- Description and Comparative Genomics of gen. nov., sp. nov., a Novel Aerobic Anoxygenic Phototrophic Bacterial Epibiont Associated with the Green Alga . Nedashkovskaya, Olga Baldaev, Sergey Ivaschenko, Alexander Bystritskaya, Evgenia Zhukova, Natalia Eremeev, Viacheslav Kukhlevskiy, Andrey Kurilenko, Valeria Isaeva, Marina A novel, strictly aerobic, non-motile, and pink-pigmented bacterium, designated 7Alg 153, was isolated from the Pacific green alga . Strain 7Alg 153 was able to grow at 4-32 °C in the presence of 1.5-4% NaCl and hydrolyze L-tyrosine, gelatin, aesculin, Tweens 20, 40, and 80 and urea, as well as produce catalase, oxidase, and nitrate reductase. The novel strain 7Alg 153 showed the highest similarity of 96.75% with H15, followed by MME-075 (96.60%), GS-10 (96.53%), SM1979 (96.45%), and CL-SK44 (96.38%), indicating that it belongs to the family , the order , the class , and the phylum . The respiratory ubiquinone was Q-10. The main polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, two unidentified aminolipids, and one unidentified lipid. The predominant cellular fatty acids (>5%) were C ω7c, C, C, and 11-methyl C ω7c. The 7Alg 153 genome is composed of a single circular chromosome of 3,786,800 bp and two circular plasmids of 53,157 bp and 37,459 bp, respectively. Pan-genome analysis showed that the 7Alg 153 genome contains 33 genus-specific clusters spanning 92 genes. The COG20-annotated singletons were more often related to signal transduction mechanisms, cell membrane biogenesis, transcription, and transport, and the metabolism of amino acids. The complete photosynthetic gene cluster (PGC) for aerobic anoxygenic photosynthesis (AAP) was found on a 53 kb plasmid. Based on the phylogenetic evidence and phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, the novel isolate represents a novel genus and species within the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 7Alg 153 (=KCTC 72606 = KMM 6494).
