Abstract

Endophytic Bacillus sp. CY22 was previously isolated from the interior of balloon flower root and showed strong antifungal activity against phytopathogenic fungi such as Rhizoctonia solnni, Fusarium oxysporum, and Phythium ultimum. Many Bacillus strains produce antifungal compound such as iturin, fengycin, and mycosubtilin. We isolated and identified antifungal compound from cell supernatant of the endophytic strain. By the MALDI-TOF mass result, the antifungal compound was similar to the known antifungal lipopeptide iturin. It was found that the purified iturin had three isoforms with protonated masses of m/z 1,043.39, 1,057.42, and 1,071.42 and different structures in combination with $Na^{+}$ ion using MALDI-TOF MS. The ita22 gene, which transacylase gene is associated with production of antifungal iturin, had an open reading frame (ORF) of 1,200 bp encoding 400 amino acids. Results of deduced amino acids sequence homology search, Ita22 was homologous with FenF (BAB69697) of Bacillus subtilis 168.

식물 내생균 Bacillus sp. CY22는 식물병원균 Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium oxysporum 및 Phythium ultimum에 대해 강한 항균력을 나타내었다. 일반적으로 많은 Bacillus속 균주들은 iturin, fengycin, mycosubtulin과 같은 항균 물질을 분비한다. 본 연구에서는 식물내생균 Bacillus sp. CY22의 배양액으로부터 항균물질을 분리, 정제하였으며 MALDI-TOF mass로 분자량을 확인하였다. MALDI-TOF mass spectrum분석 결과 분리된 항균물질은 Bacillus 속 균주가 생성하는 항균물질로서 잘 알려져 있는 iturin의 분자량과 거의 일치하였으며, m/z 1043.4, 1057.4, 1071.4에서 molecular ion peak를 나타내었다. 이들은 각각 m/z 14차이를 가진 iturin의 isoform으로 추정되며 이 것은 iturin을 구성하고 있는 지방산의 탄소수 차이로 생각되며 m/z 1065.4, 1079.4 peak는 sodium adduct로서 추정된다. 또한 항균물질 iturin을 생성하는데 관여하는 transacylase 유전자를 크로닝하여 ita22 유전자로 명명하고, 그 특성으로 ita22 유전자는 400 개의 아미노산을 인지하는 1,200 bp의 open reading frame (ORF)을 가지며, 아미노산의 상동성을 조사한 결과 Bacillus subtilis 168의 FenF (BAB69697)와 가장 유사하였다.
