Query: NC_014752:617987 Neisseria lactamica ST-640, complete genome Lineage: Neisseria lactamica; Neisseria; Neisseriaceae; Neisseriales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria General Information: Neisseria lactamica ST-640 was isolated from a nasopharyngeal culture. This organism is a nonpathogenic, commensal, bacterium closely related to the pathogenic Neisseria meningitidis. While commonly isolated from nose and throat cultures of children Neisseria lactamica is only rarely isolated from adults.

General Information: Environment: Host; Temp: Mesophile; Temp: 40C. The bacterium requires phenylacetic and phenylpropionic acids for maximal growth. The organism produces cellulosomes at the cell surface that are multimeric protein complexes that contain scaffolding proteins and degradative enzymes. Understanding the metabolism of plant polysaccharides may enable scientists to improve the productivity of ruminant organisms such as cattle
