产品描述

Bikaverin is a fungal metabolite originally isolated from F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici that has diverse biological activities, including antiprotozoal, nematocidal, antiproliferative, and fungicidal properties.1,2,3,4 It is active against L. braziliensis when used at a concentration of 0.15 μg/ml and against B. xylophilus at a concentration of 100 μg/ml.2 It inhibits proliferation of NCI-H460, MIA PaCa-2, MCF-7, and SF-268 cells (IC50s = 0.43, 0.26, 0.42, and 0.38 μM, respectively).3 Bikaverin inhibits the growth of certain plant pathogenic fungi, including R. solani, P. capsici, P. infestans, and M. grisea (IC50s = <1.2, 10, 60, and 70 μg/ml, respectively).4 It inhibits the development and provides disease control of tomato late blight and wheat leaf rust caused by P. infestans and P. recondita, respectively, when applied at a concentration of 300 μg/ml.

Natural blue pigments and Bikaverin

Microbiol Res 2021 Mar;244:126653.PMID:33302226DOI:10.1016/j.micres.2020.126653.

In last years, the main studied microbial sources of natural blue pigments have been the eukaryotic algae, Rhodophytes and Cryptophytes, and the cyanobacterium Arthrospira (Spirulina) platensis, responsible for the production of phycocyanin, one of the most important blue compounds approved for food and cosmetic use. Recent research also includes the indigoidine pigment from the bacteria Erwinia, Streptomyces and Photorhabdus. Despite these advances, there are still few options of microbial blue pigments reported so far, but the interest in these products is high due to the lack of stable natural blue pigments in nature. Filamentous fungi are particularly attractive for their ability to produce pigments with a wide range of colors. Bikaverin is a red metabolite present mainly in species of the genus Fusarium. Although originally red, the biomass containing Bikaverin changes its color to blue after heat treatment, through a mechanism still unknown. In addition to the special behavior of color change by thermal treatment, Bikaverin has beneficial biological properties, such as antimicrobial and antiproliferative activities, which can expand its use for the pharmaceutical and medical sectors. The present review addresses the production natural blue pigments and focuses on the properties of Bikaverin, which can be an important source of blue pigment with potential applications in the food industry and in other industrial sectors.

Bikaverin production and applications

Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2010 Jun;87(1):21-9.PMID:20376635DOI:10.1007/s00253-010-2551-1.

Bikaverin is a reddish pigment produced by different fungal species, most of them from the genus Fusarium, with antibiotic properties against certain protozoa and fungi. Chemically, Bikaverin is a polyketide with a tetracyclic benzoxanthone structure, resulting from the activity of a specific class I multifunctional polyketide synthase and subsequent group modifications introduced by a monooxygenase and an O-methyltransferase. In some fungi, Bikaverin is found with smaller amounts of a precursor molecule, called norbikaverin. Production of these metabolites by different fungal species depends on culture conditions, but it is mainly affected by nitrogen availability and pH. Regulation of the pathway has been investigated in special detail in the gibberellin-producing fungus Fusarium fujikuroi, whose genes and enzymes responsible for Bikaverin production have been recently characterized. In this fungus, the synthesis is induced by nitrogen starvation and acidic pH, and it is favored by other factors, such as aeration, sulfate and phosphate starvation, or sucrose availability. Some of these inducing agents increase mRNA levels of the enzymatic genes, organized in a coregulated cluster. The biological properties of Bikaverin include antitumoral activity against different cancer cell lines. The diverse biological activities and the increasing information on the biochemical and genetic basis of its production make Bikaverin a metabolite of increasing biotechnological interest.

Recovery and purification of Bikaverin produced by Fusarium oxysporum CCT7620

Food Chem X 2021 Oct 3;12:100136.PMID:34661094DOI:10.1016/j.fochx.2021.100136.

Microbial pigments have a distinguished potential for applications in food and pharmaceutical industries, stimulating the research in this field. The present study evaluated the ideal conditions for extracting Bikaverin (red pigment) from the biomass of Fusarium oxysporum CCT7620. Among the solvents tested, ethyl acetate extraction resulted in the highest Bikaverin concentration and the kinetic study revealed a saturation in Bikaverin concentration from 256 min on. Based on a preliminary economic study, three sequential extractions with ethyl acetate was considered the ideal protocol to recover Bikaverin. After extraction, chromatographic methods were tested to purify Bikaverin. The use of silica gel or Sephadex (open column) could not successfully purify Bikaverin, but the semi-preparative HPLC resulted in a bikaverin-enriched fraction with a purity degree equivalent to the commercial analytical standard. This work provides relevant information regarding the extraction and purification of Bikaverin, which may be useful for other downstraming processes.

Exploring Bikaverin as Metal Ion Biosensor: A Computational Approach

Acta Chim Slov 2019 Jun;66(2):351-359.PMID:33855498doi

A computational exploration of fungi produced pigment Bikaverin as a biosensor towards bioavailable metal ions is presented. Systematic studies of the optimized ground and excited state geometries were attempted for exploring metal ion binding pocket, comparative binding propensity and optical properties of the Bikaverin and its adducts with studied metal ions. The screening of thirteen (13) bioavailable metal ions, revealed a range of binding strength towards Bikaverin receptor with Ca2+, Mg2+ and Al3+as the strongest binders. Besides, upon binding to Bikaverin receptor an enhancement in its fluorescence intensity was observed in the order Ca2+> Al3+> Mg2+. The computationally predicted selectivity of Bikaverin receptor towards Ca2+was experimentally corroborated through the preliminary fluorescence studies. The Bikaverin probe showed an enhancement of fluorescence emission in presence of Ca2+ ions in buffered aqueous medium.

Production of Bikaverin by a Fusarium fujikuroi mutant in submerged cultures

AMB Express 2016 Dec;6(1):34.PMID:27142994DOI:10.1186/s13568-016-0205-0.

A variety of mutants having different colony characteristics, morphology and soluble pigmentation were generated from Fusarium fujikuroi by exposure to UV radiation. Mutants were selected that formed dry, compact, small colonies with reddish-violet pigment on regeneration agar plates. The production of Bikaverin by Mut-4 was examined in shake flasks in media with different nitrogen and carbon sources. The optimal C: N ratio for the maximal Bikaverin production by Mut-4 was 150:1. It produced still higher Bikaverin (6.3 g l(-1)) in a medium containing defatted cottonseed meal as nitrogen source, in combination with glucose. Bikaverin produced was extracted, purified and characterized by UV-visible and NMR spectroscopy. Bikaverin production in the present investigation was substantially higher than that reported by earlier investigators in submerged and solid-state fermentations.
