Paracoccus isoporae strain DSM 22220

Paracoccus isoporae strain DSM 22220 is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized by its rod-shaped morphology and the presence of flagella, indicating its motility. This strain is aerobic, requiring oxygen for its growth and metabolic processes. It thrives at an optimal temperature of 29°C, placing it within the mesophilic temperature range, which is typically between 20°C and 45°C. In terms of genomic features, Paracoccus isoporae has a single replicon, which is an essential trait for understanding its genetic organization and replication mechanisms. The strain is cataloged under the accession number FNAH00000000.1, providing a reference for its genetic material and facilitating further research. The ecological significance of Paracoccus isoporae may be linked to its aerobic metabolism, allowing it to play a role in nutrient cycling within its environment. As a member of the Paracoccus genus, it may contribute to processes such as nitrogen fixation or the degradation of organic compounds, supporting ecosystem health and function. The strain's adaptability to a mesophilic range suggests it may be found in various terrestrial and aquatic environments that maintain moderate temperatures, further enhancing its potential ecological roles.
