| alteromonas addita sp. nov. | on the basis of phenotypic, genotypic characteristics and analysis of 16s rrna gene sequences, a novel species belonging to the genus alteromonas is described. a non-pigmented, motile, gram-negative bacterium designated r10sw13(t) was isolated from sea water samples collected in chazhma bay (sea of japan, pacific ocean). the novel organism mainly grew between 4 degrees c and 37 degrees c, was neutrophilic and slightly halophilic, tolerating up to 10 % nacl. strain r10sw13(t) was haemolytic and w ... | 2005 | 15879234 |
| molecular cloning and functional expression of a new amylosucrase from alteromonas macleodii. | the presence of amylosucrase in 12 alteromonas and pseudoalteromonas strains was examined. two alteromonas species (alteromonas addita kctc 12195 and alteromonas macleodii kctc 2957) possessed genes that had high sequence homology to known amylosucrases. genomic clones containing the asase analogs were obtained from a. addita and a. macleodii, and the deduced amino acid sequences of the corresponding genes (aaas and amas, respectively) revealed that they were highly similar to the asases of neis ... | 2009 | 19584557 |
| alteromonas naphthalenivorans sp. nov., a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium isolated from tidal-flat sediment. | a gram-staining-negative and halotolerant bacterium, designated sn2t, capable of biodegrading polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, was isolated from a tidal flat contaminated with crude oil in korea. cells were strictly aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, motile rods, with a single polar flagellum. growth was observed at 4-37 °c (optimum, 25-30 °c) at ph 6.0-9.0 (optimum, ph 7.0-7.5) and in the presence of 0.5-9.0% (w/v) nacl (optimum, 2.0%). only ubiquinone 8 was detected as the isoprenoid qu ... | 2015 | 26956597 |
| isolation and characterization of an agarase-producing bacterial strain, alteromonas sp. gnum-1, from the west sea, korea. | the agar-degrading bacterium gnum-1 was isolated from the brown algal species sargassum serratifolium, which was obtained from the west sea of korea, by using the selective artificial seawater agar plate. the cells were gram-negative, 0.5-0.6 micrometer wide and 2.0-2.5 micrometer long curved rods with a single polar flagellum, forming nonpigmented, circular, smooth colonies. cells grew at 20 degrees c- 37 degrees c, between ph 5.0 and 9.0, and at 1-10% (w/v) nacl. the dna g+c content of the gnu ... | 2012 | 23221523 |
