AI Article Synopsis
- The manuscript describes a new bacterial strain called A621, characterized as Gram-negative motile rods forming green circular colonies on TCBS, isolated from the skin of the sharpnose pufferfish in Brazil.
- Optimal growth for A621 occurs at temperatures of 20-28 °C with 3% NaCl, and its genome consists of 4.224 Mb with 4431 coding genes and a G+C content of 44.5%.
- Genomic analysis classifies A621 as a new species within the Vibrio genus, named Vibrio fluminensis sp. nov., and reveals gene clusters that indicate potential ecological roles in its fish host.
Article Abstract
This manuscript provides the description of the bacterial strain A621 characterized by Gram negative motile rods, presenting green circular colonies on TCBS. It was obtained from the skin of the sharpnose pufferfish Canthigaster figueredoi (Tetraodontidae Family), collected in Arraial do Cabo, located in the Rio de Janeiro region, Brazil. Optimum growth occurs at 20-28 °C in the presence of 3% NaCl. The Genome sequence of the novel isolate consisted of 4.224 Mb, 4431 coding genes and G + C content of 44.5%. Genomic taxonomy analysis based on average amino acid (AAI), genome-to-genome-distance (GGDH) and phylogenetic reconstruction placed (A621= CBAS 741 = CAIM 1945 = CCMR 150) into a new species of the genus Vibrio (Vibrio fluminensis sp. nov). The genome of the novel species contains four gene clusters (~ 56.17 Kbp in total) coding for different types of bioactive compounds that hint to several possible ecological roles in the sharpnose pufferfish host.
