Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Albany strain sg_wb24

Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Albany strain sg_wb24 is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized by its microaerophilic oxygen requirement and spirilla shape. This strain is typically found in host-associated habitats and operates as a chemoorganotroph, utilizing organic compounds as its energy source. It commonly exists in chains or as single cells and possesses flagella, although it lacks mobility. The strain thrives optimally at 37°C, fitting within the mesophilic temperature range. It features a cellular structure with two membranes and contains a single replicon, indicating a simplified genomic architecture. The accession number for this strain is QAUU00000000.1. In terms of its biotic relationships, S. enterica serovar Albany strain sg_wb24 is classified as free-living, which suggests it may have the potential to survive outside of host organisms, although it is primarily associated with hosts. The ecological role of this strain may involve interactions with various environments, contributing to the dynamics of microbial communities associated with animal hosts. Understanding the characteristics of this strain can provide insight into its ecological interactions and potential impact on host health and disease transmission.
