Microbulbifer aggregans strain CCB-MM1

Microbulbifer aggregans strain CCB-MM1 is a Gram-negative, aerobic bacterium characterized by its rod shape and non-motile nature. This strain is classified as mesophilic, with an optimal growth temperature of 29°C, indicating it thrives in moderate temperature conditions. Genetic analysis reveals that it possesses a single replicon, suggesting a streamlined genome organization. The strain CCB-MM1 is part of the Microbulbifer genus, which is known for its role in the degradation of organic matter in marine environments. Given its aerobic requirement, M. aggregans strain CCB-MM1 likely participates in processes that involve the breakdown of complex organic compounds in oxygent-rich environments. This ability to metabolize organic material can contribute to nutrient cycling in its ecological niche, particularly within marine sediments. The accession number for this strain is NZ_CP014143.1, which provides a reference for genomic and taxonomic studies, facilitating further research into its metabolic capabilities and ecological roles. Understanding the characteristics of M. aggregans strain CCB-MM1 can be crucial for insights into microbial diversity and the functioning of ecosystems where such organisms play a pivotal role in organic matter decomposition and nutrient availability.
