Hahella is one characteristic genus under the Hahellaceae family and shows a good potential for synthesizing new natural products. In this study, we examined the distribution of the secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene cluster (SMBGC) under Hahella with anti-SMASH. The results derived from five genomes released 70 SMBGCs. On average, each strain contains 12 gene clusters, and the most abundant ones (45.7%) are from the family of non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) and non-ribosomal peptide synthetase hybrid with polyketide synthase (NRPS/PKS), indicating a great potential to find bioactive compounds. The comparison of SMBGC between H. chejuensis and other species showed that H. chejuensis contained two times more gene clusters than H. ganghwensis. One strain, designed as NBU794, was isolated from the mangrove soil of Dongzhai Port in Haikou (China) by iChip. The 16S rRNA gene of NBU794 exhibited 99% identity to H. chejuensis KCTC 2396 and clustered with the H. chejuensis clade on the phylogenetic trees. Genome mining on strain NBU794 released 17 SMBGCs and two groups of bioactive compounds, which are chejuenolide A-C and nine prodiginines derivatives. The prodiginines derivatives include the well-known lead compound prodigiosin and two new compounds, 2-methyl-3-pentyl-4-O-methyl-prodiginine and 2-methyl-3-octyl-prodiginine, which were identified through fragmentation analysis based on LC-MS/MS. The anti-microbial activity assay showed prodigiosin and 2-methyl-3-heptyl-prodiginine exhibited the best performance in inhibiting Escherichia coli, Salmonella paratyphi B, MASA Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, and Candida albicans. Moreover, the yield of prodigiosin in H. chejuensis NBU794 was also evaluated, which could reach 1.40 g/L under the non-optimized condition and increase to 5.83 g/L in the modified ISP4 medium with macroporous adsorption beads added, indicating that NBU794 is a promising source of prodigiosin. |
