Winogradskyella bathintestinalis sp. nov., isolated from the intestine of the deep-sea loosejaw dragonfish, Malacosteus niger
A novel bacterial strain, APC 3343 , was isolated from the intestine of a deep-sea loosejaw dragon fish, , caught at a depth of 1000 m in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean. Cells were aerobic, rod-shaped, yellow/orange-pigmented, non-motile and Gram-negative. Growth of strain APC 3343 was observed at 4-3...

Summary: | A novel bacterial strain, APC 3343
, was isolated from the intestine of a deep-sea loosejaw dragon fish,
, caught at a depth of 1000 m in the Northwest Atlantic Ocean. Cells were aerobic, rod-shaped, yellow/orange-pigmented, non-motile and Gram-negative. Growth of strain APC 3343
was observed at 4-30 °C (optimum, 21-25 °C), pH 5.5-10 (optimum, pH 7-8) and 0.5-8 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum, 2-4 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain APC 3343
was most closely related to members of the genus
, with the most closely related type strains being
Kr9-9
(98.46 % identity),
F081-2
(98.07 %),
CECT 7946
(97.93 %),
KMM 6491
(97.79 %) and
HL2-2
(97.79 %). Major fatty acids (>10 % of total) were iso-C
3-OH, iso-C
, anteiso-C
and iso-C
3-OH. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6 (MK-6). Polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, three unknown aminolipids and eight unknown lipids. The draft genome sequence was 3.8 Mb in length with a G+C content of 33.43 mol%. Based on the phenotypic characteristics and phylogenetic analysis, strain APC 3343
is deemed to be a novel species of the genus
, and for which the name
sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of this species is APC 3343
(=DSM 115832
=NCIMB 15464
