Gammaproteobacterium Thalassolituus oleivorans plays an important role in oil degradation in sea water through emulsifying crude oil and alkanes at low temperatures in polar sea environment. Here we report the complete genome sequence of K-188 strain (VKPM B-9394) isolated in the Barents Sea and compare it with other known Thalassolituus oleivorans strains. The Thalassolituus strains are differed in orthologs number of the genes of alkane degradation, transport proteins, genes of sugar utilization, endonucleases, signaling proteins, transcriptional regulators and presence of CRISPR/Cas locus. Also only the genome of K-188 contains the 3-hydroxyalkanoate synthetase.

Similarities and differences in bacterial communities between the Pearl River (Guangzhou section) and its estuary.

Background: The Pearl River and its estuary are highly exposed to anthropogenic disturbance. Because bacterial communities play an indispensable role in aquatic ecosystems, there has been an increased research focus on the statuses of these communities under human-induced perturbations.
Methods And Results: This study investigated the composition, diversity, and structure of bacterial communities across 29 sites from the Guangzhou section of the Pearl River (GZ) to the Pearl River Estuary (PRE) using 16S rRNA gene amplicons.

The marine obligate hydrocarbonoclastic bacterium MIL-1 metabolizes a broad range of aliphatic hydrocarbons almost exclusively as carbon and energy sources. We used LC-MS/MS shotgun proteomics to identify proteins involved in aerobic alkane degradation during growth on medium- (-C) or long-chain (-C) alkanes. During growth on -C, expresses an alkane monooxygenase system involved in terminal oxidation including two alkane 1-monooxygenases, a ferredoxin, a ferredoxin reductase and an aldehyde dehydrogenase.

In order to better understand the effects of biostimulation and bioaugmentation processes on a marine microbial community, three different mesocosm experiments were planned. Natural seawater (10.000L) was artificially polluted with crude oil (1L) and (1) inorganic nutrients (Biostimulating Mesocosm, BM), (2) inorganic nutrients and an inoculum of Alcanivorax borkumensis SK2 (Single Bioaugmentation Mesocosm, SBM), (3) inorganic nutrients and inoculums of A.
