RESUMO
Dopamine receptors, including D1- and D2-like receptors, are important therapeutic targets in a variety of neurological syndromes, as well as cardiovascular and kidney diseases. Here, we present five cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the dopamine D1 receptor (DRD1) coupled to Gs heterotrimer in complex with three catechol-based agonists, a non-catechol agonist, and a positive allosteric modulator for endogenous dopamine. These structures revealed that a polar interaction network is essential for catecholamine-like agonist recognition, whereas specific motifs in the extended binding pocket were responsible for discriminating D1- from D2-like receptors. Moreover, allosteric binding at a distinct inner surface pocket improved the activity of DRD1 by stabilizing endogenous dopamine interaction at the orthosteric site. DRD1-Gs interface revealed key features that serve as determinants for G protein coupling. Together, our study provides a structural understanding of the ligand recognition, allosteric regulation, and G protein coupling mechanisms of DRD1.

Adhesion G-protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs) are important for organogenesis, neurodevelopment, reproduction and other processes1-6. Many aGPCRs are activated by a conserved internal (tethered) agonist sequence known as the Stachel sequence7-12. Here, we report the cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of two aGPCRs in complex with Gs: GPR133 and GPR114. The structures indicate that the Stachel sequences of both receptors assume an α-helical-bulge-ß-sheet structure and insert into a binding site formed by the transmembrane domain (TMD). A hydrophobic interaction motif (HIM) within the Stachel sequence mediates most of the intramolecular interactions with the TMD. Combined with the cryo-EM structures, biochemical characterization of the HIM motif provides insight into the cross-reactivity and selectivity of the Stachel sequences. Two interconnected mechanisms, the sensing of Stachel sequences by the conserved 'toggle switch' W6.53 and the constitution of a hydrogen-bond network formed by Q7.49/Y7.49 and the P6.47/V6.47φφG6.50 motif (φ indicates a hydrophobic residue), are important in Stachel sequence-mediated receptor activation and Gs coupling. Notably, this network stabilizes kink formation in TM helices 6 and 7 (TM6 and TM7, respectively). A common Gs-binding interface is observed between the two aGPCRs, and GPR114 has an extended TM7 that forms unique interactions with Gs. Our structures reveal the detailed mechanisms of aGPCR activation by Stachel sequences and their Gs coupling.

Mounting evidence suggests a strong association between tumor immunity and epigenetic regulation. The histone-lysine N-methyltransferase 2 (KMT2) family plays a crucial role in the methylation of histone H3 at lysine 4. By influencing chromatin structure and DNA accessibility, this modification serves as a key regulator of tumor progression and immune tolerance across various tumors. These findings highlight the potential significance of the KMT2 family in determining response to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy, which warrants further exploration. In this study, we integrated four ICI-treated cohorts (n = 2069) across 10 cancer types and The Cancer Genome Atlas pan-cancer cohort and conducted a comprehensive clinical and bioinformatic analysis. Our study indicated that patients with KMT2 family gene mutations benefited more from ICI therapy in terms of overall survival (P < 0.001, hazard ratio [HR] = 0.733 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.632-0.850]), progression-free survival (P = 0.002, HR = 0.669 [95% CI: 0.518-0.864]), durable clinical benefit (P < 0.001, 54.1% vs. 32.6%), and objective response rate (P < 0.001, 40.6% vs. 22.0%). Through a comprehensive analysis of the tumor microenvironment across different KMT2 mutation statuses, we observed that tumors harboring the KMT2 mutation exhibited enhanced immunogenicity, increased infiltration of immune cells, and higher levels of immune cell cytotoxicity, suggesting a propensity towards a "hot tumor" phenotype. Therefore, our study indicates a potential association between KMT2 mutations and a more favorable response to ICI therapy and implicates different tumor microenvironments associated with ICI therapy response.

BACKGROUND: Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors (aGPCRs), a distinctive subset of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily, play crucial roles in various physiological and pathological processes, with implications in tumor development. Despite the global prevalence of breast cancer (BRCA), specific aGPCRs as potential drug targets or biomarkers remain underexplored. METHODS: UALCAN, GEPIA, Kaplan-Meier Plotter, MethSurv, cBiopportal, String, GeneMANIA, DAVID, Timer, Metascape, and qPCR were applied in this work. RESULTS: Our analysis revealed significantly increased transcriptional levels of ADGRB2, ADGRC1, ADGRC2, ADGRC3, ADGRE1, ADGRF2, ADGRF4, and ADGRL1 in BRCA primary tumors. Further analysis indicated a significant correlation between the expressions of certain aGPCRs and the pathological stage of BRCA. High expression of ADGRA1, ADGRF2, ADGRF4, ADGRG1, ADGRG2, ADGRG4, ADGRG6, and ADGRG7 was significantly correlated with poor overall survival (OS) in BRCA patients. Additionally, high expression of ADGRF2 and ADGRF4 indicated inferior recurrence-free survival (RFS) in BRCA patients. The RT-qPCR experiments also confirmed that the mRNA levels of ADGRF2 and ADGRF4 were higher in BRCA cells and tissues. Functional analysis highlighted the diverse roles of aGPCRs, encompassing GPCR signaling and metabolic energy reserves. Moreover, aGPCRs may exert influence or actively participate in the development of BRCA through their impact on immune status. CONCLUSION: aGPCRs, particularly ADGRF2 and ADGRF4, hold promise as immunotherapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers in BRCA.

Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors are elusive in terms of their structural information and ligands. Here, we solved the cryogenic-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of apo-ADGRG2, an essential membrane receptor for maintaining male fertility, in complex with a Gs trimer. Whereas the formations of two kinks were determinants of the active state, identification of a potential ligand-binding pocket in ADGRG2 facilitated the screening and identification of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate and deoxycorticosterone as potential ligands of ADGRG2. The cryo-EM structures of DHEA-ADGRG2-Gs provided interaction details for DHEA within the seven transmembrane domains of ADGRG2. Collectively, our data provide a structural basis for the activation and signaling of ADGRG2, as well as characterization of steroid hormones as ADGRG2 ligands, which might be used as useful tools for further functional studies of the orphan ADGRG2.

A novel bacterial strain, designated WL0086T, was isolated from a marine sediment sample collected in Lianyungang city, Jiangsu province, PR China. This strain showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Geminisphaera colitermitum TAV2T (92.7â%) of the family Opitutaceae, and all the unclassified cultured and uncultured isolates with similarities >95â% were from marine environments. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile cocci with a size of 0.6-0.8 µm in diameter. Strain WL0086T was positive for both oxidase and catalase, and grew at 20-37â°C (optimum, 28â°C), with 1.5-11.0â% NaCl (w/v; optimum, 2.5-4.0â%) and at pH 5.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0). The major polar lipid profile of strain WL0086T consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidylcholine. The major isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone-7 and the predominant fatty acids were iso-C14â:â0, anteiso-C15â:â0, C16â:â0 and C16â:â1 ω9c. The complete genome consisted of a chromosome with 6â109â182 bp. The G+C content of genomic DNA was 64.0%. Results of phylogenomic analysis based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence and the whole genome suggested that strain WL0086T formed a distinct clade closely neighbouring the members of the family Opitutaceae. On the basis of phylogenetic, phenotypic, and chemotaxonomic evidences, strain WL0086T should represent a novel genus of the family Opitutaceae, for which the name Actomonas aquatica gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is WL0086T (=MCCC 1K05844T=JCM 34677T=GDMCC 1.2411T).

Two novel Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped bacteria, designated as WL0004T and XHP0148T, were isolated from seawater samples collected from the coastal areas of Nantong and Lianyungang, PR China, respectively. Both strains were found to grow at 10-42â°C (optimum, 37â°C) and with 2.0-5.0â% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 3.0â%). Strain WL0004T grew at pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0-8.0), while XHP0148T grew at pH 6.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 7.0-8.0). The major cellular fatty acids (>10â%) of both strains included summed feature 8 (C18â:â1 ω6c and/or C18â:â1 ω7c). In addition, strain WL0004T contained 11-methyl C18â:â1 ω7c and strain XHP0148T contained C12â:â0 3-OH. The respiratory quinone of both strains was ubiquinone-10. The G+C content of genomic DNA of strains WL0004T and XHP0148T were 62.5 and 63.0âmol%, respectively. Strains WL0004T and XHP0148T showed the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Ruegeria pomeroyi DSS-3T (99.4 and 99.0â%, respectively), and the 16S rRNA gene-based phylogenetic analysis indicated that the two strains were closely related to members of the genus Ruegeria. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values among the two strains and type strains of the genus Ruegeria were all below 95 and 70â%, respectively, and the phylogenetic tree reconstructed from the bac120 gene set indicated that the two strains are distinct from each other and the members of the genus Ruegeria. Based on this phenotypic and genotypic characterization, strains WL0004T (=MCCC 1K07523T=JCM 35565T=GDMCC 1.3083T) and XHP0148T (=MCCC 1K07543T=JCM 35569T=GDMCC 1.3089T) should be recognized as representing two novel species of the genus Ruegeria and the names Ruegeria marisflavi sp. nov. and Ruegeria aquimaris sp. nov. are proposed, respectively.

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a neurovascular complication of diabetes, driven by an intricate network of cellular and molecular mechanisms. This study sought to explore the mechanisms by investigating the role of 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (12-HETE), its receptor GPR31, and microRNA (miR-29) in the context of DR, specifically focusing on their impact on Müller glial cells. We found that 12-HETE activates Müller cells (MCs), elevates glutamate production, and induces inflammatory and oxidative responses, all of which are instrumental in DR progression. The expression of GPR31, the receptor for 12-HETE, was prominently found in the retina, especially in MCs and retinal ganglion cells, and was upregulated in diabetes. Interestingly, miR29 showed potential as a protective agent, mitigating the harmful effects of 12-HETE by attenuating inflammation and oxidative stress, and restoring the expression of pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF). Our results underline the central role of 12-HETE in DR progression through activation of a neurovascular toxic pathway in MCs and illuminate the protective capabilities of miR-29, highlighting both as promising therapeutic targets for the management of DR.

AIMS: This study aimed to characterize the first complete genome of Corynebacterium parakroppenstedtii and clarify the evolutionary relationship in the Corynebacterium kroppenstedtii complex (CKC) by using comparative genomics analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS: The genome of isolate yu01 from a breast specimen was sequenced, and 35 CKC genomes were collected. Analysis of 16S rRNA, rpoB, and fusA suggested ambiguous identification, whereas ANI analysis assigned isolate yu01 as Coryne. parakroppenstedtii. The fourth genospecies "Corynebacterium aliikroppenstedtii" was identified in CKC. Comparative genomics analysis suggested that the genomic arrangement in CKC was highly conserved. A total of 43 potential virulence genes and 79 species-specific genes were detected. Most genome-based phylogenetic analysis were incapable of resolving the interspecific evolutionary relationships among CKCs. A total of 20 core genes were found to be distinguishable in CKC. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggested the limited divergence and unavailability of normal single gene-based identification in CKC and questioned the precise species of strains associated with mastitis, identified as Coryne. kroppenstedtii in previous studies. The 20 genes showed potential to enhance the methods for the identification and epidemiological investigation of CKC.

Two novel Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, and non-motile strains, designated FZY0004T and YYF002T, were isolated from an agar-degrading co-culture, which was obtained from seawater of the intertidal zone of Yancheng City, the Yellow Sea of China. Strain FZY0004T optimally grew at 28 °C, pH 7.0, and 2-6% NaCl, while strain YYF002T optimally grew at 28 °C, pH 7.5, and 2-4% NaCl. Strain FZY0004T possessed Q-9 as the major respiratory quinone, and its major fatty acids (> 10%) were summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c), C16:0, and summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω7c/C16:1 ω6c). The polar lipids identified in strain FZY0004T were phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), and several unidentified phospholipids (PL) and lipids (L). On the other hand, strain YYF002T had MK-6 as the predominant respiratory quinone and its major fatty acids consisted of iso-C15:0, iso-C15:1 G, and iso-C15:0 3-OH. The polar lipids identified in strain YYF002T were aminolipid (AL), PE, and several unidentified lipids. Strain FZY0004T shared 99.5% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and 90.1% average nucleotide identity (ANI) with T. povalilytica Zumi 95T, and strain YYF002T shared 99.2% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity and 88.2% ANI with W. poriferorum JCM 12885T. The genomic DNA G + C contents of strains FZY0004T and YYF002T were 54.5% and 33.5%, respectively. The phylogenetic, phenotypic, and physiological characteristics permitted the distinction of the two strains from their neighbors, and we thus propose the names Thalassospira aquimaris sp. nov. (type strain FZY0004T = JCM 35895T = MCCC 1K08380T) and Winogradskyella marincola sp. nov. (type strain YYF002T = JCM 35950T = MCCC 1K08382T).

During our studies on the microorganism diversity from air of manufacturing shop in a pharmaceutical factory in Shandong province, China, a Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, cocci-shaped bacterium, designated LY-0111T, was isolated from a settling dish. Strain LY-0111T grew at temperature of 10-42 °C (optimum 35 °C), pH of 5.0-10.0 (optimum pH 7.0) and NaCl concentration of 1-12% (optimum 0.5-3%, w/v). Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the strain shared the highest sequence similarities to Nesterenkonia halophila YIM 70179T (96.2%), and was placed within the radiation of Nesterenkonia species in the phylogenetic trees. The genome of the isolate was sequenced, which comprised 2,931,270 bp with G + C content of 66.5%. A supermatrix tree based on the gene set bac120 indicated that LY-0111T was close related to Nesterenkonia xinjiangensis YIM 70097T (16S rRNA gene sequence similarity 95.3%). Chemotaxonomic analysis indicated that the main respiratory quinones were MK-7, MK-8, and MK-9, the predominant cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15:0 and iso-C15:0, and the major polar lipids consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. According to the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic features, strain LY-0111T is considered to represent a novel species, for which the name Nesterenkonia aerolata sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LY-0111T (= JCM 36375T = GDMCC 1.3945T). In addition, Nesterenkonia jeotgali was proposed as a later synonym of Nesterenkonia sandarakina, according to the ANI (96.8%) and dDDH (72.9%) analysis between them.

BACKGROUND: Genome-scale phylogenetic analysis based on core gene sets is routinely used in microbiological research. However, the techniques are still not approachable for individuals with little bioinformatics experience. Here, we present EasyCGTree, a user-friendly and cross-platform pipeline to reconstruct genome-scale maximum-likehood (ML) phylogenetic tree using supermatrix (SM) and supertree (ST) approaches. RESULTS: EasyCGTree was implemented in Perl programming languages and was built using a collection of published reputable programs. All the programs were precompiled as standalone executable files and contained in the EasyCGTree package. It can run after installing Perl language environment. Several profile hidden Markov models (HMMs) of core gene sets were prepared in advance to construct a profile HMM database (PHD) that was enclosed in the package and available for homolog searching. Customized gene sets can also be used to build profile HMM and added to the PHD via EasyCGTree. Taking 43 genomes of the genus Paracoccus as the testing data set, consensus (a variant of the typical SM), SM, and ST trees were inferred via EasyCGTree successfully, and the SM trees were compared with those inferred via the pipelines UBCG and bcgTree, using the metrics of cophenetic correlation coefficients (CCC) and Robinson-Foulds distance (topological distance). The results suggested that EasyCGTree can infer SM trees with nearly identical topology (distance < 0.1) and accuracy (CCC > 0.99) to those of trees inferred with the two pipelines. CONCLUSIONS: EasyCGTree is an all-in-one automatic pipeline from input data to phylogenomic tree with guaranteed accuracy, and is much easier to install and use than the reference pipelines. In addition, ST is implemented in EasyCGTree conveniently and can be used to explore prokaryotic evolutionary signals from a different perspective. The EasyCGTree version 4 is freely available for Linux and Windows users at Github ( https://github.com/zdf1987/EasyCGTree4 ).

The O-carbamoyltransferase VtdB catalyzes the carbamoylation of venturicidin B, which is essential for the biosynthesis of the antibiotic venturicidin A. Here, the crystal structures of VtdB and VtdB in complex with the intermediate carbamoyladenylate (VtdBCAO) were determined at resolutions of 2.99 Å and 2.90 Å, respectively. The structures resemble the conserved YrdC-like and specific Kae1-like domains. A magnesium ion and the intermediate carbamoyladenylate were also observed in the Kae1-like domain of VtdB. The structure of VtdBCAO in complex with the substrate venturicidin B was modeled by a molecular docking method to better understand the substrate binding mode, revealing a novel venturicidin B binding pocket.

Growth occurred at 20-37 â (optimum, 28 â), pH 5.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0-8.0), and with 0-7.0% NaCl (optimum, 2.0-3.0%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain XHP0099T was related to members of the genus Paracoccus and shared the highest sequence similarity with "P. siganidrum" M26 (98.2%), followed by P. alkanivorans 4-2 T (97.6%) and P. alkenifer DSM 11593 T (97.4%). The average nucleotide identity, amino acid identity, and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values of strain XHP0099T against related members in the genus Paracoccus were below the cut-off points proposed for the delineation of a novel species. The major cellular fatty acids (> 10%) were summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c/C18:1 ω6c), and C18:0. The major isoprenoid quinone was Q-10 and the polar lipids contained diphosphatidylglycerol (DPG), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylcholine (PC), aminolipid (AL) and unidentified polar lipids (L). The G + C content of the genomic DNA of strain XHP0099T was 66.0%. Genomic analysis suggested that strain XHP0099T harbored gene clusters for formaldehyde and the XoxF-type methanol oxidation and type 1 Calvin cycle, which could confer the methylotrophy pathway. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic, biochemical and chemotaxonomic analysis, strain XHP0099T represents a novel species of the genus Paracoccus, for which the name Paracoccus marinaquae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XHP0099T (= JCM 34661 T = GDMCC 1.2414 T = MCCC 1K05846T).

A Gram-stain-negative, yellow-pigmented, non-motile, rod-shaped, catalase-positive, strictly aerobic marine bacterium, designated XHP0103T, was isolated from seawater collected from the southern Yellow Sea, PR China (34° 45' 53â³ N 119° 25' 30â³ E). Strain XHP0103T grew optimally at 28â°C, pH 7.5 and in 1.0-3.0â% (w/v) sea salt. MK-6 was the major respiratory quinone. The major cellular fatty acids (>10%) were iso-C15â:â0, iso-C15â:â1 G and iso-C17â:â0 3-OH. The polar lipid profile contained phosphatidylethanolamine, an unidentified aminolipid, an unidentified glycolipid and an unidentified lipid. Results of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain XHP0103T displayed highest sequence similarity to Aestuariibaculum marinum IP7T (94.1â%). However, the phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences suggested that strain XHP0103T clustered with Tamlana crocina HST1-43T (93.4â% sequence similarity) and Aestuariivivens insulae AH-MY3T (93.5â%). Genome sequencing revealed that strain XHP0103T comprised 3â134â388 bp with 2770 protein-coding genes, and the DNA G+C content was 35.5 %. The average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain XHP0103T and T. crocina HST1-43T were 73.6 and 17.3â%, respectively. Based on phylogenetic, phenotypic, genomic and chemotaxonomic evidence, strain XHP0103T represents a novel genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae, for which the name Marixanthotalea marina gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is XHP0103T (=MCCC 1K06060T=JCM 34682T).

A Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped strain, designated LJY008T, was isolated from the intestinal of Eriocheir sinensis in Pukou base of Jiangsu Institute of Freshwater Fisheries. Strain LJY008T could grow at 4-37 â (optimum, 30 â), pH 6.0-8.0 (optimum, pH 7.0), and with 1.0-6.0% NaCl (w/v; optimum, 1.0%). Strain LJY008T shared highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with Jinshanibacter zhutongyuii CF-458T (99.3%), followed by J. allomyrinae BWR-B9T (99.2%), Insectihabitans xujianqingii CF-1111T (97.3%), and Limnobaculum parvum HYN0051T (96.7%). The major polar lipids include phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, and diphosphatidylglycerol. The only respiratory quinone was Q8, and the main fatty acids (> 10%) were C16:0, summed feature 3 (C16:1ω7c/C16:1ω6c), summed feature 8 (C18:1ω7c), and C14:0. The genome-based phylogenies showed that strain LJY008T was closely associated with members of the genus Jinshanibacter, Insectihabitans, and Limnobaculum. The average nucleotide identities and average amino acid identities (AAI) among strain LJY008T and closely related neighbours were all below 95%, and the digital DNA-DNA hybridization values among them were all below 36%. The genomic DNA G + C content of strain LJY008T was 46.1%. Based on the phenotypic, phylogenetic, biochemical and chemotaxonomic analysis, strain LJY008T represents a novel species of the genus Limnobaculum, for which the name Limnobaculum eriocheiris sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LJY008T (= JCM 34675T = GDMCC 1.2436T = MCCC 1K06016T). In addition, the genera Jinshanibacter and Insectihabitans were reclassified as Limnobaculum, because there was no significant genome-scale divergence or diagnosable difference on phenotypic and chemotaxonomic traits, such as strains of Jinshanibacter and Insectihabitans sharing AAI values of 93.88-94.96%.

A novel Gram-staining-negative, aerobic and rod-shaped bacterium, designated WL0058T, was isolated from coastal sediment sample collected in Nantong city, Jiangsu province of China (120° 51' 13â³ E, 32° 6' 26â³ N) in October 2020. Strain WL0058T was found to grow at 4-37 °C (optimum, 28 °C) with 1.5-4.0% NaCl (optimum, 4.0%) and displayed alkaliphilic growth with the pH range of pH 6.0-10.0 (optimum, pH 6.0). Phylogenetic trees constructed based on 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain WL0058T is a member of the family Rhizobiaceae, shared the highest similarity with "Hoeflea prorocentri" CCTCC AB 2016294T (97.7%) and constituted a sub-cluster within the family with it, while the similarity with others in the family Rhizobiaceae was lower than 97.0%. The G + C content of genomic DNA was 59.5 mol%. Polar lipids profile of strain WL0058T included phosphatidylcholine (PC), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and glycolipid (GL), phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine (PME) and two unidentified polar lipids (L). The major isoprenoid quinone was determined to be Q-10 and the major fatty acids were C16:0, C18:0, summed features 4 (iso-C17:1 and/or anteiso-C17:1), and summed features 8 (C18:1ω6c and/or C18:1ω7c). As inferred from the morphology, physiology, and biochemical analysis, genotypic characteristics, and the phylogenetic trees, strain WL0058T ought to be recognized as a novel genus in the family Rhizobiaceae, for which the name Flavimaribacter sediminis gen. nov., sp. nov. The type strain of Flavimaribacter sediminis gen. nov., sp. nov. is WL0058T (= MCCC 1K06063T = JCM 34659T = GDMCC 1.2448T).

A Gram-staining-positive, non-motile, aerobic, spherical actinobacterium, designated WL0053T, was isolated from the coastal sediment of Nantong City, Jiangsu Province, China. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain WL0053T exhibited the highest similarities to Nocardioides mesophilus MSL-22T (98.0%), N. massiliensis GD12T (97.8%), Marmoricola bigeumensis MSL-05T (97.6%), and N. jensenii DSM 20641T (97.3%). The polyphasic taxonomic approach was used for the identification of strain WL0053T. This strain formed white, round, and smooth colonies and grew in the presence of 0-18% (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 0-4.0%), at pH 6.0-9.0 (optimum, pH 7.0) and at 20-37 °C (optimum, 28 °C). The main cellular fatty acids comprised of C17:1 ω8c, C18:1 ω9c, and iso-C16:0. The genomic DNA G + C content was 71.9%. The predominant quinone was MK-8(H4), and the major polar lipid consisted of phosphatidylcholine, glycolipid, phosphatidylethanolamine, and two unidentified phospholipids. Phylogenetic trees of 16S rRNA gene and bac120 gene set indicted that strain WL0053T was closely related to the species N. iriomotensis and N. mesophilus, while these two species clustered in a separate clade together with M. caldifontis YIM 730233T in the bac120 tree. Combined with the analysis of average nucleotide identity (ANI), average amino acid identity (AAI), and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH), it can be considered that the strain WL0053T is a new member of the genus Nocardioides and is proposed to be named as Nocardioides jiangsuensis sp. nov.. The type strain is WL0053T (=MCCC 1K05897T=JCM 34671T=GDMCC 4.192T). Furthermore, based on the fact that the genera Nocardioides and Marmoricola both appeared polyphyletic with no significant difference on phenotypic and chemotaxonomic traits, we proposed to reclassify the genus Marmoricola as Nocardioides.

A Gram-stain-negative, non-motile and aerobic bacterium, designated HHU G3-2T, was isolated from surface water of the Yellow Sea, PR China. Strain HHU G3-2T was positive for oxidase activity and negative for catalase. Optimal growth occurred at 28 °C (range, 20-37 °C), pH 7.0 (range, pH 6.0-9.0) and in the presence of 2-5 % (w/v) NaCl (range, 1-7%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and 120 ubiquitous single-copy protein-coding genes indicated that strain HHU G3-2T formed a distinct phylogenetic lineage with Aestuariicella hydrocarbonica JCM 30134T, sharing a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 98.05%. Average nucleotide identity and digital DNA-DNA hybridization values between strain HHU G3-2T and A. hydrocarbonica JCM 30134T were 75.74 and 17.80%, respectively, which were below the threshold values of 95-96 and 70 %, respectively. The DNA G+C content of the genomic DNA was 51.17 mol%. The major fatty acids (>10â%) were C17 : 1 ω8c (19.8â%), summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c/C16 : 1 ω6c; 15.9â%), summed feature 8 (C18 : 1 ω7c/C18 : 1 ω6c; 13.8â%) and C17 : 0 (10.3â%). The predominant isoprenoid quinone was ubiquinone-8. The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylglycerol. Based on the polyphasic taxonomic data, strain HHU G3-2T represents a novel species of the genus Aestuariicella, for which the name Aestuariicella albida sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HHU G3-2T (=MCCC 1K04224T=JCM 34652T=GDMCC 1.2418T=CGMCC 1.17397T). In addition, we proposed the genus Aestuariicella as a member of the family Cellvibrionaceae.

Cluster-based framework metal iodides have diverse structures and excellent luminescence properties, and show promising applications in sensing and solid-state lighting. However, the design and synthesis of these materials remain great challenges because excess I- ions introduced into the synthesis systems decrease the condensation degree of M-I units. In this work, a new strategy is developed to control the condensation behavior of Ag-I units, and a new silver-rich cluster-based framework iodide [DabcoAg8I6(SPh)2]n (1) (Dabco = 1,4-diazabicyclo [2.2.2] octane) has been synthesized under solvothermal conditions in the presence of silver thiophenolate (AgSPh)n. Compound 1 features a three-dimensional (3-D) cluster-based framework with a pillared layer structure composed of cationic [Ag8I6]2+ clusters bridged by SPh- and Dabco, and displays low-temperature dual emission and luminescence thermochromism.
