Strain CAU 1105T grows optimally at a temperature of 37 8C at pH 7 in the presence of 3 % (w/v) sea salt. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity analyses, the novel isolate was assigned to the genus Palleronia within the class Alphaproteobacteria and showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Palleronia marisminoris B33T (95.4 %). Strain CAU 1105T contained ubiquinone-10 as the only respiratory quinone and T C18 : 1v7c as the major cellular fatty acid. The DNA G+C content of strain CAU 1105 was 64.3 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic differentiation, phylogenetic and chemotaxonomic data, strain CAU 1105T represents a novel species of the genus Palleronia, for which the name Palleronia soli sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CAU 1105T (5KCTC 42298T5NBRC 110740T). An emended description of the genus Palleronia is also provided.

The strain was oxidase- and catalase-positive, metabolized a variety of carboxylic acids and sugars and produced lipase. Cells had an absolute requirement for artificial sea water, which could not be replaced by NaCl. A large in vivo absorption band at 870 nm indicated production of bacteriochlorophyll a. The predominant fatty acids of this organism were 16 : 0 and 18 : 1v7c, with 3-OH 10 : 0, 16 : 1v7c and 18 : 0 in lower amounts. The main polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylcholine. Ubiquinone 10 was produced. The DNA G+C content was 67 mol%. 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons indicated that the isolate represents a member of the Roseobacter clade within the a-Proteobacteria.

To address this issue, genome sequences of 32 Roseobacter isolates were analyzed for patterns in genome characteristics, gene inventory, and individual gene/ pathway distribution using three predictive frameworks: phylogenetic relatedness, lifestyle strategy and environmental origin of the isolate. For the first framework, a phylogeny containing five deeply branching clades was obtained from a concatenation of 70 conserved single-copy genes. Somewhat surprisingly, phylogenetic tree topology was not the best model for organizing genome characteristics or distribution patterns of individual genes/pathways, although it provided some predictive power. The lifestyle framework, established by grouping isolates according to evidence for heterotrophy, photoheterotrophy or autotrophy, explained more of the gene repertoire in this lineage.

Hill, Honors Research Advisor 1 West, B.E. ABSTRACT: Sponges produce an impressive variety of secondary metabolites that perform a variety of ecological functions. Many marine sponges even harbor diverse carotenoid compounds, an unusual class of secondary metabolites that animals are incapable of producing. Furthermore, sponges serve as hosts to an astonishingly diverse microbial community that can occupy up to sixty percent of a sponge's biomass. Our research ultimately hopes to link microbial species to the production of secondary compounds, like carotenoids, and to assess the ecological role of such compounds and their effect on sponge life history strategy.

This article is published with open access Abstract Chemolithoautotrophic nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) are key players in global nitrogen and carbon cycling. Members of the phylum Nitrospinae are the most abundant, known NOB in the oceans. To date, only two closely affiliated Nitrospinae species have been isolated, which are only distantly related to the environmentally abundant uncultured Nitrospinae clades. Here, we applied live cell sorting, activity screening, and subcultivation on marine nitrite-oxidizing enrichments to obtain novel marine Nitrospinae. Two binary cultures were obtained, each containing one Nitrospinae strain and one alphaproteobacterial heterotroph. The Nitrospinae strains represent two new genera, and one strain is more closely related 1234567890();,: 1234567890();,: to environmentally abundant Nitrospinae than previously cultured NOB. With an apparent half-saturation constant of 8.7 ± 2.5 µM, this strain has the highest affinity for nitrite among characterized marine NOB, while the other strain (16.2 ± 1.6 µM) and Nitrospina gracilis (20.1 ± 2.1 µM) displayed slightly lower nitrite affinities. The new strains and N. gracilis share core metabolic pathways for nitrite oxidation and CO2 fixation but differ remarkably in their genomic repertoires of terminal oxidases, use of organic N sources, alternative energy metabolisms, osmotic stress and phage defense.

Abstract A characteristic feature of the order Rhodobacterales is the presence of a large number of photoautotrophic and photo- heterotrophic species containing bacteriochlorophyll. Interestingly, these phototrophic species are phylogenetically mixed with chemotrophs. To better understand the origin of such variability, we sequenced the genomes of three closely related haloalkaliphilic species, differing in their phototrophic capacity and oxygen preference: the photoheterotrophic and faculta- tively anaerobic bacterium Rhodobaca barguzinensis, aerobic photoheterotroph Roseinatronobacter

  • 1 Supplementary Information Genomic and Kinetic Analysis of Novel
    Supplementary Information Genomic and kinetic analysis of novel Nitrospinae enriched by cell sorting Anna J. Mueller, Man-Young Jung, Cameron R. Strachan, Craig W. Herbold, Rasmus H. Kirkegaard, Michael Wagner, Holger Daims Supplementary Materials and Methods Isolation of accompanying heterotrophs Alphaproteobacterial heterotrophs were isolated from Nitrospinae containing co-cultures on Difco Marine Broth Agar 2216 (Difco, BD) at 28°C. Colonies were observed after ~3 days. After colony picking, the alphaproteobacterial strains were grown in liquid Difco Marine Broth (DB) media at 28°C for all subsequent experiments. To identify these organisms, their 16S rRNA genes were PCR-amplified, using the universal bacterial 16S rRNA gene-targeted primer pair 616V-1492R [1], and Sanger-sequenced (Microsynth). The obtained 16S rRNA gene sequences were subjected to BLASTN searches against the NCBI bacterial and archaeal 16S rRNA sequence database. The 16S rRNA gene sequences are available under the GenBank accession numbers MT338542 (Stappia sp.) and MT338538 (Maritimibacter sp.). Growth curves and nitrite oxidation Cells from 25 ml of nitrite-depleted cultures were harvested by centrifugation (4500×g, 20 min, 28°C using a swing-bucket rotor). The cells were subsequently washed with 2.5 ml and suspended in 500 µl of nitrite free medium. 100 µl of the washed and concentrated cells were inoculated into 25 ml of the strain-specific marine mineral medium (see main text Materials and Methods) with 1.1 mM and 0.55 mM nitrite for the EB and VA strain, respectively. The experiments were carried 1 out with biological quadruplicates. Samples for quantitative PCR (qPCR) and nitrite/nitrate quantification were regularly taken and stored at -20°C until further analysis.
