Abstract

A Gram-positive, halophilic bacterium, strain CAU 9536(T), was isolated from a tidal flat sediment in the Yellow Sea, Republic of Korea. Strain CAU 9536(T) grew optimally at 30 °C, at pH 9.0 and in the presence of 13.0 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain CAU 9536(T) belonged to the genus Serinicoccus, and showed sequence similarity levels of 99.0 % to Serinicoccus profundi MCCC 1A05965(T) and 98.0 % to Serinicoccus marinus JC1078(T). DNA-DNA relatedness values between strain CAU 9536(T) and the above two type strains were below 45.0 %. The cell-wall peptidoglycan of strain CAU 9536(T) was based on meso-diaminopimelic acid, in contrast to those of S. profundi and S. marinus. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol. Whole-cell hydrolysates contained mainly glucose and ribose. The major isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone MK-8 (H(4)), and the predominant cellular fatty acid was iso-C(15 : 0). The DNA G+C content of strain CAU 9536(T) was 73.5 mol%. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic data, strain CAU 9536(T) is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Serinicoccus, for which the na...Continue Reading

Bacterial Cell Wall Structure

Bacterial cell walls are made of peptidoglycan (also called murein), which is made from polysaccharide chains cross-linked by unusual peptides containing D-amino acids. Here is the latest research on bacterial cell wall structures.
