천연의 붉은 색소인 prodigiosin은 Serratia marcescens에 의해서 생산되며 이는 pyrrolylpyrromethane 골격으로 구성되어 있다. 이 색소는 그 분자가 가진 특성 때문에 넓은 범위에서 활용되고 있다. 또한 항암제, 면역억제제, 항진균제, 살조제 등 다양한 분야의 효과가 보고되소 있다. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)는 세계적으로 가장 주요한 원내 감염균으로써, 미국에서 해마다 HIV로 사망하는 수보다 더 많은 사망률을 보이고 있다. 그러므로 MRSA에 대한 새로운 치료제의 개발이 매우 중요하며 급박한 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 중증오염도를 가진 하천수로부터 Serratia sp.

Prodigiosin, a member of natural red pigment family, is produced by Serratia marcescens, and characterized by a common pyrrolylpyrromethane skeleton. This pigment has been reported with the effects of anticancer, immunosuppressant, antifungal, and algicidal activities. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a major cause of hospital infections. In this study, anti-MRSA properties of prodigiosin isolated from Serratia sp. PDGS 120915 were investigated. We identified and purified prodigiosin using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and evaluated anti-MRSA activity. Purified prodigiosin inhibited the growth of MRSA. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of prodigiosin were determined to $32{\mu}g/ml$ against the MRSA strains. Fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) indices of ampicillin and penicillin were indicated synergistic effects of prodigiosin on MRSA.

문제 정의
The purpose of this study is to identify and isolate bacteria which produce anti-MRSA substances, and to investigate the efficacy of novel compounds on the negative regulation of MRSA.
가설 설정
It is hypothesized that prodigiosin may synergize the activity of β-lactams, which inhibit cell wall synthesis.
제안 방법
A bacterial strain PDGS 120915, which exhibits an anti-MRSA activity, was isolated from stream water collected in Busan, Korea. In order to identify this strain, biochemical and genetical analysis were performed. Gram negative rod and the color of colony was red on LB agar plate.
Temperature, pH and NaCl concentration were examined to determine the optimum culture condition in LB medium. For the temperature, cells were aerobically incubated in LB broth medium at the following temperatures; 4, 15, 20, 25, 28, 30, 37 and 42℃.
However, a complete block in prodigiosin production was observed at 37℃, showing that the similar result from the previous study [17]. To investigate effects of NaCl concentration on bacterial growth and secondary metabolites biosynthesis, the growth rate and amount of pigment production were measured at the range of 0~10% NaCl concentration. Bacterial growth indicated 1.
