Complete genome sequence of Algoriphagus sp. PR1, bacterial prey of a colony-forming choanoflagellate.

چکیده
Bacteria are the primary food source of choanoflagellates, the closest known relatives of animals. Studying signaling interactions between the Gram-negative Bacteroidetes bacterium Algoriphagus sp. PR1 and its predator, the choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta, provides a promising avenue for testing hypotheses regarding the involvement of bacteria in animal evolution. Here we announce the complete genome sequence of Algoriphagus sp. PR1 and initial findings from its annotation.

Algoriphagus machipongonensis sp. nov., co-isolated with a colonial choanoflagellate.
A Gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming bacterial strain, PR1(T), was isolated from a mud core sample containing colonial choanoflagellates near Hog Island, Virginia, USA. Strain PR1(T) grew optimally at 30 °C and with 3 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain PR1(T) contained MK-7 as the major menaquinone as well as carotenoids but lacked pigments of the flexirubin-type. The predominant fatty acids were i...
متن کاملA bacterial sulfonolipid triggers multicellular development in the closest living relatives of animals
Bacterially-produced small molecules exert profound influences on animal health, morphogenesis, and evolution through poorly understood mechanisms. In one of the closest living relatives of animals, the choanoflagellate Salpingoeca rosetta, we find that rosette colony development is induced by the prey bacterium Algoriphagus machipongonensis and its close relatives in the Bacteroidetes phylum. ...

Algoriphagus sp. NH1 is a multidrug-resistant bacterium isolated from coastal sediments of the northern Yellow Sea in China. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of NH1, with a size of 6,131,579 bp, average G+C content of 42.68%, and 5,746 predicted protein-coding sequences.
متن کاملAlgoriphagus terrigena sp. nov., isolated from soil.
A Gram-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming bacterial strain, DS-44T, was isolated from soil from Dokdo in Korea, and its taxonomic position was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. It grew optimally at 25 degrees C and in the presence of 2 % (w/v) NaCl. Strain DS-44T contained MK-7 as the predominant menaquinone and iso-C(15 : 0) and C(16 : 1)omega7c and/or iso-C(15 : 0) 2-OH as the...
متن کاملBacterial lipids activate, synergize, and inhibit a developmental switch in choanoflagellates.
In choanoflagellates, the closest living relatives of animals, multicellular rosette development is regulated by environmental bacteria. The simplicity of this evolutionarily relevant interaction provides an opportunity to identify the molecules and regulatory logic underpinning bacterial regulation of development. We find that the rosette-inducing bacterium Algoriphagus machipongonensis produc...
