Comparative genome characterization of Echinicola marina sp. nov., isolated from deep-sea sediment provide insight into carotenoid biosynthetic gene cluster evolution.

ABSTRACT: Echinicola, carotenoid-pigmented bacteria, are isolated from various hypersaline environments. Carotenoid accumulation in response to salt stress can stabilize the cell membrane in order to survive. A pink-colored strain SCS 3-6 was isolated from the deep-sea sediment of the South China Sea. Growth was found to occur at 10-45 °C. The strain could tolerate 10% (w/v) NaCl concentration and grow at pH 5-9. The complete genome of SCS 3-6 comprises 5053 putative genes with a total 5,693,670 bp and an average G + C content of 40.11 mol%. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain SCS 3-6 was affiliated with the genus Echinicola, with the closely strains were Echinicola arenosa CAU 1574^T (98.29%)and Echinicola shivajiensis AK12^T (97.98%). For Echinicola species with available genome sequences, pairwise comparisons for average nucleotide identity (ANI) and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization (DDH) revealed ANIb values from 70.77 to 74.71%, ANIm values from 82.72 to 88.88%, and DDH values from 18.00 to 23.40%. To identify their genomic features, we compared their genomes with those of other Echinicola species. Phylogenetic analysis showed that strain SCS 3-6 formed a monophyletic clade. Genomic analysis revealed that strain SCS 3-6 possessed a complete synthetic pathway of carotenoid and speculated that the production was astaxanthin. Based on phenotypic and genotypic analyses in this study, strain SCS 3-6 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Echinicola for which the name Echinicola marina sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SCS 3-6^T (= GDMCC 1.2220^T = JCM 34403^T).

Project description:Two non-pigmented, motile, Gram-negative marine bacteria designated R9SW1T and A3d10T were isolated from sea water samples collected from Chazhma Bay, Gulf of Peter the Great, Sea of Japan, Pacific Ocean, Russia and St. Kilda Beach, Port Phillip Bay, the Tasman Sea, Pacific Ocean, respectively. Both organisms were found to grow between 4 °C and 40 °C, between pH 6 to 9, and are moderately halophilic, tolerating up to 20% (w/v) NaCl. Both strains were found to be able to degrade Tween 40 and 80, but only strain R9SW1T was found to be able to degrade starch. The major fatty acids were characteristic for the genus Marinobacter including C16:0, C16:1ω7c, C18:1ω9c and C18:1ω7c. The G+C content of the DNA for strains R9SW1T and A3d10T were determined to be 57.1 mol% and 57.6 mol%, respectively. The two new strains share 97.6% of their 16S rRNA gene sequences, with 82.3% similarity in the average nucleotide identity (ANI), 19.8% similarity in the in silico genome-to-genome distance (GGD), 68.1% similarity in the average amino acid identity (AAI) of all conserved protein-coding genes, and 31 of the Karlin's genomic signature dissimilarity. A phylogenetic analysis showed that R9SW1T clusters with M. algicola DG893T sharing 99.40%, and A3d10T clusters with M. sediminum R65T sharing 99.53% of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities. The results of the genomic and polyphasic taxonomic study, including genomic, genetic, phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA, gyrB and rpoD gene sequence similarities, the analysis of the protein profiles generated using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and DNA-DNA relatedness data, indicated that strains R9SW1T and A3d10(T) represent two novel species of the genus Marinobacter. The names Marinobacter salarius sp. nov., with the type strain R9SW1(T) ( = LMG 27497(T) = JCM 19399(T) = CIP 110588(T) = KMM 7502(T)) and Marinobacter similis sp. nov., with the type strain A3d10(T) ( = JCM 19398(T) = CIP 110589(T) = KMM 7501T), are proposed.

Project description:A modified in situ cultivation technique was developed and applied to resource mining of uncultured microbes from marine sediments of Meishan Island in the East China Sea. Two novel strains NBU2968T and NBU2984T were isolated by this method but not standard Petri dish, which indicated the modified technique was more effective compared to conventional approaches for isolating uncultured microbes and could be popularized and applied to other aquatic environments. The two novel strains were identified by the polyphasic taxonomic approach. Cells of both strains were observed to be Gram-staining-negative, rod-shaped, nonmotile, aerobic, and yellow-pigmented. Catalase and oxidase activities and hydrolysis of Tweens 40, 60, and 80 of two novel strains were positive. Methyl red reaction, H2S production, and hydrolysis of Tween 20 were negative. According to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, two novel strains shared the highest similarities (96.4-97.7%) to the species with a validated name in the genus Hanstruepera, while shared lower sequence similarities (<95.6%) to all other genera. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that strains NBU2968T and NBU2984T were affiliated with the genus Hanstruepera. ANI and dDDH values between the two novel strains and Hanstruepera species were 77.4-78.3% and 20.4-20.9%, respectively, which were below the thresholds for species delineation. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, ANI, and dDDH values between the two novel strains were 99.3, 88.9, and 36.3%, respectively, indicating that the two strains represent different species. The genomes of NBU2968T and NBU2984T were 3.28 Mbp with a G+C content of 34.2% and 3.09 Mbp with a G+C content of 34.4%, respectively. The only respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6 (MK-6). The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15:0, iso-C15:1G, and iso-C17:0 3-OH. The major polar lipids of the two strains were phosphatidylethanolamine, unidentified amino lipids, and unidentified lipids. Based on the above polyphasic characteristics, strains NBU2968T and NBU2984T represent two novel species within the genus Hanstruepera, for which the names Hanstruepera marina sp. nov. and Hanstruepera flava sp. nov. are proposed. The type strains are NBU2968T (= MCCC 1K06392T= KCTC 82913T) and NBU2984T (= MCCC 1K07472T= KCTC 92511T), respectively.

Project description:A novel Gram-negative, motile, aerobic rod-shaped bacterium designated BGMRC 2031T was isolated from mangrove sediment collected from Guangxi Province, China. Optimal growth occurred at 28 °C and pH 7.0-8.0 in the presence of 1% (w/v) NaCl. Alignment based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain BGMRC 2031T is most closely related to Sodalis praecaptivus HS1T (95.6%, sequence similarity), followed by Biostraticola tofi DSM 19580T (95.5%), Sodalis glossinidius DSM 16929T (95.4%), and Brenneria goodwinii FRB141T (94.9%) sequence similarity. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain BGMRC 2031T formed a distinct branch in a robust cluster and revealed that strain BGMRC 2031T, genera Biostraticola and Sodalis, formed a novel family-level clade in the order Enterobacterales. The novel strain showed an average nucleotide similarity of 74.7%, 74.2%, and 73.1% for S. praecaptivus HS1T, S. glossinidius DSM 16929T, and B. tofi DSM 19580T, respectively. The genomes of the BGMRC 2031T shared the presence of a riboflavin synthesis gene cluster. The menaquinones of strain BGMRC 2031T were MK-8 and Q-8, which were similar to those of genus Biostraticola. The major fatty acids (> 10%) were C16:0 (19.9%), summed feature 2 (iso-C16:1 and/or C14:0 3-OH, 18.10%), summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c, 15.3%), C12:0 (13.9%), C17:0 cyclo (11.4%), and C14:0 (10.4%). The main polar lipids were phosphatidyl methylethanolamine, phosphatidyl glycerol, diphosphatidyl glycerol, phosphatidyl inositol, one unidentified phospholipid, and one unknown polar lipid. The G+C content of strain BGMRC 2031T was 55.4%. Strain BGMRC 2031T could extend the mean lifespan and maximum lifespan of Caenorhabditis elegans by 4.5% and 12.5%, respectively. Overall, the results of this study indicate that BGMRC 2031T is a novel species in a new genus, for which the name Bruguierivorax albus gen. nov. sp. nov. is proposed, and the type of strain is designated as BGMRC 2031T (= NBRC 111907T = KCTC 52119T). In addition, a novel family, Bruguierivoracaceae fam. nov., is proposed to accommodate the genera Bruguierivorax, Biostraticola, and Sodalis.
