Zobellia Galactanivorans
''Zobellia galactanivorans'' is a gram-negative marine bacterium isolated from the surface of red algae of the coast of France. ''Z. galactanivorans'' forms yellow colonies with a bacillus or diplobacillus morphology. Furthermore, it is mesophilic and can grow degrade carrageenans and agars - both found in the cell wall of red algae. ''Z. galactanivorans'' contains the gene porA and porB, each encoding a β-porphyranase. β-porphyranase porA and porB are catalytic enzymes that hydrolyze the β-D-galactopyranose (1→4) α-L-galactopyranose-6-sulfate linkage in porphyran. There is a 35% sequence similarity between β-Porphyranase-B and β-Porphyranase-A. Horizontal gene transfer Orthologs between ''Z. galactanivorans'' and ''Bacteroides plebeius-1698'', a strain of ''Bacteroides plebeius'', contain a sequence similarity of 48%-69%. Homologous genes between other ''Bacteroides'' species only have a 30% sequence similarity. Moreover, porphyranase genes in both ''Z. g ...

Flavobacteriaceae
Flavobacteriaceae is a family of rod-shaped gram negative bacteria. The family contains many environmental bacteria, with some species being potential pathogens. History The family of ''Flavobacteriaceae'' was first proposed by Reichenbach in 1989, it was approved by the IJSEM in 1992. The description of the family was emended several times in 1996 and 2002. In 2020, the family was split, with several genera moved to the newly established family of '' Weeksellaceae''. Biology Species of the ''Flavobacteriaceae'' are predominantly rod-shaped and stain gram-negative. Many species in the ''Flavobacteriaceae'' are motile, with most non-motile species formerly placed in the family now being placed in the '' Weeksellaceae''. Most species are aerobic, while some are microaerobic to anaerobic; for example '' Capnocytophaga'' and '' Coenonia''. Several members of the family are considered halophilic or psychrotolerant. The predominant respiratory quinone is menaquinone-6. The ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
LPSN
List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) is an online database that maintains information on the naming and taxonomy image:Hierarchical clustering diagram.png, 280px, Generalized scheme of taxonomy Taxonomy is a practice and science concerned with classification or categorization. Typically, there are two parts to it: the development of an underlying scheme o ... of prokaryotes, following the taxonomy requirements and rulings of the International Code of Nomenclature of Prokaryotes. The database was curated from 1997 to June 2013 by Jean P. Euzéby. From July 2013 to January 2020, LPSN was curated by Aidan C. Parte. In February 2020, a new version of LPSN was published as a service of the Leibniz Institute DSMZ, thereby also integrating the Prokaryotic Nomenclature Up-to-date service and since 2022 LPSN is interconnected with the Type (Strain) Genome Server (TYGS), DSMZ's high-throughput platform for accurate genome-based taxonomy.

Aerobic Organism
An aerobic organism or aerobe is an organism that can survive and grow in an oxygenated environment. The ability to exhibit aerobic respiration may yield benefits to the aerobic organism, as aerobic respiration yields more energy than anaerobic respiration. Energy production of the cell involves the synthesis of ATP by an enzyme called ATP synthase. In aerobic respiration, ATP synthase is coupled with an electron transport chain in which oxygen acts as a terminal electron acceptor. In July 2020, marine biologists reported that aerobic microorganisms (mainly), in " quasi-suspended animation", were found in organically poor sediments, up to 101.5 million years old, 250 feet below the seafloor in the South Pacific Gyre (SPG) ("the deadest spot in the ocean"), and could be the longest-living life forms ever found. Types * Obligate aerobes need oxygen to grow. In a process known as cellular respiration, these organisms use oxygen to oxidize substrates (for example sugars and ...

Flavobacteria
The class Flavobacteriia is composed of a single class of environmental bacteria. It contains the family Flavobacteriaceae, which is the largest family in the phylum Bacteroidota. This class is widely distributed in soil, fresh, and seawater habitats. The name is often spelt Flavobacteria, but was officially named Flavobacteriia in 2012. Flavobacteriia are gram-negative aerobic rods, 2–5 μm long, 0.1–0.5 μm wide, with rounded or tapered ends. They form circular cream to orange coloured colonies on agar, and are typically simple to successfully culture. Flavobacteriia is a chemoorganotroph and are known for their ability to mineralize or degrade dissolved organic matter of high molecular weight and particulate plant material. Flavobacteriia have impacts on both the environment and human society, as they are able to cause diseases in many organisms. They are important in the decomposition of organic matter and pollutants, and are key members in the formation of marin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
