AI Article Synopsis

  • A new bacterial strain, R60(T), was isolated from marine sediment in the Sea of Japan and is identified as a yellow-pigmented, aerobic, Gram-negative bacterium.
  • Genetic analysis indicates that R60(T) is part of the genus Winogradskyella, but with less than 97% similarity to already known species.
  • The strain has distinct fatty acids and phenotypic traits that support its classification as a new species, proposed to be named Winogradskyella arenosi sp. nov.

Article Abstract

An aerobic, Gram-negative, yellow-pigmented, gliding bacterial strain, designated R60(T), was isolated from a marine sediment sample obtained from the Sea of Japan and was characterized by using a polyphasic approach. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showed that strain R60(T) belonged to the genus Winogradskyella, sharing <97 % sequence similarity with the type strains of recognized Winogradskyella species. The main fatty acids of strain R60(T) were iso-C(15 : 0) 3-OH, iso-C(16 : 0) 3-OH, iso-C(17 : 0) 3-OH, anteiso-C(17 : 0) 3-OH and iso-C(15 : 0), consistent with its assignment to the genus Winogradskyella. On the basis of phenotypic distinctiveness and phylogenetic divergence, strain R60(T) is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Winogradskyella, for which the name Winogradskyella arenosi sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is R60(T) (=KMM 3968(T) =NRIC 0748(T)= JCM 15527(T)).

Cold-temperate and Arctic hard bottom coastal ecosystems are dominated by kelp forests, which have a high biomass production and provide important ecosystem services, but are subject to change due to ocean warming. However, the photophysiological response to increasing temperature of ecologically relevant species, such as Laminaria digitata, might depend on the local thermal environment where the population has developed. Therefore, the effects of temperature on growth rate, biochemical composition, maximum quantum yield, photosynthetic quotient and carbon budget of young cultured sporophytes of Laminaria digitata from the Arctic at Spitsbergen (SPT; cultured at 4, 10 and 16 °C) and from the cold-temperate North Sea island of Helgoland (HLG; cultured at 10, 16 and 22 °C) were comparatively analyzed.

In the search for novel natural products with hepatoprotective effects against acetaminophen-induced acute liver injury, the marine-derived fungus WHUF0198 was investigated. Seventeen undescribed pyranopyridone alkaloids, aculeapyridones A-Q (-), were isolated by bioactivity-guided fractionation of an extract obtained by coculture of the WHUF0198 with the mangrove-associated fungus sp. DM27.

Two Gram-stain-negative, curved-rod-shaped, non-motile and aerobic bacteria W6 and I13 were isolated from marine sediment samples collected from Meishan Island located in the East China Sea. Catalase and oxidase activities and hydrolysis of Tween 40, 60 and 80 were positive for both strains, while nitrate reduction, indole production, methyl red reaction and HS production were negative. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA and genome sequences revealed that strains W6 and I13 formed distinct phylogenetic lineages within the genera and , respectively.

Chloroplast genomes present an alternative strategy for large-scale engineering of photosynthetic eukaryotes. Prior to our work, the chloroplast genomes of (204 kb) and (140 kb) had been cloned using bacterial and yeast artificial chromosome (BAC/YAC) libraries, respectively. These methods lack design flexibility as they are reliant upon the random capture of genomic fragments during BAC/YAC library creation; additionally, both demonstrated a low efficiency (≤ 10%) for correct assembly of the genome in yeast.
