This study reports a novel class of antifungal protein derived from bacterial origin. Bacillus thuringiensis SF361, the strain also responsible for producing the novel bacteriocin thurincin H, exhibits broad antifungal activity against select members of several fungal genera, including Aspergillus, Byssochlamys, and Penicillium, as well as the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans. Optimal antifungal production and secretion were observed after-log phase growth when incubated at 37°C in a carbohydrate-free growth medium. High-performance liquid chromatography purification was performed after pH-selective ammonium sulfate precipitation and size-exclusion chromatography. Intact mass analysis and peptide mass fingerprinting identified the 13,484-Da protein to be a mass homolog to the YvgO protein construct sequenced from Bacillus cereus AH 1134. Further analysis via amino-terminal sequencing also revealed the existence of four distinct yet equally efficacious YvgO variants differing only within the first four N-terminal residues. YvgO was found to be remarkably stable, maintaining its antifungal activity under a wide pH and temperature range. When assayed against the toxigenic species Byssochlamys fulva H25, the selected primary filamentous fungal indicator, the MIC was estimated to be 1.5 ppm. Candida albicans 3153 was more resistant, exhibiting MICs between 25 and 800 ppm, depending on growth conditions. YvgO is unique among antifungals, showing no known sequential or functional homology to the typical classes of antifungal proteins, including common membrane-acting agents such as cellulases and glucanases. Due to its activity against an array of pathogenic and spoilage fungi, the potentials for clinical, agricultural, and food-processing applications are encouraging.
