Query: NC_015434:6415555 Verrucosispora maris AB-18-032 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Verrucosispora maris; Verrucosispora; Micromonosporaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Verrucosispora sp. AB-18-032 is a filamentous bacterium belonging in the Micromonosporaceae family of the Actinobacteria. It produces abyssomicin (inhibitor of para-aminobenzoic acid biosynthesis which is an precursor of folic acid) and proximicin (furan-containing peptide with weak antibiotic effect and strong antitumor properties).
Subject: NC_012026:75812 Anaplasma marginale str. Florida, complete genome
Lineage: Anaplasma marginale; Anaplasma; Anaplasmataceae; Rickettsiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Anaplasma marginale str. Florida. was isolated from pooled blood samples from naturally infected cattle in Florida. The Florida strain is virulent and non-tick transmitted. This organism is the causative agent of bovine anaplasmosis and is an obligate intracellular pathogen. Transmission occurs via an arthropod vector (tick) and is a major problem in tropical regions where it causes severe morbidity in cattle populations. The bacterium lives intracellularly within membrane-bound vesicles in the host erythrocyte, a cell type which it specifically targets, resulting in severe anemia for the host organism.
