next, we characterized the strain by comparing it with its phylogenetically closest relative, S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T. Strain TP-A0598 formed light yellow or vivid yellow substrate mycelia and white to grey aerial mycelia and produced a vivid yellow soluble pigment when cultured on trypticase soy agar. The morphological features cultured on the other agar medium are summarized in Table 1. The pH and temperature ranges for growth were pH 5–11 and 15–37 °C, respectively. The optimum temperature was 25–28 °C. At 37 °C, abundant sporulation was observed. The strain grew in the presence of 0%–5% NaCl (w/v). Strain TP-A0598 showed morphological, chemotaxonomic, physiological, and biochemical features different from those of S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T (Table 2).

3.2. PKS and NRPS Gene Clusters of Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T

Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 harbours two type I PKS (t1pks-1, t1pks-2), two type II PKS (t2pks-1, t2pks-2), one type III PKS (t3pks-1), two NRPS (nrps-1, nrps-2), and two hybrid PKS/NRPS (pks/nrps-1, pks/nrps-2) gene clusters in the genome as listed in Table 3. Pks/nrps-1 is already reported as the BGC for lydicamycins [6]. T2pks-1, t2pks-2 and t3pks-1 were identified as BGCs for spore pigment, oxytetracycline (oxy) and tetrahydroxynaphthalene (THN) (rpp), respectively. The other clusters are orphan, whose products have not been specified by previous studies. We predict the putative backbone for metabolites produced by nrps-1, nrps-2, and pks/nrps-2 as shown in Table 3 based on their module organisations and substrates of adenylation domains [4,15].
The genome of S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T encoded four type I PKS (t1pks-1, t1pks-2, t1pks-3, t1pks-4), two type II PKS (t2pks-1, t2pks-3), one type III PKS (t3pks-1), four NRPS (nrps-1, nrps-3, nrps-4, nrps-5) and two hybrid PKS/NRPS (nrps-3, nrps-4), as listed in Table 4. The sequences of t1pks-3 and t1pks-4 gene clusters could not be completely determined because their sequences were divided into three and seven scaffolds, respectively. However, all the open reading frames (ORFs) of t1pks-3 and t1pks-4 showed high amino acid sequence similarities to TsnB [19] (96%–98%) and ScaP [20] (89%–97%), respectively. Therefore, these gene clusters were considered as BGCs for trichostatin A and caniferolides, respectively. T2pks-1, t2pks-3, and t3pks-1 were identified as BGCs for spore pigment, trioxacarcin, and THN (rpp), respectively. Pks/nrps-3 showed similar gene organisation to that of BGC for guadinomine (gdn) [21] but did not encode all gdn genes. Hence, we predicted the product to be partial. As the other gene clusters were orphan, we predicted the backbone as shown in Table 4. Nrps-4 and nrps-5 were not be able to be completely sequenced.
Among the PKS and NRPS gene clusters found in their genomes, five (t1pks-1, t1pks-2, t2pks-1, t3pks-1, and nrps-1, highlighted in boldface in Table 3 and Table 4) were conserved between the two strains, whereas four (t2pks-2, nrps-2, pks/nrps-1, pks/nrps-2) and eight (t1pks-3, t1pks-4, t2pks-3, nrps-3, nrps-4, nrps-5, pks/nrps-3, pks/nrps-4) were specific in Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T, respectively. These numbers and the putative products are summarized in Figure 2. As Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 harbours nine gene clusters, five of nine (56%) were the same as those of S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T whereas four of nine (44%) were specific to Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598. Similarly, because S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T possesses 13 gene clusters, five of 13 (38%) were the same as those of Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598, whereas eight of 13 (62%) are specific to S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T. On average, PKS and NRPS gene clusters conserved between these two strains occupy 45%. We putatively define the rate as RC (rate of PKS and NRPS gene clusters conserved between two strains) for the discussion below.

4. Discussion

The difference in 16S rDNA sequences between Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 and S. angustmyceticus NBRC 3934T was only 1 bp. Unexpectedly, however, the two strains were classified into different species, and Streptomyces sp. TP-A0598 was revealed to be a novel species in this study. Therefore, here, we propose the name Streptomyces lydicamycinicus sp. nov. for strain TP-A0598. The description is given below this section.
Analysis of 16S rDNA sequences is conventionally used as a primary method to identify strains at the genus level. Recently, the similarity of 99.0% was proposed as a boundary to discriminate species in actinobacteria classification [22]. However, a 16S rDNA sequence similarity of >99.0% does not necessarily guarantee that both strains belong to the same species. For example, we have recently classified two strains with completely identical 16S rDNA sequences into two different species [7]. In contrast, there are also cases in which strains showing a difference of 1 nt in their 16S rDNA sequence are classified into the same species [15]. These examples support the notion that 16S rDNA sequences do not have enough resolution to provide definitive identification [22]. For species-level identification, DNA–DNA relatedness provides a clear-cut criterion for bacterial classification [13,16]. We have investigated DNA–DNA relatedness based on whole genome sequences between Streptomyces strains with >99% similarities in 16S rDNA sequences [7,15,23,24]. The relationship between 16S rDNA sequence similarity and DNA–DNA relatedness is shown in Figure 3a. Proportional relation may be observed but the correlation coefficient is not high (R2 = 0.3935), and many strains (grey and red dots) are identified as different species even though their 16S rDNA sequence similarities are >99.0% [7,15,22].
In our previous reports [15,23,24,25], we introduced two hypotheses: (i) Strains belonging to the same species harbour very similar sets of smBGCs; (ii) Strains belonging to different species share only a limited number of smBGCs and each the strain has many species-specific ones. Hypothesis (ii) was supported by the present study even though the 16S rDNA sequence similarity between the two strains is 99.93%. We showed the relationship between DNA–DNA relatedness and the rate of PKS and NRPS gene clusters conserved between Streptomyces strains (RC) with >99.0% similarities in 16S rDNA sequences. The relationship is clearly proportional, with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.9481 (Figure 3b). A DNA–DNA relatedness value of 70% is the borderline level at which one can discriminate the same or different species in bacteria [17]. Strains within the same species (blue dot) do not show low RC values, whereas strains classified to different species do not show high RC values. These facts strongly support hypotheses (i) and (ii), described above, respectively. The idea that there is no relation between species classification and secondary metabolites is still widespread. There are two possible reasons why this idea has taken root and continues to persist: (a) only an (or a very limited number of) actually produced secondary metabolite has been investigated and genome information-based comprehensive analyses have not been conducted; (b) the classification of used strains is inaccurate and/or based on only 16S rDNA sequences [26,27,28,29,30,31,32]. If we had focused only on 16S rDNA sequence similarities, we would never have found out about the clear proportionality between phylogenetic distance and RC (Figure 3c). To obtain enough proof of concepts to verify our two hypotheses, we are continuing similar analyses on accurate classification and smBGCs for other phylogenetically close strains in the genus Streptomyces.
