Insights into the Psychrophilic and Sea Ice-Specific Lifestyle of Marinobacter sp. Strain AC-23: a Genomic Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Marinobacter sp. strain AC-23 was isolated from Kongsfjorden in the Arctic. Here, we report the first draft genome sequence of a putative novel species of the genus Marinobacter comprising 4,149,715 bp, with a mean G+C content of 54.4%. The draft genome sequence will aid in understanding the psychrophilic and sea ice-specific lifestyle.

Diversity and association of psychrophilic bacteria in Antarctic sea ice.
The bacterial populations associated with sea ice sampled from Antarctic coastal areas were investigated by use of a phenotypic approach and a phylogenetic approach based on genes encoding 16S rRNA (16S rDNA). The diversity of bacteria associated with sea ice was also compared with the bacterial diversity of seawater underlying sea ice. Psychrophilic (optimal growth temperature, < or = 15 degre...
متن کاملExtensive Gene Acquisition in the Extremely Psychrophilic Bacterial Species Psychroflexus torquis and the Link to Sea-Ice Ecosystem Specialism
Sea ice is a highly dynamic and productive environment that includes a diverse array of psychrophilic prokaryotic and eukaryotic taxa distinct from the underlying water column. Because sea ice has only been extensive on Earth since the mid-Eocene, it has been hypothesized that bacteria highly adapted to inhabit sea ice have traits that have been acquired through horizontal gene transfer (HGT). ...
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of a Novel Marinobacter sp. Strain from Honolulu Harbor, Hawai‘i
Marinobacter sp. strain X15-166BT was cultivated from sediment in Honolulu Harbor, Hawai'i. The X15-166BT draft genome of 3,490,661 bp encodes 3,115 protein-coding open reading frames. We anticipate that the genome will provide insights into the strain's lifestyle and the evolution of Marinobacter.
متن کاملMarinobacter segnicrescens sp. nov., a moderate halophile isolated from benthic sediment of the South China Sea.
A Gram-negative, motile, non-spore-forming and moderately halophilic ellipsoid-shaped marine coccobacillus, designated strain SS011B1-4(T), was isolated from benthic sediment of the South China Sea. Optimum growth occurred at 30-37 degrees C, pH 7.5-8.0 and 4-8 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain SS011B1-4(T) utilized a variety of organic substrates as sole carbon sources, but did not utilize toluene, n-tetra...

Two non-pigmented, motile, Gram-negative marine bacteria designated R9SW1T and A3d10T were isolated from sea water samples collected from Chazhma Bay, Gulf of Peter the Great, Sea of Japan, Pacific Ocean, Russia and St. Kilda Beach, Port Phillip Bay, the Tasman Sea, Pacific Ocean, respectively. Both organisms were found to grow between 4 °C and 40 °C, between pH 6 to 9, and are moderately halop...
