Enterobacter bugandensis strain UENF-21GII

Enterobacter bugandensis strain UENF-21GII is a Gram-negative bacterium characterized by its rod-shaped morphology and the presence of flagella, which facilitate motility. This strain exhibits facultative aerobic/anaerobic respiration, allowing it to thrive in varying oxygen conditions. It is classified as mesophilic, with an optimal growth temperature of 37°C, indicating that it is well-suited for growth in moderate temperature environments typical of many human-associated habitats. The genome of Enterobacter bugandensis UENF-21GII consists of a single replicon, which contributes to its genetic stability and adaptability. The strain is cataloged under the accession RDOI00000000.1, providing a reference point for further genomic studies and analysis. From a biological and ecological perspective, the presence of Enterobacter bugandensis in diverse environments, particularly those associated with human activity, may play a role in various ecological interactions. Its ability to grow under different oxygen levels and at a range of temperatures suggests that it could be involved in biogeochemical processes and the cycling of nutrients in its habitat. Understanding the characteristics of this strain can provide insights into its potential applications in biotechnology and environmental microbiology.
