Tatumella ptyseos ATCC 33301

Tatumella ptyseos ATCC 33301 is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized as a facultative anaerobe. This means that it can grow in both the presence and absence of oxygen, which allows it to adapt to varying environmental conditions. The organism has a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genomic structure that may contribute to its adaptability and efficiency in replication. The accession number for T. ptyseos ATCC 33301 is JMPR00000000.1, which serves as a reference for genomic data associated with this strain. This accession provides a basis for further studies and comparisons with other microbial species, facilitating a deeper understanding of its genetic makeup and potential applications. Ecologically, Tatumella ptyseos may play a role in various environments due to its metabolic versatility. As a facultative anaerobe, it can inhabit both oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor environments, which could include soil, water, or even within other organisms. This adaptability may allow T. ptyseos to participate in nutrient cycling and contribute to the microbial diversity of its habitat. Understanding the ecological role of Tatumella ptyseos could provide insights into its interactions within microbial communities and its potential applications in biotechnology or environmental microbiology.
