genomic and physiological analysis reveals versatile metabolic capacity of deep sea Photobacterium phosphoreum ant 2200
Extremophiles, 2016Co-Authors: Clairelise Santini, Sophie Mangenot, Charlotte Guyomar, Shengda Zhang, Valerie Barbe, Weijia ZhangAbstract:Bacteria of the genus Photobacterium thrive worldwide in oceans and show substantial eco-physiological diversity including free-living, symbiotic and piezophilic life styles. Genomic characteristics underlying this variability across species are poorly understood. Here we carried out genomic and physiological analysis of Photobacterium phosphoreum strain ANT-2200, the first deep-sea luminous bacterium of which the genome has been sequenced. Using optical mapping we updated the genomic data and reassembled it into two chromosomes and a large plasmid. Genomic analysis revealed a versatile energy metabolic potential and physiological analysis confirmed its growth capacity by deriving energy from fermentation of glucose or maltose, by respiration with formate as electron donor and trimethlyamine N-oxide (TMAO), nitrate or fumarate as electron acceptors, or by chemo-organo-heterotrophic growth in rich media. Despite that it was isolated at a site with saturated dissolved oxygen, the ANT-2200 strain possesses four gene clusters coding for typical anaerobic enzymes, the TMAO reductases. Elevated hydrostatic pressure enhances the TMAO reductase activity, mainly due to the increase of isoenzyme TorA1. The high copy number of the TMAO reductase isoenzymes and pressure-enhanced activity might imply a strategy developed by bacteria to adapt to deep-sea habitats where the instant TMAO availability may increase with depth.

Photobacterium frigidiphilum sp nov a psychrophilic lipolytic bacterium isolated from deep sea sediments of edison seamount
International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2005Co-Authors: Hae Jeom Seo, Seung Seob Bae, Jung-hyun Lee, Sang Jin KimAbstract:A Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped, psychrophilic and weakly halophilic bacterial strain, SL13T, was isolated from deep-sea sediments (1450 m depth) of Edison Seamount in the western Pacific Ocean. Optimal growth of SL13T requires the presence of 1·5 % (w/v) NaCl, a pH of 6·0 and a temperature of 14 °C. The whole-cell fatty acid profile of the isolate includes C16 : 1 and C16 : 0 as major fatty acids and contains C20 : 5ω3. This is consistent with corresponding data for Photobacterium profundum. The DNA G+C content of strain SL13T is 43·8 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequences place this bacterium in the ‘Gammaproteobacteria’, within the genus Photobacterium. Sequence similarity analysis indicates that the closest relatives of strain SL13T are Photobacterium indicum (99·3 %), P. profundum (98·5 %) and Photobacterium lipolyticum (98·2 %). The DNA–DNA hybridization levels between the isolate and its closest known phylogenetic relatives, P. indicum, P. profundum and P. lipolyticum, are 27·1, 52·4 and 20·2 %, respectively. Thus strain SL13T represents a novel species of the genus Photobacterium, for which the name Photobacterium frigidiphilum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SL13T (=KCTC 12384T=JCM 12947T).

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2005Co-Authors: Hae Jeom Seo, Seung Seob Bae, Jung-hyun Lee, Sang Jin KimAbstract:A Gram-negative, motile, rod-shaped, psychrophilic and weakly halophilic bacterial strain, SL13(T), was isolated from deep-sea sediments (1450 m depth) of Edison Seamount in the western Pacific Ocean. Optimal growth of SL13(T) requires the presence of 1.5% (w/v) NaCl, a pH of 6.0 and a temperature of 14 degrees C. The whole-cell fatty acid profile of the isolate includes C16:1 and C16:0 as major fatty acids and contains C20:5omega3. This is consistent with corresponding data for Photobacterium profundum.

The DNA-DNA hybridization levels between the isolate and its closest known phylogenetic relatives, P. indicum, P. profundum and P. lipolyticum, are 27.1, 52.4 and 20.2%, respectively. Thus strain SL13(T) represents a novel species of the genus Photobacterium, for which the name Photobacterium frigidiphilum sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is SL13(T) (=KCTC 12384(T)=JCM 12947(T)).

Photobacterium aplysiae sp. nov., a lipolytic marine bacterium isolated from eggs of the sea hare Aplysia kurodai.
International journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology, 2005Co-Authors: Hae Jeom Seo, Seung Seob Bae, Jung-hyun Lee, Sung-hyun Yang, Sang Jin KimAbstract:A bacterium, named GMD509T, showing lipolytic activity was isolated from the eggs of the sea hare Aplysia kurodai collected at Mogiyeo (depth, 12 m), an uninhabited small island in the South Sea of Korea. The strain is Gram-negative, motile, facultatively anaerobic, mesophilic and weakly halophilic. Optimal growth of strain GMD509T occurs in the presence of 3.0 % (w/v) NaCl and at pH 8 and 25 degrees C. The whole-cell fatty acid profile of the isolate includes C16 : 1, C16 : 0 and C18 : 1 as major fatty acids and its DNA G+C content is 45 mol%. Phylogenetic analyses of 16S rRNA gene sequences place this bacterium in the gamma-Proteobacteria, within the genus Photobacterium. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain GMD509T is most similar to those of Photobacterium frigidiphilum (97.8 %), Photobacterium profundum (97.5 %) and Photobacterium indicum (97.4 %). DNA-DNA relatedness levels between the isolate and its closest known phylogenetic relatives, P. frigidiphilum and P. indicum, are 25.3 and 13.7 %, respectively. Strain GMD509T therefore represents a novel species, for which the name Photobacterium aplysiae sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain GMD509T (=KCTC 12383T=JCM 12948T).
