Methylomonas methanica str. R-45371

Methylomonas methanica str. R-45371 is an aerobic, mesophilic bacterium that thrives in marine-soil environments, exhibiting a free-living lifestyle. This strain is characterized by a single replicon and has a genome accession number of LUUH00000000.1, indicating its sequenced genomic data is available for further study. As an aerobic organism, M. methanica str. R-45371 utilizes oxygen for its metabolic processes, which is essential for its survival and growth in its natural habitat. The mesophilic nature of this bacterium suggests it optimally functions within moderate temperature ranges, aligning with the typical conditions found in marine soil ecosystems. The fact that M. methanica str. R-45371 is free-living indicates its ability to thrive independently of symbiotic relationships, potentially allowing it to play a significant role in the biogeochemical cycling of carbon and other nutrients in its environment. This characteristic may enhance our understanding of microbial contributions to soil health and ecosystem dynamics in marine settings.
