Novosphingobium lentum sp. nov., a psychrotolerant bacterium from a polychlorophenol bioremediation process
2005
A polychlorophenol-degrading strain, designated MT1T, and three MT1-like strains, MT101, MT103 and MT104, were isolated from a cold (4–8 °C) fluidized-bed process treating chlorophenol-contaminated groundwater in southern Finland. The organisms were Gram-negative, rod-shaped, catalase-positive, non-spore-forming and non-motile. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the strains belonged to the α-4 subclass of the Proteobacteria and were members of the genus Novosphingobium. The highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity observed for these strains was 96·5 % with the type strains of Novosphingobium hassiacum, Novosphingobium aromaticivorans and Novosphingobium s…
Complete sequencing of Novosphingobium sp. PP1Y reveals a biotechnologically meaningful metabolic pattern.
2014
Background Novosphingobium sp. strain PP1Y is a marine α-proteobacterium adapted to grow at the water/fuel oil interface. It exploits the aromatic fraction of fuel oils as a carbon and energy source. PP1Y is able to grow on a wide range of mono-, poly- and heterocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Here, we report the complete functional annotation of the whole Novosphingobium genome. Results PP1Y genome analysis and its comparison with other Sphingomonadal genomes has yielded novel insights into the molecular basis of PP1Y’s phenotypic traits, such as its peculiar ability to encapsulate and degrade the aromatic fraction of fuel oils. In particular, we have identified and dissected several highly …
