Description of DIMBOA

DIMBOA (2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one) is a benzoxazinoid (BX), is a secondary metabolite in grasses [1]. DIMBOA act as antibiotic and allelochemical, part of the chemical defense system of graminaceous plants such as maize, wheat, and rye [1,2]. DIMBOA possess growth inhibitory properties against many strains of studied bacteria and fungi, such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli as well as against Saccharomyces cerevisiae [2]. Once released, BXs degrade relatively quickly in aqueous environments with a half-life of less than 24 hours [1].

DIMBOA is weak bacterial mutagens and furthermore caused aneuploidy in human-derived liver cells (HepG2 cells) [3]. DIMBOA showed genotoxic effects in HepG2 cell line [4].

DIMBOA showed the antibacterial activity against Ralstonia solanacearum with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 50, 100 and 200 mg/L. DIMBOA also significantly affect bacterial growth, reduce biofilm formation, and inhibit swarming motility within 24 h [5].

Protocol of DIMBOA

Cell experiment [1]:

Cell lines

Pseudomonas putida KT2440

Preparation Method

P. putida KT2440 cells were grown to mid-exponential phase in 100 mL M9 medium before DIMBOA was added to a final concentration of 5 µg mL-1. After 1 hour of exposure, cells were harvested by centrifugation at 4°C.

Reaction Conditions

5 µg mL-1, 1h

Applications

P. putida KT2440 appears relatively tolerant to DIMBOA in comparison to other soil bacteria. For all subsequent experiments, DIMBOA was employed at concentrations of 5 µg mL-1 (0.023 mM).
