Genomic analysis of Skermanella stibiiresistens type strain SB22T
نویسندگان
چکیده
Members of genus Skermanella were described as Gram-negative, motile, aerobic, rod-shaped, obligate-heterotrophic bacteria and unable to fix nitrogen. In this study, the genome sequence of Skermanella stibiiresistens SB22(T) is reported. Phylogenetic analysis using core proteins confirmed the phylogenetic assignment based on 16S rRNA gene sequences. Strain SB22(T) has all the proteins for complete glycolysis, tricarboxylic acid cycle and pentose phosphate pathway. The RuBisCO encoding genes cbbL1S1 and nitrogenase delta subunit gene anfG are absent, consistent with its inability to fix carbon and nitrogen, respectively. In addition, the genome possesses a series of flagellar assembly and chemotaxis genes to ensure its motility.

The genera Azospirillum, Skermanella and Rhodocista form a phylogenetic subgroup within the alfa subclass of Proteobacteria. Based on comparative 16S rRNA sequence analysis a nested set of new oligonucleotide probes was designed. It comprises probes for the whole genus cluster Azospirillum-Skermanella-Rhodocista, for the Azospirilli subcluster I including A. lipoferum, A. doebereinerae, A. larg...

Clostridium perfringens is a gram-positive, obligate anaerobic bacterium, which is widely distributed in the environment. C. perfringens is subdivided to 5 groups (types A to E), based on its four major toxin (alpha, beta, epsilon and iota). C. perfringens type B beta toxin causes inflammation and bloody necrotic enteritis. Type B related enterotoxaemia is a major problem of veterinary sciences...
متن کاملCloning and sequencing of Toxoplasma gondii major surface antigen (SAG1) gene
Genetic typing methods of T. gondii strains have been extensively perfected in recent years. From a technical point of view, many tools usable for genetic studied on single-copy loci have been used: RFLP, PCR-RFLP, sequencing, RAPD-PCR and isoenzyme analysis. We described the cloning and sequence analysis of the gene which encodes the major surface antigen (SAG1 or P30) of T. gondii. SAG1 is ...

Abstract Background and Objective: Paratuberculosis has been repeatedly reported from Iranian ruminant herds. The extrem fastidious nature of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculsos hinders genomic diversity studies of the pathogen. Short Sequence Repeat analysis is one of the genome-based approches recently developed to overcome this d...

An alphaproteobacterium, strain Dia-1(T), was isolated from algae-dominated biofilms on stones from the littoral zone of Lake Constance, Germany. This bacterium was isolated after initial enrichment in spent medium obtained after growth of a diatom culture. Numerous sugars and some organic acids and alcohols served as growth substrates. The bacterium grew slowly, was strictly aerobic but microa...
