Genome insight and description of antibiotic producing Massilia antibiotica sp. nov., isolated from oil-contaminated soil.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: An ivory-coloured, motile, Gram-stain-negative bacterium, designated TW-1T was isolated from oil-contaminated experimental soil in Kyonggi University. The phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed, strain TW-1T formed a lineage within the family Oxalobacteraceae and clustered as members of the genus Massilia. The closest members were M. pinisoli T33T (98.8% sequence similarity), M. putida 6NM-7T (98.6%), M. arvi THG-RS2OT (98.5%), M. phosphatilytica 12-OD1T (98.3%) and M. niastensis 5516S-1T (98.2%). The sole respiratory quinone is ubiquinone-8. The major cellular fatty acids are hexadeconic acid, cis-9, methylenehexadeconic acid, summed feature 3 and summed feature 8. The major polar lipids are phosphatidylethanolamine, diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The DNA G + C content of the type strain is 66.3%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) relatedness values between strain TW-1T and closest members were below the threshold value for species demarcation. The genome size is 7,051,197 bp along with 46 contigs and 5,977 protein-coding genes. The genome showed 5 putative biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) that are responsible for different secondary metabolites. Cluster 2 showed thiopeptide BGC with no known cluster blast, indicating TW-1T might produce novel antimicrobial agent. The antimicrobial assessment also showed that strain TW-1T possessed inhibitory activity against Gram-negative pathogens (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). This is the first report of the species in the genus Massilia which produces antimicrobial compounds. Based on the polyphasic study, strain TW-1T represents novel species in the genus Massilia, for which the name Massilia antibiotica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is TW-1T (= KACC 21627T = NBRC 114363T).
