RESUMEN
Filamentous Actinobacteria, recently renamed Actinomycetia, are the most prolific source of microbial bioactive natural products. Studies on biosynthetic gene clusters benefit from or require chromosome-level assemblies. Here, we provide DNA sequences from >1000 isolates: 881 complete genomes and 153 near-complete genomes, representing 28 genera and 389 species, including 244 likely novel species. All genomes are from filamentous isolates of the class Actinomycetia from the NBC culture collection. The largest genus is Streptomyces with 886 genomes including 742 complete assemblies. We use this data to show that analysis of complete genomes can bring biological understanding not previously derived from more fragmented sequences or less systematic datasets. We document the central and structured location of core genes and distal location of specialized metabolite biosynthetic gene clusters and duplicate core genes on the linear Streptomyces chromosome, and analyze the content and length of the terminal inverted repeats which are characteristic for Streptomyces. We then analyze the diversity of trans-AT polyketide synthase biosynthetic gene clusters, which encodes the machinery of a biotechnologically highly interesting compound class. These insights have both ecological and biotechnological implications in understanding the importance of high quality genomic resources and the complex role synteny plays in Actinomycetia biology.

BACKGROUND: Rhododendron delavayi is a natural shrub that is distributed at different elevations in the karst region of Bijie, China, and that has an important role in preventing land degradation in this region. In this study, we determined the soil mineral element contents and soil enzyme activities. The composition of the soil bacterial community of R. delavayi at three elevations (1448 m, 1643 m, and 1821 m) was analyzed by high-throughput sequencing, and the interrelationships among the soil bacterial communities, mineral elements, and enzyme activities were determined. RESULTS: The Shannon index of the soil bacterial community increased and then decreased with increasing elevation and was highest at 1643 m. Elevations increased the number of total nodes and edges of the soil bacterial community network, and more positive correlations at 1821 m suggested stronger intraspecific cooperation. Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria were the dominant phyla at all three elevations. The Mantel test and correlation analysis showed that Fe and soil urease significantly affected bacterial communities at 1448 m; interestingly, Chloroflexi was positively related to soil urease at 1448 m, and Actinobacteria was positively correlated with Ni and Zn at 1821 m. Fe and soil urease significantly influenced the bacterial communities at lower elevations, and high elevation (1821 m) enhanced the positive interactions of the soil bacteria, which might be a strategy for R. delavayi to adapt to high elevation environments. CONCLUSION: Elevation significantly influenced the composition of soil bacterial communities by affecting the content of soil mineral elements and soil enzyme activity.

The soil bacterium DP1B was isolated from a marine sediment collected off the coast of Randayan Island, Kalimantan Barat, Indonesia and identified based on 16S rDNA as Nocardiopsis alba. The bacterium was cultivated in seven different media (A1, ISP1, ISP2, ISP4, PDB, PC-1, and SCB) with three different solvents [distilled water, 5 % NaCl solution, artificial seawater (ASW)] combinations, shaken at 200 rpm, 30 °C, for 7 days. The culture broths were extracted with ethyl acetate and each extract was tested for its antimicrobial activity and brine shrimp lethality, and the chemical diversity was assessed using thin-layer chromatography (TLC), gas chromatography (GC), and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The result showed that almost all extracts showed antibacterial but not antifungal activity, whereas their brine shrimp toxicity levels vary from high to low. The best medium/solvent combinations for antibacterial activity and toxicity were PC-1 (in either distilled water, 5% NaCl solution, or ASW) and SCB in ASW. Different chemical diversity profiles were observed on TLC, GC-MS, and LC-MS/MS. Extracts from the PC-1 cultures seem to contain a significant number of cyclic dipeptides, whereas those from the SCB cultures contain sesquiterpenes, indicating that media and solvent compositions can affect the secondary metabolite profiles of DP1B. In addition, untargeted metabolomic analyses using LC-MS/MS showed many molecular ions that did not match with those in the Global Natural Products Social Molecular Networking (GNPS) database, suggesting that DP1B has great potential as a source of new natural products.

Two rod-shaped, obligate anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive bacteria isolated from the pig faeces were designated YH-ols2216 and YH-ols2217T. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that these isolates were most related to the members of the family Atopobiaceae, within the order Coriobacteriales, and Granulimonas faecalis KCTC 25474T with 92.0 and 92.5% similarities, respectively. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity within isolates was 99.9â%; and those between isolates YH-ols2216 and YH-ols2217T, and Atopobium minutum DSM 20586T, the type species of the type genus Atopobium within the family Atopobiaceae, were 88.5 and 88.7â%, respectively. Those between isolates and Coriobacterium glomerans PW2T, the type species of the type genus Coriobacterium within the family Coriobacteriaceae, were 88.7 and 89.1â%, respectively. The multi-locus sequence tree revealed that the isolates, alongside the genera Granulimonas and Leptogranulimonas, formed a distinct cluster between the families Atopobiaceae and Coriobacteriaceae. The average nucleotide identities and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values for the isolates and their most closely related strains ranged from 67.7 to 76.2â% and from 18.4 to 23.3â%, respectively. The main cellular fatty acids of the isolates were C18â:â0 DMA, C18â:â1 ω9c, C18â:â0 12OH, C18â:â0, and C16â:â0. The cell wall contained the peptidoglycan meso-diaminopimelic acid. Lactate was the main end-product of the isolates. The major polar lipids of isolate YH-ols2217T were aminophospholipid, aminolipids, and lipids. Menaquinones were not identified in the cells of the isolates. The DNA G+C contents of isolates YH-ols2216 and YH-ols2217T were 67.5 and 67.6âmol%, respectively. Considering these chemotaxonomic, phenotypic, and phylogenetic properties, Kribbibacteriaceae fam. nov. is proposed within the order Coriobacteriales. YH-ols2216 (=KCTC 25708=NBRC 116429) and YH-ols2217T (=KCTC 25709T=NBRC 116430T) represent a novel taxon within this new family and the name Kribbibacterium absianum gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. In addition, the genera Granulimonas and Leptogranulimonas are transferred to the family Kribbibacteriaceae fam. nov.

Two Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, oxidase- and catalase-negative, non-motile, and short rod-shaped actinomycetes, named SYSU T00b441T and SYSU T00b490, were isolated from tidal flat sediment located in Guangdong province, PR China. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity, average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between SYSU T00b441T and SYSU T00b490 were 99.3, 99.5 and 97.1â%, respectively. Strains SYSU T00b441T and SYSU T00b490 exhibited the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities to Actinotalea ferrariae CF 5-4T (97.1â%/98.2â%), with ANI values of 74.01/73.88â% and dDDH values of 20.5/20.4â%. In the phylogenomic tree, the two isolates were affiliated with the genus Actinotalea. The genomes of strains SYSU T00b441T and SYSU T00b490 were 3.31 and 3.34 Mb, and both had DNA G+C contents of 72.8âmol%, coding 3077 and 3085 CDSs, three and three rRNA genes, and 53 and 51 tRNAs, respectively. Growth occurred at 15-40â°C (optimum, 28-30â°C), pH 4.0-10.0 (optimum, 7.0) and in the presence of 0-7â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3â%). The major fatty acids (>10ââ%) of strains SYSU T00b441T and SYSU T00b490 were anteiso-C15â:â0 and C16â:â0. The major respiratory quinone was identified as MK-10(H4). The polar lipids of strains SYSU T00b441T and SYSU T00b490 were diphosphatidyl glycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphoglycolipid, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, two phosphatidylinositol mannosides, two glycolipids and two phospholipids. Based on these data, the two strains (SYSU T00b441T and SYSU T00b490) represent a novel species of the genus Actinotalea, for which the name Actinotalea lenta sp. nov is proposed. The type strain is SYSU T00b441T (=GDMCC 1.3827T=KCTC 49943T).

Actinomycetota have been widely described as valuable sources for the acquisition of secondary metabolites. Most microbial metabolites are produced via metabolic pathways encoded by biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs). Although many secondary metabolites are not essential for the survival of bacteria, they play an important role in their adaptation and interactions within microbial communities. This is how bacteria isolated from extreme environments such as Antarctica could facilitate the discovery of new BGCs with biotechnological potential. This study aimed to isolate rare Actinomycetota strains from Antarctic soil and sediment samples and identify their metabolic potential based on genome mining and exploration of biosynthetic gene clusters. To this end, the strains were sequenced using Illumina and Oxford Nanopore Technologies platforms. The assemblies were annotated and subjected to phylogenetic analysis. Finally, the BGCs present in each genome were identified using the antiSMASH tool, and the biosynthetic diversity of the Micrococcaceae family was evaluated. Taxonomic annotation revealed that seven strains were new and two were previously reported in the NCBI database. Additionally, BGCs encoding type III polyketide synthases (T3PKS), beta-lactones, siderophores, and non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) have been identified, among others. In addition, the sequence similarity network showed a predominant type of BGCs in the family Micrococcaceae, and some genera were distinctly grouped. The BGCs identified in the isolated strains could be associated with applications such as antimicrobials, anticancer agents, and plant growth promoters, among others, positioning them as excellent candidates for future biotechnological applications and innovations. KEY POINTS: ⢠Novel Antarctic rare Actinomycetota strains were isolated from soil and sediments ⢠Genome-based taxonomic affiliation revealed seven potentially novel species ⢠Genome mining showed metabolic potential for novel natural products.

This brief review aims to draw attention to the biotechnological potential of actinomycetes. Their main uses as sources of antibiotics and in agriculture would be enough not to neglect them; however, as we will see, their biotechnological application is much broader. Far from intending to exhaust this issue, we present a short survey of the research involving actinomycetes and their applications published in the last 23 years. We highlight a perspective for the discovery of new active ingredients or new applications for the known metabolites of these microorganisms that, for approximately 80 years, since the discovery of streptomycin, have been the main source of antibiotics. Based on the collected data, we organize the text to show how the cosmopolitanism of actinomycetes and the evolutionary biotic and abiotic ecological relationships of actinomycetes translate into the expression of metabolites in the environment and the richness of biosynthetic gene clusters, many of which remain silenced in traditional laboratory cultures. We also present the main strategies used in the twenty-first century to promote the expression of these silenced genes and obtain new secondary metabolites from known or new strains. Many of these metabolites have biological activities relevant to medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology industries, including candidates for new drugs or drug models against infectious and non-infectious diseases. Below, we present significant examples of the antimicrobial spectrum of actinomycetes, which is the most commonly investigated and best known, as well as their non-antimicrobial spectrum, which is becoming better known and increasingly explored.

Strain MP-1014T, an obligate halophilic actinobacterium, was isolated from the mangrove soil of Thandavarayancholanganpettai, Tamil Nadu, India. A polyphasic approach was utilized to explore its phylogenetic position completely. The isolate was Gram-positive, filamentous, non-motile, and coccoid in older cultures. Ideal growth conditions were seen at 30 °C and pH 7.0, with 5% NaCl (W/V), and the DNA G + C content was 73.3%. The phylogenic analysis of this strain based upon 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed 97-99.8% similarity to the recognized species of the genus Isoptericola. Strain MP-1014T exhibits the highest similarity to I. sediminis JC619T (99.7%), I. chiayiensis KCTC19740T (98.9%), and subsequently to I. halotolerans KCTC19646T (98.6%), when compared with other members within the Isoptericola genus (< 98%). ANI scores of strain MP-1014T are 86.4%, 84.2%, and 81.5% and dDDH values are 59.7%, 53.6%, and 34.8% with I. sediminis JC619T, I. chiayiensis KCTC19740T and I. halotolerans KCTC19646T respectively. The major polar lipids of the strain MP-1014T were phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphotidylglycerol, two unknown phospholipids, and glycolipids. The predominant respiratory menaquinones were MK9 (H4) and MK9 (H2). The major fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0, anteiso-C17:0, iso-C14:0, C15:0, and C16:0. Also, initial genome analysis of the organism suggests it as a biostimulant for enhancing agriculture in saline environments. Based on phenotypic and genetic distinctiveness, the strain MP-1014 T represents the novel species of the genus Isoptericola assigned Isoptericola haloaureus sp. nov., is addressed by the strain MP-1014 T, given its phenotypic, phylogenetic, and hereditary uniqueness.

A bacterium, designated strain T21T, that is non-motile, rod-shaped, and formed pale white colonies, was isolated from the sludge of a wastewater treatment plant's secondary sedimentation tank in China. Strain T21T could grow at 20-40 °C (optimum growth at 30 °C), pH 3.0-10.0 (optimum growth at pH 5.0) and in the presence of 0-8.0% (w/v) NaCl (optimum growth at 2.0%). Based on phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences and genome sequences, the isolate belongs to the genus Tessaracoccus in the phylum Actinomycetota. It exhibited a close relationship with Tessaracoccus palaemonis J1M15T, Tessaracoccus defluvii LNB-140T, Tessaracoccus flavescens SST-39T, and Tessaracoccus coleopterorum HDW20T. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities are 99.8%, 97.9%, 97.9%, and 97.8%, respectively. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 and C16:0. The main respiratory quinone was MK-9(H4). The polar lipids included phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, glycolipid, and phospholipid. Genome annotation of strain T21T predicted the presence of 2829 genes, of which 2754 are coding proteins and 59 are RNA genes. The genomic DNA G+C content was 69.2%. Based on the results of phylogenetic, phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and genotypic analyses, we propose the name Tessaracoccus lacteus sp. nov. for this novel species within the genus Tessaracoccus. The type strain is T21T (=CCTCC AB 2023031T = KCTC 49936T).

Microbial community responses to environmental change are largely associated with ecological processes; however, the potential for microbes to rapidly evolve and adapt remains relatively unexplored in natural environments. To assess how ecological and evolutionary processes simultaneously alter the genetic diversity of a microbiome, we conducted two concurrent experiments in the leaf litter layer of soil over 18 mo across a climate gradient in Southern California. In the first experiment, we reciprocally transplanted microbial communities from five sites to test whether ecological shifts in ecotypes of the abundant bacterium, Curtobacterium, corresponded to past adaptive differentiation. In the transplanted communities, ecotypes converged toward that of the native communities growing on a common litter substrate. Moreover, these shifts were correlated with community-weighted mean trait values of the Curtobacterium ecotypes, indicating that some of the trait variation among ecotypes could be explained by local adaptation to climate conditions. In the second experiment, we transplanted an isogenic Curtobacterium strain and tracked genomic mutations associated with the sites across the same climate gradient. Using a combination of genomic and metagenomic approaches, we identified a variety of nonrandom, parallel mutations associated with transplantation, including mutations in genes related to nutrient acquisition, stress response, and exopolysaccharide production. Together, the field experiments demonstrate how both demographic shifts of previously adapted ecotypes and contemporary evolution can alter the diversity of a soil microbiome on the same timescale.

This study was designed to recover representative culturable actinomycetes from the Atacama Desert, and to detect their ability to promote plant growth under drought conditions. Environmental samples were taken from three Atacama Desert habitats, namely, from the Aguas Calientes, Lomas Bayas and Yungay core regions. With one exception higher actinomycete counts were obtained when isolation media were inoculated with mineral particles than with corresponding aliquots of serial dilution. Comparative 16S rRNA gene sequencing showed that representative isolates belonged to thirteen genera including putative novel Blastococcus, Kocuria, Micromonospora, Pseudonocardia, Rhodococcus and Streptomyces species. Representative isolates produced indole-3-acetic acid, siderophore and solubilized phosphate as well as displaying an ability to grow under drought conditions. In conclusion, the current findings open up exciting prospects for the promising potential of actinomycetes from the Atacama Desert to be used as bioinoculants to promote plant growth in arid and semi-arid biomes.

Currently, heavy metal-resistant (HMR) marine actinomycetes have attracted much attention worldwide due to their unique capabilities. In this study, 27 marine-derived actinomycetes were isolated from coastal beaches in the Arabian Gulf of Al-Jubail in Saudi Arabia and screened for resistance to 100 mg/L of the heavy metals Cd2+, Cr6+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Pb2+, and Ni2+ using different assay techniques. Six isolates were selected as HMRs, of which two isolates, JJB5 and JJB11, exhibited the highest maximum tolerance concentrations (200- > 300 mg/L). Both isolates were the highest among six-HMR screened for their biodegradation potential of plastics low-density polyethylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl chloride, recording the highest weight loss (15 ± 1.22 - 65 ± 1.2%) in their thin films. They also showed the highest biodegradability of the pesticides acetamiprid, chlordane, hexachlorocyclohexane, indoxacarb and lindane, indicating promising removal capacities (95.70-100%) for acetamiprid and indoxacarb using HPLC analysis. Additionally, the cell-free filtrate (CFF) of both isolates displayed the highest antimicrobial activity among the six-HMR screened against a variety of microbial test strains, recording the highest inhibition zone diameters (13.76 ± 0.66 - 26.0 ± 1.13 mm). GCâMS analyses of the ethyl acetate extract of their CFFs revealed the presence of diverse chemical compounds with a multitude of remarkable biological activities. Based on their spore morphology and wall-chemotype, they were assigned to the nocardioform-actinomycetes. Furthermore, their phenotypic characteristics, together with 16S rRNA gene sequencing (OR121525-OR121526), revealed them as Nocardia harenae JJB5 and Amycolatopsis marina JJB11. Our results suggest that marine HMR actinomycetes are promising candidates for various biotechnological applications.

A Gram-negative, non-motile, aerobic bacterium, named 02-257T, was isolated from Antarctic soil. The cells are surrounded by relatively thin capsules and were catalase-positive and oxidase-negative cocci. Growth of strain 02-257T was observed at 4-35 °C (optimum, 28-30 °C), pH 6.0-8.0 (optimum, pH 6.0) and with 0-1.5% NaCl (optimum, 0â%). Strain 02-257 showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Paraconexibacter algicola Seoho-28T (95.06â%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain 02-257T is a member of a novel species belonging to the clade formed by members of the genus Paraconexibacter in the family Paraconexibacteraceae. The DNA G+C content was 72.9âmol%. Strain 02-257T contained C16â:â0-iso (23.0â%), C18ââ:ââ1 ω9c (13.8â%), C16â:â0 (12.5â%) and C17â:â1 ω9c-iso (10.8â%) as major cellular fatty acids and menaquinone MK-7(H4) was detected as the only isoprenoid quinone. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositole mannoside, phosphatidylinositole dimannoside, unidentified phosphoglycolipid, unidentified aminophospholipid, two unidentified phospholipids, three unidentified aminolipids and six unidentified lipids were the major polar lipids. meso-Diaminopimelic acids were the diagnostic diamino acids in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic data, strain 02-257T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Paraconexibacter, for which the name Paraconexibacter antarcticus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 02-257T (=CCTCC AB 2021030T=KCTC 49619T).

A Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, non-sporulating, yellow-pigmented and rod or cocci-shaped bacterium, designated Arc0846-15T, was isolated from the kelp Laminaria japonica. Strain Arc0846-15T was found to grow at 16-35 °C (optimum, 28 °C), at pH 6.0-9.5 (optimum, 7.0) and in the presence of 0-6â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2â%). Cells were positive for catalase and negative for oxidase activity. Phylogenetic analyses, based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons, revealed that the nearest phylogenetic neighbour strains of strain Arc0846-15T were Ornithinimicrobium murale 01 Gi-040T (96.2â%), Ornithinimicrobium kibberense K22-20T (96.1â%) and Ornithinimicrobium humiphilum HKI 0124T (95.2â%). Based on phylogenomic analysis, the average nucleotide identity values between strain Arc0846-15T and the neighbour strains were 69.8, 69.7 and 69.8â%, respectively; the digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain Arc0846-15T and its three closest neighbour strains were 18.8, 19.1 and 19.3â%, respectively. The predominant menaquinone was MK-8 (H4). The dominant cellular fatty acids were C17â:â1 ω8c, iso-C15â:â0, iso-C16â:â0 and C17â:â0. The polar lipids contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, glycolipid, one unidentified aminolipid and four unidentified lipids. The DNA G+C content of strain Arc0846-15T was 61.6 mol% based on the whole genome sequence. Based on the phylogenetic and phenotypic characteristics, strain Arc0846-15T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Ornithinimicrobium, for which the name Ornithinimicrobium laminariae sp. nov. is proposed, with Arc0846-15T (=KCTC 49655T=MCCC 1K06093T) as the type strain.

Two new marine actinobacteria, designated as J2-1T and J2-2T, were isolated from a coral, Favites pentagona, collected from Rayong Province, Thailand. The taxonomic positions of the two strains were identified based on polyphasic taxonomy. Based on morphological characteristics and chemotaxonomy, strains J2-1T and J2-2T were identified as members of the genus Streptomyces and Kineosporia, respectively. Strains J2-1T and J2-2T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Streptomyces broussonetiae T44T (98.62â%) and Kineosporia babensis VN05A0415T (98.08 %), respectively. Strain J2-1T had chemotaxonomic properties resembling members of the genus Streptomyces. ll-Diaminopimelic acid, glucose and ribose were detected in the whole-cell hydrolysate. Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositolmannoside, unidentified aminolipid and five unidentified phospholipids were detected as the polar lipids. The major cellular fatty acids were C16â:â0 iso, C15â:â0 anteiso, C15â:â0 iso, C16â:â0, C17â:â0 anteiso, C14â:â0 iso and C17â:â0 iso. Strain J2-2T a showed similar cell composition to members of the genus Kineosporia. Both isomers of ll- and meso-diaminopimelic acid were detected in the peptidoglycan. Arabinose, galactose, madurose and xylose were observed in the whole-cell hydrolysate. The polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylinositol mannoside, phosphatidylcholine, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified glycolipid. The major cellular fatty acids were C16â:â0, C18â:â1 ω9c, C18â:â0 10-methyl, tuberculostearic acid, C18â:â0 and C17â:â0. Both strains could be distinguished from their closely related type strains according to their phenotypic characteristics. Comparative genome analysis indicated the delineation of two novel species based on digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity values, which were below 70 and 95â%, respectively. The names proposed are Streptomyces corallincola sp. nov. (J2-1T=TBRC 13503T=NBRC 115066T) and Kineosporia corallincola sp. nov. (J2-2T=TBRC 13504T=NBRC 114885T).

A novel actinobacterium, designated strain CFH 90414T, was isolated from sediment sampled at a saline lake in Yuncheng, Shanxi, PR China. The taxonomic position of the strain was investigated by using a polyphasic approach. Cells of strain CFH 90414T were Gram-reaction-positive, aerobic and non-motile. Growth occured at 4-40 °C, pH 5.0-9.0 and in the presence of up to 0-3.0â% (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain CFH 90414T was a member of the genus Agromyces. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity analysis indicated that strain CFH 90414T was most closely related to Agromyces italicus JCM 14320T (98.07â%) and Agromyces lapidis JCM 14321T (97.18â%). The whole genome of CFH 90414T was 3.64 Mb, and showed a G+C content of 71.5 mol%. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) values and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) values between CFH 90414T and the other species of the genus Agromyces were found to be low (ANI <78.99â% and dDDH <22.9â%). The whole-cell sugars were rhamnose, mannose, ribose, glucose and galactose. The isolate contained l-2,4-diaminobutyric acid, d-alanine, d-glutamic acid and glycine in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The predominant menaquinone was MK-12. The major cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15â:â0, anteiso-C17â:â0 and iso-C16â:â0. The polar lipid profile contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and an unidentiï¬ed glycolipid. On the basis of phenotypic, genotypic and phylogenetic data, strain CFH 90414T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Agromyces, for which the name Agromyces agglutinans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CFH 90414T (=DSM 105966T=KCTC 49062T).

The bacterial genus Dietzia is widely distributed in various environments. The genomes of 26 diverse strains of Dietzia, including almost all the type strains, were analysed in this study. This analysis revealed a lipid metabolism gene richness, which could explain the ability of Dietzia to live in oil related environments. The pan-genome consists of 83,976 genes assigned into 10,327 gene families, 792 of which are shared by all the genomes of Dietzia. Mathematical extrapolation of the data suggests that the Dietzia pan-genome is open. Both gene duplication and gene loss contributed to the open pan-genome, while horizontal gene transfer was limited. Dietzia strains primarily gained their diverse metabolic capacity through more ancient gene duplications. Phylogenetic analysis of Dietzia isolated from aquatic and terrestrial environments showed two distinct clades from the same ancestor. The genome sizes of Dietzia strains from aquatic environments were significantly larger than those from terrestrial environments, which was mainly due to the occurrence of more gene loss events during the evolutionary progress of the strains from terrestrial environments. The evolutionary history of Dietzia was tightly coupled to environmental conditions, and iron concentrations should be one of the key factors shaping the genomes of the Dietzia lineages.

The bacterium Gordonia sp. SCSIO19801, which could effectively utilize phenanthrene as the sole carbon source, was isolated from the seawater of the South China Sea. Its biodegradation characteristics, whole genome sequence, and biodegradation pathway were investigated. The phenanthrene biodegradation process of Gordonia sp. SCSIO19801 was estimated to be a first-order kinetic model with a k value of 0.26/day. Based on the identification of metabolites, utilization of probable intermediates, and genomics analysis of related genes, the degradation of phenanthrene by Gordonia sp. SCSIO19801 was proposed to occur via the salicylate metabolic pathway. This is the first report of a phenanthrene degradation pathway in Gordonia species. In addition, the Gordonia sp. SCSIO19801 could use other aromatic compounds as the sole source of carbon and energy. These characteristics indicate that Gordonia sp. SCSIO19801 can be utilized for developing effective methods for the biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons in marine environments.

BACKGROUND: Computational approaches are often used to predict regulatory RNAs in bacteria, but their success is limited to RNAs that are highly conserved across phyla, in sequence and structure. The ANTAR regulatory system consists of a family of RNAs (the ANTAR-target RNAs) that selectively recruit ANTAR proteins. This protein-RNA complex together regulates genes at the level of translation or transcriptional elongation. Despite the widespread distribution of ANTAR proteins in bacteria, their target RNAs haven't been identified in certain bacterial phyla such as actinobacteria. RESULTS: Here, by using a computational search model that is tuned to actinobacterial genomes, we comprehensively identify ANTAR-target RNAs in actinobacteria. These RNA motifs lie in select transcripts, often overlapping with the ribosome binding site or start codon, to regulate translation. Transcripts harboring ANTAR-target RNAs majorly encode proteins involved in the transport and metabolism of cellular metabolites like sugars, amino acids and ions; or encode transcription factors that in turn regulate diverse genes. CONCLUSION: In this report, we substantially diversify and expand the family of ANTAR RNAs across bacteria. These findings now provide a starting point to investigate the actinobacterial processes that are regulated by ANTAR.
