Jonesia denitrificans 55134

Jonesia denitrificans 55134 is a Gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic bacterium characterized as a chemoorganoheterotroph. This bacterium has a rod-shaped morphology and is non-motile. It thrives optimally at a temperature of 37°C and falls within the mesophilic temperature range. The organism possesses two replicons, which indicates a complex genomic structure. It is classified as free-living, suggesting that it can exist independently in various environments without the need for a host organism. The ability to utilize organic compounds for energy and carbon signifies its role in nutrient cycling within its ecological niche. The presence of two replicons may provide Jonesia denitrificans 55134 with genetic flexibility, which can be advantageous in adapting to different environmental conditions or metabolic processes. The organism's facultative anaerobic nature allows it to survive in both the presence and absence of oxygen, enhancing its ecological versatility. Overall, Jonesia denitrificans 55134 demonstrates significant adaptability as a free-living organism in diverse environments, potentially influencing carbon and nitrogen cycling through its metabolic capabilities. Its specific traits could make it a valuable subject for studies on microbial ecology and biogeochemical processes. Accessions for this strain include LS483423.1 and CP077403.1, which can be referenced for further genomic and biochemical investigations.
