RESUMEN
Two Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile, non-flagellated bacteria, designated strains D6T and DH64T, were isolated from surface water of the Pacific Ocean. For strain D6T, growth occurred at 10-40â°C, pH 5.5-9.0 and in the presence of 0-8.0â% NaCl (w/v). For strain DH64T, growth occurred at 10-40â°C, pH 5.5-8.5 and in the presence of 0.5-8.0â% NaCl (w/v). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strains D6T and DH64T both belonged to the genera Flagellimonas, with the highest sequence identities to Flagellimonas taeanensis JCM 17757T (98.2â%) and Flagellimonas marinaquae JCM 11811T (98.6â%), respectively. The 16S rRNA gene sequence identity between strains D6T and DH64T was 95.9â%. The average amino acid identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between the two strains and the nearest phylogenetic neighbours were 66.7-93.3â% and 16.1-38.5â%, respectively. The major respiratory quinone of both strains was menaquinone-6. The major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. The major fatty acids were identified similarly as iso-C15â:â1 G, iso-C15â:â0 and iso-C17â:â0 3-OH. The genomic G+C contents of strains D6T and DH64T were determined to be 45.5 and 42.6 mol%, respectively. The combined genotypic and phenotypic data show that the strains represent two novel species within genera Flagellimonas, for which the names Flagellimonas baculiformis sp. nov. and Flagellimonas crocea sp. nov. are proposed, with type strains D6T (=MCCC M28982T=KCTC 92604T) and DH64T (=MCCC M28986T=KCTC 92975T).

Two Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped and non-motile strains, designated as DY56-A-20T and G39T, were isolated from deep-sea sediment of the Pacific Ocean and deep-sea seawater of the Indian Ocean, respectively. Strain DY56-A-20T was found to grow at 15-37â°C (optimum, 28â°C), at pH 6.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 6.5-7.0) and in 0.5-6.0â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1.0-2.0â%), while strain G39T was found to grow at 10-42â°C (optimum, 35-40â°C), at pH 5.5-10.0 (optimum, pH 6.5-7.0) and in 0-12.0â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 1.0-2.0â%). The 16S rRNA gene sequence identity analysis indicated that strain DY56-A-20T had the highest sequence identity with Qipengyuania marisflavi KEM-5T (97.6â%), while strain G39T displayed the highest sequence identity with Qipengyuania citrea H150T (98.8â%). The phylogenomic reconstruction indicated that both strains formed independent clades within the genus Qipengyuania. The digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values between strains DY56-A-20T/G39T and Qipengyuania/Erythrobacter type strains were 17.8-23.8â% and 70.7-81.1â%, respectively, which are below species delineation thresholds. The genome DNA G+C contents were 65.0 and 63.5âmol% for strains DY56-A-20T and G39T, respectively. The predominant cellular fatty acids (>10â%) of strain DY56-A-20T were C17â:â1 ω6c, summed feature 8 and summed feature 3, and the major cellular fatty acids of strain G39T were C17â:â1 ω6c and summed feature 8. The major polar lipids in both strains were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, sphingoglycolipid and an unidentified polar lipid. The only respiratory quinone present in both strains was ubiquinone-10. Based on those genotypic and phenotypic results, the two strains represent two novel species belonging to the genus Qipengyuania, for which the names Qipengyuania benthica sp. nov. and Qipengyuania profundimaris sp. nov. are proposed. The type strain of Q. benthica is DY56-A-20T (=MCCC M27941T=KCTC 92309T), and the type strain of Q. profundimaris is G39T (=MCCC M30353T=KCTC 8208T).

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated C281T, was isolated from seawater sampled at the Marshallese seamount chain. Results of 16S rRNA gene analysis revealed that strain C281T was most closely related to Membranihabitans marinus CZ-AZ5T with 92.7â% sequence similarity. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the new isolate represented a novel species by forming a distinctive lineage within the family Saprospiraceae. The DNA G+C content of strain C281T was 38.4âmol%. The genome sizes of strain C281T and the reference strain M. marinus CZ-AZ5T were 5 962 917 and 5 395 999 bp, respectively. The average nucleotide identity and in silico DNA-DNA hybridization values between strains C281T and M. marinus CZ-AZ5T were found to be low (69.3 and 17.6â%, respectively). Different functional genes were found in the genome of strain C281T, such as CZC CBA, polysaccharide utilization loci and linear azol(in)e-containing peptide cluster coding genes. The NaCl range for growth was 0.5-15.0â%. Positive results were obtained for hydrolysis of Tween 60 and urease. MK-7 was the sole respiratory quinone. The major fatty acids were C16â:â1 ω6c and/or C16â:â1 ω7c, iso-C15â:â0 and iso-C15â:â1 F. The major polar lipids of strain C281T were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified lipids and five unidentified glycolipids. On the basis of its taxonomic characteristics, the isolate represents a novel species of the genus Membranihabitans, for which the name Membranihabitans maritimus sp. nov. (type strain C281T=KCTC 92171T=MCCC M27001T) is proposed.

A Gram-staining-negative, non-motile, strictly aerobic bacterium, designated as strain TT11T, was isolated from a sediment sample of a tidal flat connected in Zhoushan, China. Cells of strain TT11T are spherical, halotolerant, catalase- and oxidase-positive, and produce carotenoid-like pigments. Colonies were 0.5-1.0 mm diameter, smooth, round, convex and orange-yellow after growth on marine agar at 30 °C for 24 h. Growth of the strain TT11T was observed at 10-40 °C (optimum, 35 °C), at pH 6.0-9.5 (optimum, pH 6.5), and in the presence of 0-8.0% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0.5-1.0%). The results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain TT11T represents a member of the genus Aestuariibaculum and was closely related to Aestuariibaculum suncheonense SC17T (97.2%) and Aestuariibaculum marinum IP7T (96.8%). The G + C content of the genome was 34.6%. The only respiratory quinone was MK-6. The major fatty acids (> 10%) were iso-C15:0, iso-C15:1 G and iso-C17:0 3-OH. The major polar lipids contained phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphoglycolipid, four unidentified aminolipids, four unidentified lipids and two unidentified glycolipids. On the basis of these genomic, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic characteristics, we propose a novel species Aestuariibaculum sediminum sp. nov. with the type strain TT11T (= KCTC 82195T = MCCC 1K04734T).

Emcibacter congregatus ZYLT was isolated from a sediment sample cultured in situ in a coast located in the East China Sea. The genome of E. congregatus ZYLT was sequenced and assembled into one single circular chromosome with the size of 4,189,011 bp and G+C content of 52.6%. Genomic annotation showed that E. congregatus ZYLT had an intact Type II-C CRISPR-Cas system consists of three cas genes (cas 9, cas 1, and cas 2), 34 direct repeat sequences with the length of 36 bp, and 33 spacers. The predicted Cas 9 protein was smaller than most of existing genome editing tools. This structure might have potential in developing new gene editing system and uncovering the regulatory mechanisms of CRISPR-Cas system. Besides, the comparison between E. congregatus ZYLT and its relative species living in neritic environments unraveled some common traits of the defective strategies of these bacteria to face inshore challenges including the motility, multidrug resistance, and universal efflux pumps.

A Gram-negative, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped, pale-yellow bacterial strain, designated as ZYLT, isolated from a cultured in situ sediment sample collected from the East China Sea coast, was studied using a polyphasic taxonomic approach. Strain ZYLT grew at 4-30 °C (optimum, 25 °C), at pH 6.0-8.5 (pH 7.0) and with 0-7.0â% (w/v) NaCl (2.0â%). Results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences clearly showed that strain ZYLT and Emcibacter nanhaiensis HTCJW17T, which was most closely related to strain ZYLT with 93.6â% sequence similarity, clustered together. The genomic DNA G+C content was 51.5â% (genome sequence). The quinone system was composed only of ubiquinone-10. Strain ZYLT possessed C18â:â1ω7c and/or C18â:â1ω6c (summed feature 8), iso-C15â:â0 2-OH and/or C16â:â1ω7c (summed feature 3), C14â:â0 2-OH and C14â:â0 as the major fatty acids. The content of summed feature 3 (iso-C15â:â0 2-OH and/or C16â:â1ω7c) in strain ZYLT was far greater than that in E. nanhaiensis. The polar lipid profile consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, three unidentified aminophospholipids, three unidentified phospholipids, one unidentified aminolipid and four unidentified lipids. One unidentified aminophospholipid and two unidentified lipids present in strain ZYLT were not found in E. nanhaiensis in this research.

The polar lipids of strain B7T were diphosphatidyglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, one unknown aminophospholipid, one unknown glycolipid and three unknown lipids. The DNA G+C content of the genomic DNA was 65.1 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain B7T belongs to the genus Mesorhizobium with similarities ranging from 96.2 to 97.5â%. Phylogenetic analyses of housekeeping genes recA, atpD and glnII indicated that strain B7T represented a distinct evolutionary lineage with the genus Mesorhizobium. OrthoANI values between strain B7T and related strains of the genus Mesorhizobium (<80â%) were lower than the threshold value of 95â% ANI relatedness for species demarcation. Therefore, strain B7T is concluded to represent a novel species of the genus Mesorhizobium, for which the name Mesorhizobium oceanicumsp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is B7T (=KCTC 42783T=MCCC 1K02305T).

A Gram-staining-negative, aerobic, non-spore-forming, coccoid to rod shaped bacteria with prosthecate and flagellum, designated as HSF6T, was isolated from deep seawater samples collected from the South China Sea at depth of 2.5 km and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic investigation. Colonies of strain HSF6T were 1-2 mm in diameter, smooth, circular, convex and yellow. Strain HSF6T was found to grow at 15-37 °C (optimum, 25-35 °C), pH 5.0-9.5 (optimum, pH 7.0-7.5) and with 0-8â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2â%). Chemotaxonomic analysis showed the predominant respiratory quinone of strains HSF6T were ubiquinone-10, and the major fatty acids were C18â:â1ω7c, C16â:â0 and 11-methyl C18â:â1ω7c. The polar lipids were monoglycosyldiglyceride (MGDG), sulfo-quinovosyl diacylglycerol (SQDG), three unknown glycolipids (GL1-3) and five unknown lipids (L1-5). The DNA G+C content of strain HSF6T was determined to be 51.0 mol% with HPLC. The comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities show that strain HSF6T was related most closely to genus Parvularcula with similarity ranging from 91.0 to 91.8â%. The phylogenetic trees, using the 16S rRNA gene sequence, reconstructed with neighbour-joining, maximum-parsimony and maximum-likelihood methods showed that strain HSF6T constituted a separated branch in the family 'Parvularculaceae'. Differential phenotypic properties, together with the phylogenetic distinctiveness, demonstrated that strain HSF6T is clearly distinct from validly published genera. On the basis of these features, we propose strain HSF6T (=MCCC 1K03223T=KCTC 52486T) represents a novel species of a novel genus with the name Hyphococcus flavus gen. nov., sp. nov.

The members of the phylum Bacteroidetes are recognized as some of the most important specialists for the degradation of polysaccharides. However, in contrast to research on Bacteroidetes in the human gut, research on polysaccharide degradation by marine Bacteroidetes is still rare. The genus Algibacter belongs to the Flavobacteriaceae family of the Bacteroidetes, and most species in this genus are isolated from or near the habitat of algae, indicating a preference for the complex polysaccharides of algae. In this work, a novel brown-seaweed-degrading strain designated HZ22 was isolated from the surface of a brown seaweed (Laminaria japonica). On the basis of its physiological, chemotaxonomic, and genotypic characteristics, it is proposed that strain HZ22 represents a novel species in the genus Algibacter with the proposed name Algibacter alginolytica sp. nov. The genome of strain HZ22, the type strain of this species, harbors 3,371 coding sequences (CDSs) and 255 carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), including 104 glycoside hydrolases (GHs) and 18 polysaccharide lyases (PLs); this appears to be the highest proportion of CAZymes (â¼7.5%) among the reported strains in the class Flavobacteria Seventeen polysaccharide utilization loci (PUL) are predicted to be specific for marine polysaccharides, especially algal polysaccharides from red, green, and brown seaweeds. In particular, PUL N is predicted to be specific for alginate. Taking these findings together with the results of assays of crude alginate lyases, we prove that strain HZ22(T) can completely degrade alginate. This work reveals that strain HZ22(T) has good potential for the degradation of algal polysaccharides and that the structure and related mechanism of PUL in strain HZ22(T) are worth further research.

A Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, motile and rod-shaped strain, designed H2T, was isolated from the Western Pacific Ocean, and subjected to a taxonomic investigation using a polyphasic approach. Strain H2T grew at 15-40 °C and pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum 37 °C and pH 6.5), and with 1-10 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 2 %). The predominant respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10) and the major fatty acids identified were C19 : 0 cyclo ω8c, C18 : 1ω7c, C18 : 0 and 11-methyl-C18 : 1ω7c. The polar lipids of strain H2T consisted of phosphatidylglycerol, one unknown phospholipid, one unknown glycolipid and three unidentified aminolipids. The DNA G+C content was 75.0 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain H2T formed a distinct clade belong to the family Rhodospirillaceae within the Alphaproteobacteria. On the basis of morphological, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, together with the results of phylogenetic analysis, strain H2T represents a novel species in a new genus in the family Rhodospirillaceae, for which the name Marinibaculumpumilum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is H2T(=MCCC 1K02279T=KCTC 42964T).

A Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacterium, designated WM3T, was isolated from surface seawater collected from the East China Sea. Cells were catalase- and oxidase-positive, short rods and motile by means of a single polar flagellum. Growth occurred at 15-43 °C (optimum 37-40 C), pH 5.5-9.5 (optimum pH 6.5-7.5) and with 0.25-9.0 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 1.0-1.5 %). Chemotaxonomic analysis showed that the respiratory quinone was ubiquinone-8, the major fatty acids included C16 : 0 (23.6 %), C18 : 1ω7c (26.2 %) and summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω7c and/or iso-C15 : 0 2-OH, 22.1 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain WM3T was most closely related to the genus Marinobacterium, sharing the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 95.5 % with both Marinobacterium litorale KCTC 12756T and Marinobacterium mangrovicola DSM 27697T. The genomic DNA G+C content of the strain WM3T was 55.8 mol%. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and genotypic characteristics presented in this study, strain WM3T is suggested to represent a novel species of the genus Marinobacterium, for which the name Marinobacterium zhoushanense sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WM3T (=KCTC 42782T=CGMCC 1.15341T).

In the present study, after the exo-inulinase gene INU1 from Meyerozyma guilliermondii was optimized according to the codon usage bias of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, both the optimized gene INU1Y and the native gene INU1 were ligated into the homologous integration expression vector pMIRSC11 and expressed in Saccharomyces sp. W0. It was determined that the inulinase activity of the recombinant yeast Y13 with the optimized gene INU1Y was 43.84 U/mL, which was obviously higher than that (31.39 U/mL) produced by the recombinant yeast EX3 with the native gene INU1. Moreover, it was indicated that the recombinant yeast Y13 could produce 126.30 mg/mL ethanol from 300.0 g/L inulin while the recombinant yeast EX3 and Saccharomyces sp. W0 produced 122.75 mg/mL and 114.15 mg/mL ethanol, respectively, under the same conditions. In addition, the ethanol productivity of the recombinant yeast Y13 was 2.25 mg/mL/h within 48 h of the fermentation, which was obviously higher than that of the recombinant yeast EX3 (1.97 mg/mL/h) and Saccharomyces sp. W0 (1.77 mg/mL/h) within the same period. The results demonstrated that the recombinant yeast Y13 had higher ethanol production and productivity than the recombinant yeast EX3 and Saccharomyces sp. W0. Therefore, it was concluded that the codon optimization of the exo-inulinase gene from M. guilliermondii effectively enhanced inulinase activity and improved ethanol production from inulin by Saccharomyces sp. W0 carrying the optimized inulinase gene.

Carbon fixation by chemoautotrophic microorganisms in the dark ocean makes a large contribution to oceanic primary production and the global carbon cycle. In contrast to the Calvin cycle-dominated carbon-fixing pathway in the marine euphotic zone, carbon-fixing pathways and their hosts in deep-sea areas are diverse. In this study, four deep-sea sediment samples close to hydrothermal vents in the southwestern Indian Ocean were collected and processed using metagenomic analysis to investigate carbon fixation potential. Functional annotations revealed that all six carbon-fixing pathways had genes to varied degrees present in the samples. The reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle and Calvin cycle genes occurred in all samples, in contrast to the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway, which previous studies found mainly in the hydrothermal area. The annotations also elucidated the chemoautotrophic microbial members associated with the six carbon-fixing pathways, and the majority of them containing key carbon fixation genes belonged to the phyla Pseudomonadota and Desulfobacterota. The binned metagenome-assembled genomes revealed that key genes for the Calvin cycle and the 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle were also found in the order Rhodothermales and the family Hyphomicrobiaceae. By identifying the carbon metabolic pathways and microbial populations in the hydrothermal fields of the southwest Indian Ocean, our study sheds light on complex biogeochemical processes in deep-sea environments and lays the foundation for further in-depth investigations of carbon fixation processes in deep-sea ecosystems.

In this study, a pyruvate carboxylase gene (PYC1) from a marine fungus Penicillium rubens I607 was cloned and characterized. ORF of the gene (accession number: KM397349.1) had 3534 bp encoding 1177 amino acids with a molecular weight of 127.531 kDa and a PI of 6.20. The promoter of the gene was located at -1200 bp and contained a TATAA box, several CAAT boxes and a sequence 5'-SYGGRG-3'. The PYC1 deduced from the gene had no signal peptide, was a homotetramer (α4), and had the four functional domains. After expression of the PYC1 gene from the marine fungus in the marine-derived yeast Yarrowia lipolytica SWJ-1b, the transformant PR32 obtained had much higher specific pyruvate carboxylase activity (0.53 U/mg) than Y. lipolytica SWJ-1b (0.07 U/mg), and the PYC1 gene expression (133.8%) and citric acid production (70.2 g/l) by the transformant PR32 were also greatly enhanced compared to those (100 % and 27.3 g/l) by Y. lipolytica SWJ-1b. When glucose concentration in the medium was 60.0 g/l, citric acid (CA) concentration formed by the transformant PR32 was 36.1 g/l, leading to conversion of 62.1% of glucose into CA. During a 10-l fed-batch fermentation, the final concentration of CA was 111.1 ± 1.3 g/l, the yield was 0.93 g/g, the productivity was 0.46 g/l/h, and only 1.72 g/l reducing sugar was left in the fermented medium within 240 h. HPLC analysis showed that most of the fermentation products were CA. However, minor malic acid and other unknown products also existed in the culture.
