Lineage: Zobellia galactanivorans; Zobellia; Flavobacteriaceae; Flavobacteriales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria
General Information: Zobellia galactanivorans is a marine bacterium that participates in the carbon cycle as a decomposer of dead algae. This organism produces several potentially commercially important polysaccharidases which are able to degrade agar and carageenan.
Subject: NC_007794:2839239 Novosphingobium aromaticivorans DSM 12444, complete genome
Lineage: Novosphingobium aromaticivorans; Novosphingobium; Sphingomonadaceae; Sphingomonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain, also known as F199, was isolated from a sample obtained at a depth of 410 m from a borehole sample that was drilled at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina, USA. Aromatic hydrocarbon-degrading bacterium. This organism is unusual in that it has glycosphingolipid in the cell envelope instead of the lipopolysaccharide found in most other gram negative organisms. It is typically isolated from a wide range of environmental sites.
