The discovery of new antibiotics reached its peak during the golden era of antibiotics in the mid 20th century and continued to thrive until the 1980s. However, after more than 50 years of fruitful exploration and exploitation of microbial natural products the discovery rate of new antibiotics has dropped drastically in recent decades. On the other hand, known compounds were re-discovered again and again, possibly from related producing organisms, making natural products discovery an expensive and time-consuming endeavor. Therefore, in recent years, efforts for discovering new natural products have been redirected towards organisms from unique and untapped areas of the globe with remarkable biodiversity potential and/or extreme environment, such as deep-sea vents, caves, and other unusual ecosystems. This dissertation describes our efforts to discover new bioactive natural products from microorganisms isolated from a unique black water ecosystem in Indonesia. Indonesia is recognized as a major center in the world for biodiversity and is one of the countries with the highest level of endemic species and microorganisms that live in its various ecosystems. Among them are the "black-water" rivers, which flow in the steamy jungles of islands along the Indonesian archipelago, providing unique environments for its flora and fauna. In collaboration with scientists at the Indonesian Center for Biodiversity and Biotechnology (ICBB), we investigated bioactive secondary metabolites of microorganisms from the soil samples of a black water ecosystem on Borneo Island, Indonesia. 16S rRNA sequence analysis was used for the identification of the bacteria, and from 141 bacterial strains investigated, 77% were Streptomyces, 6% were non-Streptomyces actinomycetes, and 17% were non-actinomycete strains. About one third of the strains were screened for their bioactive secondary metabolites production. The EtOAc and n-BuOH extracts of the culture broths of the bacteria were subjected to antibacterial and antifungal assays, as well as mass spectrometry analysis. More than half of the screened Streptomyces (18 out of 24) showed activities against one or more pathogenic microorganisms, whereas only 2 out of 14 of the non-actinomycete strains showed antibacterial activities. Furthermore, chemical screening of 9 non-Streptomyces actinomycetes revealed that 3 strains, all of which are Amycolatopsis spp., produce the anticancer agents the apoptolidins. Chemical investigation of the strain Streptomyces albiflaviniger ICBB 9297 delivered four new elaiophylin-like macrolides and five known elaiophylins. The new compounds have macrocyclic skeletons distinct from those of the known elaiophylins, in which one or both of the dimeric polyketide chains contain(s) an additional pendant methyl group. However, they showed comparable antibacterial activity to elaiophylin against Staphylococcus aureus. Interestingly, those with the additional pendant methyl group on only one of the polyketide chains showed significantly increased activity against Mycobacterium smegmatis, whereas the one with two additional methyl groups and the known elaiophylin analogues showed no activity. The production of the new analogues suggests that the last acyltrasferase (AT) domain of the elaiophylin polyketide synthases has relaxed substrate specificity. Bioinfomatic analysis of the conserved active site residues within the AT domains revealed an unusual amino acid sequence of the active site motif in the AT7 domain. Investigations of the apoptolidin producer Amycolatopsis sp. ICBB 8242 led to the discovery of two succinylated apoptolidin analogues and linear apoptolidin A. The two succinylated compounds can inhibit the proliferation and viability of human H292 and HeLa cells. However, in contrast to apoptolidin A, they do not inhibit cellular respiration in H292 cells. This seemingly contradictory results may be due to an alternative biological mechanism of action or due to degradation of succinyl-apoptolidin A to apoptolidin A in the cell viability assay. This hydrolysis may not occur during the real time analysis of cellular respiration, which was performed in a relatively short experimental time. The production of succinylated apoptolidins by Amycolatopsis sp. ICBB 8242 suggests that succinylation may play a role in self-resistance and/or as an export mechanism.

The 1st Euchem Symposium on the Chemical Synthesis of Antibiotics was held in Aussois in Savoie, France on May 2-6, 1988 thanks to the efforts of Prof. G. Lukacs, chairperson, and Prof. F. Arcamone and Prof. P. Welzel, vice-chairpersons of the International Organizing Committee. Following the great success of the Ist Symposium, the 2nd Symposium, which was chaired by Prof. Ohno, was held in Oiso, Japan in 1990. The 3rd Symposium, chaired by Prof. K. Krohn, was held in Kloster Banz, Germany in 1992. It has been decided that the 4th Symposium will take place in the United States in 1994 and be chaired by Dr. H. A. Kirst of Lilly Research Laboratories. The Euchem Symposium has come to serve as an important symposium where one can understand the development and the future directions of the chemical synthesis of antibiotics and other bioactive metabolites from microorganisms. Prof. G. Lukacs, in cooperation with Prof. M. Ohno, edited the book "Recent Progress in the Chemical Synthesis of Antibiotics" three years ago. Most of its contributors were the participants of the Aussois Symposium. This book attracted the attention of researchers specializing in organic synthesis and stimulated considerable progress in this field.

White biotechnology is industrial biotechnology dealing with various biotech products through applications of microbes. The main application of white biotechnology is commercial production of various useful organic substances, such as acetic acid, citric acid, acetone, glycerine, etc., and antibiotics like penicillin, streptomycin, mitomycin, etc., and value added product through the use of microorganisms especially fungi and bacteria. The value-added products included bioactive compounds, secondary metabolites, pigments and industrially important enzymes for potential applications in agriculture, pharmaceuticals, medicine and allied sectors for human welfare. In the 21st century, techniques were developed to harness fungi to protect human health (through antibiotics, antimicrobial, immunosuppressive agents, value-added products etc.), which led to industrial scale production of enzymes, alkaloids, detergents, acids, biosurfactants. The first large-scale industrial applications of modern biotechnology have been made in the areas of food and animal feed production (agricultural/green biotechnology) and pharmaceuticals (medical/red biotechnology). In contrast, the production of bio-active compounds through fermentation or enzymatic conversion is known industrial or white biotechnology. The beneficial fungal strains may play important role in agriculture, industry and the medical sectors. The beneficial fungi play a significance role in plant growth promotion, and soil fertility using both, direct (solubilization of phosphorus, potassium and zinc; production of indole acetic acid, gibberellic acid, cytokinin and siderophores) and indirect (production of hydrolytic enzymes, siderophores, ammonia, hydrogen cyanides and antibiotics) mechanisms of plant growth promotion for sustainable agriculture. The fungal strains and their products (enzymes, bio-active compounds and secondary metabolites) are very useful for industry. The discovery of antibiotics is a milestone in the development of white biotechnology. Since then, white biotechnology has steadily developed and now plays a key role in several industrial sectors, providing both high valued nutraceuticals and pharmaceutical products. The fungal strains and bio-active compounds also play important role in the environmental cleaning. This volume covers the latest research developments related to value-added products in white biotechnology through fungi.
