Characterization and bioactive component analysis of filamentous bacterium XJ-16.

Actinomycetes, which can produce a variety of bioactive compounds in the metabolic process, is one of the important sources of novel drugs, enzymes, anti-tumor drugs and enzyme inhibitors. It has been the focus of researchers to find and develop with special characters. Strain XJ-16 is a blue alkali-resistant filamentous bacterium with high antimicrobial activity isolated from saline-alkali land of Xinjiang. Based on the classification, the enzyme production, metabolite antibacterial activity, and antibacterial substance isolation of XJ-16 were explored. which showed that XJ-16 belongs to the blue group of sp, and it can secrete cellulase, lipase, urease, protease, catalase and oxidase during metabolism. In addition, the bacteriostatic substance secreted by the strain XJ-16 showed inhibitory effects against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as the yeast . Then it was found that the bacteriostasis produced by XJ-16 has strong tolerance to acid, weak tolerance to alkali, and easy to be inactivated. After tested by HPLC, the retention time of antimicrobial substance was 13.261 min. This study provides new research ideas and theoretical support for searching for new antibacterial compounds and further developing the blue alkaline XJ-16.
