With the use of whole genome sequencing, the taxonomic status of Lactobacillus fermentum 90 TC-4 strain from Russian collections were studied. Complex analysis of phenotypical and genetic properties was conducted using phenotypic and molecular genetic methods. The main characteristics of the genome and biochemical activity profile of the strain were determined.

Aim: Confirmation of taxonomic position of Lactobacillus fermentum 90 TC-4 strain using phenotypic (classic microbiological, MALDI TOF mass-spectrometry) and genetic (16S rRNA gene segment sequencing and full genome sequencing) methods.
Materials And Methods: Object of the study--Lactobacillus fermentum 90 TC-4 strains from various collections. Mass-spectrometric analysis was carried out using Autoflex MALDI TOF mass-spectrometer (Bruker Daltonics, Germany), study of biochemical properties of the strain was carried out using API 50 CHL strips (Biomerueux, France), "DNA-sorb B" kitwas used for isolation ofgenome DNA (CRIE, Moscow).
We find that an electric current I exceeding the threshold value results in torsional strain of o-TaS3 samples with one contact freely suspended. The rotation angle deltavarphi of the free end achieves several degrees and exhibits hysteresis as a function of I. The sign of deltavarphi depends on the I polarity; a polar axis along the conducting chains (the c axis) is pointed out.
