Novosphingobium lindaniclasticum LE124

Novosphingobium lindaniclasticum LE124 is a Gram-negative, aerobic bacterium characterized by its rod shape. This species is non-motile and possesses flagella, although it does not utilize them for movement. It thrives optimally at a temperature of 29°C and is classified as mesophilic, indicating its preference for moderate temperature conditions. N. lindaniclasticum LE124 has a single replicon and is non-spore-forming, which suggests a reliance on vegetative growth for reproduction and survival rather than on spore formation for enduring unfavorable conditions. The accession number for this strain is ATHL00000000.1, which can be used for further research or genetic analysis. From an ecological perspective, the traits of Novosphingobium lindaniclasticum LE124 suggest its potential role in bioremediation processes, particularly in environments where aerobic degradation of organic pollutants is needed. Its ability to thrive at moderate temperatures makes it suitable for various temperate ecosystems, potentially contributing to the degradation of specific compounds in contaminated habitats.
