ABSTRACT
Ecological studies on marine microbial communities largely focus on fundamental biogeochemical processes or the most abundant constituents, while minor biological fractions are frequently neglected. Youngimonas vesicularis CC-AMW-ET, isolated from coastal surface seawater in Taiwan, is an under-represented marine Paracoccaceae (earlier Rhodobacteraceae) member. The CC-AMW-ET genome was sequenced to gain deeper insights into its role in marine carbon and sulfur cycles. The draft genome (3.7 Mb) contained 63.6% GC, 3773 coding sequences and 51 RNAs, and displayed maximum relatedness (79.06%) to Thalassobius litoralis KU5D5T, a Roseobacteraceae member. While phototrophic genes were absent, genes encoding two distinct subunits of carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CoxL, BMS/Form II and a novel form III; CoxM and CoxS), and proteins involved in HCO3- uptake and interconversion, and anaplerotic HCO3- fixation were found. In addition, a gene coding for ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO, form II), which fixes atmospheric CO2 was found in CC-AMW-ET. Genes for complete assimilatory sulfate reduction, sulfide oxidation (sulfidequinone oxidoreductase, SqrA type) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) cleavage (DMSP lyase, DddL) were also identified. Furthermore, genes that degrade aromatic hydrocarbons such as quinate, salicylate, salicylate ester, p-hydroxybenzoate, catechol, gentisate, homogentisate, protocatechuate, 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid, N-heterocyclic aromatic compounds and aromatic amines were present. Thus, Youngimonas vesicularis CC-AMW-ET is a potential chemolithoautotroph equipped with genetic machinery for the metabolism of aromatics, and predicted to play crucial roles in the biogeochemical cycling of marine carbon and sulfur.
