"Rare-actinomycetes tersebar di berbagai habitat terutama di habitat ekstrem seperti kawasan geotermal. Penelitian mengenai rare-actinomycetes dilakukan terkait potensinya sebagai penghasil senyawa bioaktif baru yang bermanfaat dalam bidang kesehatan, industri dan farmasi. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengisolasi dan mengkarakterisasi secara fenotip dan genotip rare-actinomycetes dari sampel tanah di bawah batuan kuarsa (S3.5.3) di hutan kawasan geotermal Cisolok. Metode pengayaan sampel tanah dilakukan menggunakan medium 10% R2A (Reasoner’s 2A) cair dengan penambahan cycloheximide 100 ppm dan sodium azide 60 ppm, kemudian diinkubasi pada suhu 30°C selama 30 hari. Isolasi rare actinomycetes dilakukan dengan metode membran filter dan spread pada medium 10% R2A gellan gum yang diinkubasi pada suhu 45°C. Karakterisasi dilakukan secara genotipik (berdasarkan data sequence gen 16S rRNA, analisis homologi sequence, dan rekonstruksi pohon filogenetik dengan metode Neighbour-Joining, Maximum Likelihood, dan Minimum Evolution); dan karakterisasi fenotipik (morfologi, fisiologi, dan biokimia). Sebanyak 26 isolat diperoleh dari sampel S3.5.3. Lima isolat dengan karakter morfologi actinomycetes yang diisolasi dari suhu 45°C dengan membran filter, dipilih untuk diidentifikasi. Hasil analisis sequence gen 16S rRNA dari lima isolat menunjukkan persentase homologi sebesar 95,46-99,56% terhadap Micromonospora yasonensis DS3186T. Berdasarkan hasil analisis filogenetik dengan metode Neighbour-Joining, kelima isolat memiliki hubungan kekerabatan terdekat dengan Micromonospora yasonensis DS3186T. Kelima isolat merupakan anggota class Actinomycetes, ordo Micromonosporales, family Micromonosporaceae. Karakter fenotipik kelima isolat sesuai dengan Micromonospora yasonensis sebagai spesies terdekatnya. Kelima isolat merupakan bakteri termotoleran (tumbuh pada suhu 30-45°C dan suhu optimum 40°C), aerobik, Gram positif, menghasilkan miselium substrat tanpa adanya miselium aerial, positif katalase, dan menghasilkan soluble pigment. Penelitian ini mengungkapkan bahwa Micromonospora yasonensis dapat ditemukan di kawasan geotermal dan berasosiasi dengan batuan kuarsa.

Rare-actinomycetes are distributed in various habitats, particularly in extreme environments such as geothermal areas. Research on rare-actinomycetes focuses on their potential as producers of new bioactive compounds beneficial in health, industrial, and pharmaceutical fields. The aims of this study were to isolate and characterize rare-actinomycetes from soil samples beneath quartz rocks (S3.5.3) in the geothermal forest of Cisolok. Soil sample enrichment was performed using 10% R2A (Reasoner’s 2A) liquid medium supplemented with 100 ppm cycloheximide and 60 ppm sodium azide, incubated at 30°C for 30 days. Rare actinomycetes isolation was carried out using the membrane filter method and spread on 10% R2A agar with gellan gum, incubated at 45°C. Characterization included genotypic analysis based on the sequence of 16S rRNA gene, supported by phenotypic characterization (morphology, physiology, and biochemistry). A total of 26 isolates were obtained from sample S3.5.3. Five isolates with actinomycetes morphology isolated at 45°C using the membrane filter method were selected for characterization. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences from these five isolates showed homology levels of 95.46-99.56% to Micromonospora yasonensis DS3186T. Based on phylogenetic analysis using the Neighbour-Joining method, the five isolates were most closely related to Micromonospora yasonensis DS3186T. These isolates belong to the class Actinomycetes, order Micromonosporales, and family Micromonosporaceae. Phenotypic characteristics of the five isolates were consistent with Micromonospora yasonensis as their closest species. These isolates are thermotolerant bacteria (growing at temperatures of 30-45°C; optimum temperature 40°C), aerobic, Gram-positive, produce substrate mycelium without aerial mycelium, positive for catalase, and produce soluble pigment. This study reveals that Micromonospora yasonensis can be found in geothermal areas associated with quartz rocks."

The aims of this study were to obtained thermophilic 'Actinobacteria' isolates from soil around Cisolok geyser, West Java with the ability to degrade cellulose at high temperatures and to analyze the phylogenetic position based on 16S rRNA gene of the selected isolates compared to closely related species. Cellulose degradation screening was performed on Minimal (Mm) medium with the addition of 1% (w/v) carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) or 1% (w/v) microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as substrate then incubated for 7 days. Cellulose degradations were observed by staining the plates with  0,2% (w/v) Congo red and clear zone formation around the bacterial colony would indicate the cellulose degradation. The results showed that 15 isolates were able to degrade 1% CMC and 12 isolates were able to degrade 1% MCC at 45 ^oC, 14 isolates were able to degrade 1% CMC and 1% MCC at 50 ^oC, 4 isolates were able to degrade 1% CMC and 1% MCC at 55 ^oC, and 3 isolates were able to degrade 1% CMC and 1% MCC at 60 ^oC. Three isolates (SL1-2-R-2, SL1-2-R-3, and SL1-2-R-4) were selected due to their CMC and MCC degrading ability at 60 ^oC. Molecular identification based on 16S rRNA gene and characterization in previous study showed that the three selected isolates are closely related to 'Actinomadura keratinilytica' WCC-2665^T(=NBRC 105837^T). The assay showed that type strain NBRC 105837^T was able to degrade 1% CMC and 1% MCC at 45, 50, 55, and 60 ^oC after 7 days of incubation. Cellulolytic activity show that the crude enzymes of the three selected isolates and type strain were able to degrade 1% CMC and 1% MCC at 45, 50, 55, and 60 ^oC. Phylogenetic analysis using Neighbour-Joining (NJ), Minimum Evolution (ME), and Maximum Likelihood (ML) methods showed that the  three selected isolates  were  clustered  together in monophyletic clade with 'Actinomadura keratinilytica' WCC-2265^T with 100% bootstrap value. Phylogenetic analysis also showed that cellulase  producers  and  non-cellulase  producers  in 'Thermomonosporaceae' were grouped into different clades."

The aims of this study were to obtain the potential xylan-degrading thermophilic Actinobacteria isolates from soil of Cisolok geysers and to understand their relationship with the closely related taxa of xylanase-producing Actinobacteria. Seventeen thermophilic Actinobacteria isolates were isolated from soil collected around Cisolok geysers, West Java. Xylan-degrading ability of 17 Actinobacteria isolates and type strain Actinomadura keratinilytica NBRC 105837T were screened by using Minimal (Mm) agar medium with the addition of 0.5 xylan substrate, incubated for 7 days. Clear zone was formed around the colony of Actinobacteria isolates which showed xylan-degrading ability at 45 C (15 isolates), 50 C (14 isolates), 55 C (4 isolates), and 60 C (3 isolates) after staining by 0.2 (w/v) Congo red. Type strain NBRC 105837T was able to degrade 0,5 xylan at 45 to 60 C. Three isolates (SL1-2-R-2, SL1-2-R-3, dan SL1-2-R-4) that showed xylan-degrading ability at 45 to 60 C were choosen as potential isolates. Three potential isolates and type strain NBRC 105837T were able to degrade 0,1 Remazol Brilliant Blue R-xylan (RBB-xylan) substrate on Mm agar after 3 days incubation at 45 to 60 C. In the previous study, these potential isolates were identified as Actinomadura keratinilytica based on genotypic and phenotypic characters. Crude enzyme of 3 potential isolates and type strain NBRC 105837T were able to degrade both 0.5 xylan and 0.1 RBB-xylan on Mm agar after 24 hours at 45 to 60 C. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene using neighbor-joining, minimum evolution, and maximum likelihood methods showed the 3 potential isolates formed monophyletic clade with two thermophilic xylan-degrading Actinobacteria species (A. keratinilytica and A. miaoliensis). Three potential isolates formed monophyletic clade with four thermophilic Actinobacteria species (A. keratinilytica, A. miaoliensis, A. rubrobrunea, and A. viridilutea). These isolates produced non-fragmented branched substrate mycelia and spores produced from aerial mycelia after 14 days incubation at 45 C. This study reports a new information regarding the xylan-degrading ability of A. keratinilytica NBRC 105837."

"Tujuan penelitian adalah mengetahui aktivitas amilolitik 17 isolat 'Actinobacteria' termofilik pada suhu tinggi, dan memperoleh informasi spesies, dan posisi filogenetik isolat potensial berdasarkan data sekuens gen 16S rRNA, analisis filogenetik, karakterisasi morfologi, fisiologi, dan biokimia. Kemampuan tumbuh 17 isolat 'Actinobacteria' termofilik pada berbagai variasi suhu diuji menggunakan medium ISP 1 agar, dan diinkubasi pada suhu 45, 50, 55, 60 ^oC selama 7 hari. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, 17 isolat memiliki pertumbuhan yang bervariasi pada suhu 45--60 ^oC. Tujuh belas isolat tumbuh pada suhu inkubasi 45 ^oC, 16 isolat pada suhu 50 ^oC, enam isolat pada suhu 55 ^oC, dan lima isolat pada suhu 60 ^oC terdiri atas SL1-2-R-2, SL1-2-R-3, SL1-2-R-4, SL2-2-R-15, dan SL3-1-R-16. Aktivitas amilolitik 17 isolat 'Actinobacteria' termofilik pada berbagai variasi suhu diuji dengan metode 'starch agar plate', menggunakan medium Minimal (Mm) agar dengan penambahan pati ('soluble starch') sebagai substrat sebanyak 1% (b/v), dan diinkubasi pada suhu 45, 50, 55, dan 60 ^oC selama 7 hari. Aktivitas amilolitik yang positif ditandai dengan terbentuknya zona bening di sekitar koloni bakteri setelah diteteskan larutan 'Lugol's iodine' sebanyak 1,5 ml. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar isolat yang diperoleh dari tanah di dekat geiser Cisolok memiliki aktivitas amilolitik yang bervariasi pada suhu 45--60 ^oC. Lima belas isolat memiliki aktivitas amilolitik pada suhu 45 ^oC, 13 isolat pada suhu 50 ^oC, empat isolat pada suhu 55 ^oC, dan hanya tiga isolat pada suhu 60 ^oC. Namun demikian, dua isolat (SL2-2-R-15 dan SL3-1-R-16) tidak memiliki aktivitas amilolitik pada suhu 45, 50, dan 55 ^oC setelah diinkubasi selama 7 hari. Tiga isolat potensial yang memiliki aktivitas amilolitik pada suhu 60 ^oC (SL1-2-R-2, SL1-2-R-3, dan SL1-2-R-4), berdasarkan data sekuens gen 16S rRNA, analisis filogenetik, dan karakterisasi fenotipik tiga isolat potensial tersebut diidentifikasi sebagai 'Actinomadura keratinilytica'.

The aims of this study were to screen for amylolytic activity of the 17 themorphilic 'Actinobacteria' at high temperature, and to obtain species information and phylogenetic position based on 16S rRNA gene sequence, phylogenetic analysis, morphological, physiological, and biochemical characterizations. The ability to grow at various temperature was carried out on ISP 1 agar medium, incubated at 45, 50, 55, 60 ^oC for 7 days. The results showed that the 17 isolates 'Actinobacteria' have varying growth at a temperature of 45--60 ^oC. Seventeen, 16, and six isolates grew at 45, 50, and 55 ^oC, respectively, and only five isolates grew at 60 ^oC, designated SL1-2-R-2, SL1-2-R-3, SL1-2-R-4, SL2-2-R-15, and SL3-1-R-16. Amylolytic activity of the 17 themorphilic 'Actinobacteria' at various temperature was carried out using the starch agar plate method on Minimal (Mm) agar medium with the addition of 1% (w/v) soluble starch as substrate, and incubated at 45, 50, 55, and 60 ^oC for up to 7 days. Amylolytic activity was detected by flooding the plates with 1.5 ml of Lugol's iodine solution. Clear zones around the colonies indicated positive results for amylolytic activity. The results showed that most of the isolates obtained from the soil near the Cisolok geyser have varying amylolytic activity at a temperature of 45--60° C. In this study, 15, 13, four, and three out of 17 isolates were positive for amylolytic activity at 45, 50, 55, and 60 ^oC, respectively. Meanwhile, two isolates, designated SL2-2-R-15 and SL3-1-R-16, showed negative results for amylolytic activity at 45, 50, and 55 ^oC, even after 7 days of incubation. Three potential isolates which have amylolytic activity at 60 ^oC (designated SL1-2-R-2, SL1-2-R-3, and SL1-2-R-4), based on 16S rRNA gene sequence, phylogenetic analysis, and phenotypic characterizations were identified as 'Actinomadura keratinilytica.'"

"The aims of this study are to provide data regarding the taxonomic study of thermophilic Actinobacteria based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, description, and assessment for secondary metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) in the genome of novel taxa, and its antibacterial activity. Thirty-one isolates of thermophilic Actinobacteria were isolated from soil samples in Cisolok geothermal area, West Java. The 16S rRNA gene sequence-similarity search against all related species was performed using EzTaxon-e database. The sequences of 31 isolates showed similarity to member of family Micromonosporaceae, Nocardiaceae, Pseudonocardiaceae, Streptomycetaceae, Streptosporangiaceae, and Thermomonosporaceae. Six isolates displayed high similarity to genera in the family Pseudonocardiaceae, and most closely related to the genus Thermotunica, T. guangxiensis AG2-7T with similarity values from 94.6 to 95.2%. Phenotypic features and phylogenetic data differentiated strain SL3-2-4T from members of the family Pseudonocardiaceae. Therefore, the strain SL3-2-4T is proposed as a representative of a novel species in a novel genus, Gandjariella thermophila gen. nov., sp. nov. The genome of SL3-2-4T contained 21 antiSMASH-identified secondary metabolite regions harboring BGCs. These BGCs were for polyketide synthase, non-ribosomal peptide synthase, and ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide family clusters. Thirteen and five regions displayed low (4–35%) and no similarity with known BGCs for secondary metabolites, respectively. Screening for antibacterial activity showed that strains SL3-2-4T and SL3-2-7 on MM 2 medium solidified with gellan gum at 45°C for 14 days demonstrated inhibitory activity against all Gram-positive, but not Gram-negative bacteria. Strain SL3-2-10 on ISP 3 gellan gum medium incubated for seven-days only active against K. rhizophila NBRC 12078. The results indicated that novel taxa have the potential for the discovery of active secondary metabolites."

Background: Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA (MPS IVA, Morquio A syndrome) is an autosomal recessive disease which is caused by defect in the N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase gene (GALNS, galactosamine (N-acetyl)-6-sulfate sulfatase; MIM #612222). After urine glycosaminoglycan is performed as a screening tool, diagnosis is confitmed through measuring GALNS enzyme activity in leucocyte or fibroblast. Molecular testing is needed because clinical symptoms are variable. Mutation in GALNS gene are many and can be different in each ethnicity and country. This heterogeneity poses a challenge to the diagnosis of MPS IVA especially in Indonesia. Therefore, data on clinical spectrum and genetic mutation of MPS IVA in Indonesian population is needed. Aim: To determine the phenotype-genotype correlation of MPS IVA in Indonesia Method: Subjects were recruited from Department of Pediatrics, Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, while molecular testing was performed in the Human Genetic Cluster (HGRC) IMERI Faculty of Medicine Universitas Indonesia between Januari 1st until December 13th, 2019. Data on phenotype was evaluated from medical records. A 5 ml EDTA whole blood was then collected from the subjects. Molecular testing consists of DNA isolation, primer design, PCR, sequencing, and variant analysis. Novel variants are then classified according to guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). Results: A total of 7 subjects from 5 different cities was included in this study, consisting of 2 boys and 5 girls. Age at recruitments was between 2 to 17 years-old. Two subjects had history of MPS IVA in older sibling. Age of onset were between 2-3 years-old. No history of consanguinity in the subjects parents. All subjects were classified as severe type. Clinical manifestations found in all patients were short neck, genu valgum, pectus carinatum, loose joint, and difficulty walking. Three out of 7 subjects were still able to walk. Data on enzyme activity and glycosaminoglycans could not be compared because they were performed with different methods. Twenty four variants were found in 7 subjects. Mostly located on exon 7 (29.2%), followed by exon 5, 10, dan 12 (each 16.7%), exon 13 (12.5%), and the rest were found in exon 1, 11, and 14. Missense variants are the most commonly found (54.2%), followed by silent variants (45.8%), and 1 nonsense variant (4,2%). The most common variants found was c.708C>T in 5 subjects, followed by c.510T>C and c.1354 T>C, each on 3 subjects. These variants are classified as benign variants (50%), VUS (1.7%), and pathogenic variants (33.3%). Three novel variants were found in this study, including one likely pathogenic variants, c.1348 G>A. Conclusion: Eight pathogenic variant were found including one novel likely pathogenic variant. Nine out of 14 alleles (64.3%) were found. The most sever phenotype was found in subject 4 who had nonsense homozygous pathogenic variant c.751 C>T."

"Actinomycetes yang diisolasi dari habitat laut diketahui memiliki potensi sebagai penghasil enzim baru yang bermanfaat bagi industri. Kelimpahan keanekaragaman kelompok bakteri ini di Indonesia serta kurangnya penelitian mendorong kebutuhan akan informasi lebih mendalam. Isolat Actinomycetes (BLH 5-14) dari sedimen laut Sarena Kecil, kota Bitung, Sulawesi Utara, menunjukkan potensi sebagai penghasil enzim pektinase dan xilanase. Kedua enzim ini dibutuhkan dalam pengolahan jus buah, kertas, serat rami, dan produksi oligosakarida. Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengkarakterisasi enzim pektinase dan xilanase oleh isolat BLH 5-14 menggunakan substrat komersial. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa enzim pektinase memiliki aktivitas tertinggi pada hari produksi ke-6 sebesar 4,72±0,08 U/mL dengan pH optimum 8,0 dan suhu optimum 50℃, sedangkan enzim xilanase memiliki aktivitas tertinggi pada hari produksi ke-6 sebesar 7,63±0,03 U/mL dengan pH optimum 6,0 dan suhu optimum 60℃. Inhibitor terbesar bagi kedua enzim merupakan Hg2+ dan SDS, sedangkan ion Fe2+ dapat meningkatkan aktivitas hingga dua kali lipat. Melalui tahapan hidrolisis dan TLC, diketahui pula bahwa enzim pektinase dan xilanase mampu menghasilkan monosakarida seperti galacturonic acid (P1), dan oligosakarida seperti xylotriose (X3), xylotetraose (X4), dan xylopentaose (X5), yang dengan pengembangan lebih lanjut dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan prebiotik bagi industri kesehatan. Berdasarkan hasil sekuens 16S rDNA, isolat Actinomycetes (BLH 5-14) diidentifikasi sebagai genus Streptomyces dengan kemiripan terdekat Streptomyces tendae (99,78%).

Actinomycetes isolated from marine habitats are known to have the potential for novel enzymes that are beneficial for the industry. The high diversity of the bacterial group in Indonesia and the lack of research that exist have prompted the need for more in-depth information. Actinomycetes isolates (BLH 5-14) that were obtained from marine sediments of Sarena Kecil, Bitung, North Sulawesi, showed potential to produce pectinase and xylanase needed in the processing of fruit juice industry, paper, ramie, and the production of oligosaccharides. This study aimed to characterize the pectinase and xylanase enzymes produced by BLH 5-14 isolates using commercial substrates. The results revealed that the pectinase had the highest activity on the 6th day (4.72±0.08 U/mL) at the optimum pH of 8.0 and optimum temperature of 50℃, while the xylanase had the highest activity on the 6th day (7.63±0.03 U/mL) at optimum pH 6.0 and optimum temperature 60℃. The most significant inhibitors for both enzymes are Hg2+ and SDS, while Fe2+ can increase enzyme activity up to two times the original value. Hydrolysis and thin layer chromatography also showed that pectinase and xylanase were able to produce oligosaccharides such as galacturonic acid (P1), xylotriose (X3), xylotetraose (X4), and xylopentaose (X5), which with further development can be used as prebiotics for the healthcare industry. Based on the results of 16S rDNA sequences, BLH 5-14 were identified as genus Streptomyces, with closely related species Streptomyces tendae (99,78%)."
