Query: NC_009921:522000 Frankia sp. EAN1pec, complete genome
Lineage: Frankia; Frankia; Frankiaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated at the Kettering Research Laboratory in Ohio, USA by M. Lalonde in 1978. It is resistant to lincomycin, kasugamycin, novobiocin, and, like many actinomycetes, to nalidixic acid. This strain is also resistant to elevated levels of lead, chromate, and arsenate.
Subject: NC_013169:1290000 Kytococcus sedentarius DSM 20547, complete genome
Lineage: Kytococcus sedentarius; Kytococcus; Dermacoccaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Country: USA; Temp: Mesophile; Temp: 28 - 36C; Habitat: Marine, Skin microflora. Strain DSM 20547, the type strain, is a free-living, nonmotile, Gram-positive bacterium, originally isolated from a marine environment in about 1944. It grows as spherical/coccoid and occurs predominantly in tetrads which can be arranged in cubical packets. It is non-encapsulated and does not form endospores, is strictly aerobic and chemoorganotrophic, requires methionine and other amino acids for growth, and grows well in NaCl at concentrations up to 10% (w/v). This organism is a normal commensal of human skin, however has been implicated in pitted keratolysis, pneumonia, and other opportunistic infections.
