A myxobacterium strain AHB125 belonging to genus Sorangium cellulosum was isolated from Anhui area in China and identified with morphological analysis by electron microscopy and phase contrast microscope according to Bergey's manual of systematic bacteriology (8th Ed.). Its high-antitumor bioactivity metabolites was evaluated by bioassay-directed screening technique with B16 tumor cell line etc. Research results showed that it exhibited not only strong antitumor ability bioactivities and broad-spectrum antitumor abilities to B16, Bel7402, H446, SGC7901 cell lines, but also has selectivity and pertinence to B16 and SGC7901 cell lines. The compound was confirmed as epothilone B by HPLC and LC/MS analysis, compared to the epothilone B standard sample. Bioassay indicated that there were other high-bioactive substances in the metabolites.

Two myxobacterial strains (KH5-1 and NO1) were isolated from the activated sludge tanks treating municipal sewage wastewater in Japan. These strains were recognised as myxobacteria based on their phenotypic characteristics of swarming colonies and fruiting bodies. Phylogenetic analyses using the 16S rRNA gene revealed that strains KH5-1 and NO1 were affiliated with the genus Corallococcus, with the closest neighbours being Corallococcus exercitus AB043A (99.

Aim: Corallococcus species are diverse in the natural environment with 10 new Corallococcus species having been characterized in just the last 5 years. As well as being an abundant myxobacterial genus, they produce several secondary metabolites, including Corallopyronin, Corramycin, Coralmycin, and Corallorazine. We isolated a novel strain Corallococcus spp RDP092CA from soil in South Wales, UK, using Candida albicans as prey bait and characterized its predatory activities against pathogenic bacteria and yeast.

Their unusual structures include a trisubstituted cyclopropyl group and two oxygen heterocycles, a tetrahydropyran (THP) and dihydropyran (DHP). Herein we report a flexible modular approach for the total synthesis of ambruticins which is used to prepare ambruticins F and S as well as in the first total synthesis of 20,21-dihydroambruticin F.

Article Synopsis
- - Myxobacteria are adaptable bacteria known for producing a variety of natural compounds with interesting biological effects; a new strain, s54d21, was isolated from a wetland in China.
- - This strain was identified as a novel species through genetic analysis and designated as sp. nov (type strain s54d21 = GDMCC 1.1945 = JCM 39263).
- - Chemical analysis of s54d21 led to the discovery of three new pyrazinone compounds (hyalanones A-C) and a known compound (macrolactin A), with some exhibiting moderate cytotoxic effects against certain human cell lines.

Bacteriolytic myxobacteria are versatile micropredators and are proposed as potential biocontrol agents against diverse bacterial and fungal pathogens. Isolation of new myxobacteria species and exploration of effective predatory products are necessary for successful biocontrol of pathogens. In this study, a myxobacterium strain CY-1 was isolated from a soil sample of a pig farm using the baiting method.
