Query: NC_014644:1532500 Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14019 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Gardnerella vaginalis; Gardnerella; Bifidobacteriaceae; Bifidobacteriales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Gardnerella vaginalis (strain ATCC 14019) is an aerobic, host-associated Gram-positive bacterium isolated from the vaginal tracts of women with symptomatic bacterial vaginosis. The bacterium is the most prevalent sexually transmitted organism and associated with bacterial vaginosis. The bacterium has also been associated with bacteremia, urinary track infections, and neonatal meningitis.
Subject: NC_013169:2147111 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.
