Sumario:Actinobacteria isolated from untapped environments and exposed to extreme conditions such as saltpans are a promising source of novel bioactive compounds. These microorganisms can provide new molecules through either the biosynthetic pathway or the biotransformation of organic molecules. In the present study, we performed a chemical metabolic screening of secondary metabolites secreted by the new strain CG3, which was isolated from a saltpan located in the Sahara of Algeria, via high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-HRMS). The results indicated that this strain produced five new polyene macrolactams, kenalactams A–E, along with two known compounds, mitomycin C and 6″-hydroxy-4,2′,3′,4″ tetramethoxy-p-terphenyl. Furthermore, the CG3 isolate could have excellent properties for converting the aglycone isoflavone glycitein to the compounds 6,7-dimethoxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)chromen-4-one (50) and 6,7-dimethoxy-3-phenylchromen-4-one (54), and the isoflavone genistein can be converted to 5,7-dimethoxy-3-(4-methoxyphenyl)chromen-4-one (52). Docking studies and molecular dynamics simulations indicated that these three isoflavones, generated via biotransformation, are potent inhibitors of the target protein aromatase (CYP19A1); consequently, they can be used to prevent breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women.
