sp. nov., an alginate- and agarose-assimilating bacterium isolated from the gut flora of a turban shell marine snail Free

Abstract

An agarose- and alginate-assimilating, Gram-reaction-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain SA2, was isolated from the gut of a turban shell sea snail () collected near Noto Peninsula, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain SA2 was 99.59 % identical to that of DSM 19141 and 98.19 % identical to that of DSM 17657. This suggested that strain SA2 could be a subspecies of or . However, DNA–DNA hybridization results showed only 37.5 % relatedness to DSM 19141 and 44.7 % relatedness to DSM 17657, which was far lower than the 70 % widely accepted to define common species. Strain SA2 could assimilate agarose as a sole carbon source, whereas strains DSM 19141 and DSM 17657 could not assimilate it at all. Furthermore, results using API 20NE and API ZYM kits indicated that their enzymic and physiological phenotypes were also different. These results suggested that strain SA2 represented a novel species within the genus . The major isoprenoid quinone in SA2 was Q-8, and its major polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. The major fatty acids were summed feature 3, (comprising Cω6 and/or Cω7), C, and summed feature 8 (comprising Cω6 and/or Cω7). The DNA G+C content of SA2 was 40.7 mol%. The name proposed for this novel species of the genus is sp. nov., with the type strain designated SA2 (=DSM 29824=NBRC 111146).
