About: Aromatoleum

An Entity of Type: bacteria, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

"Aromatoleum" is a genus of bacteria capable of microbial biodegradation of organic pollutants. It has one single described species member, A. aromaticum, for which the only strain is strain EbN1. This taxonomy is accepted by the NCBI taxonomy database, and consequently by many bioinformatic databases. However, it the strain EbN1 has not been described in detail, therefore, according to the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria, the name "Aromatoleum aromaticum" is not valid and should be officially referred to as Azoarcus sp. EbN1 as it belongs to the Azoarcus/Thauera cluster. The discovery of the strain was published in 1995, and was subsequently referred to in the literature as "Aromatoleum aromaticum" and cited as "(Rabus, unpublished data)".

  • "Aromatoleum" is a genus of bacteria capable of microbial biodegradation of organic pollutants. It has one single described species member, A. aromaticum, for which the only strain is strain EbN1. This taxonomy is accepted by the NCBI taxonomy database, and consequently by many bioinformatic databases. However, it the strain EbN1 has not been described in detail, therefore, according to the International Code of Nomenclature of Bacteria, the name "Aromatoleum aromaticum" is not valid and should be officially referred to as Azoarcus sp. EbN1 as it belongs to the Azoarcus/Thauera cluster. The discovery of the strain was published in 1995, and was subsequently referred to in the literature as "Aromatoleum aromaticum" and cited as "(Rabus, unpublished data)". A. aromaticum strain EbN1 has been fully sequenced by the same researchers who discovered it and coworkers. It has one chromosome and two plasmids, encoding for 10 anaerobic and 4 aerobic aromatic degradation pathways. The genome is rich in paralogous , mobile gene elements, and genes similar to that from other bacteria, suggesting a history full of horizontal gene transfer events. The bacterium has a well-regulated metabolic network. Unlike many species in Azoarcus proper, it is incapable of fixing nitrogen. (en)
  • Aromatoleum es un género de proteobacterias capaz de biodegradar compuestos responsables de polución orgánica. El genoma de unos ~4.7 Mb del organismo desnitrificante facultativo Aromatoleum aromaticum, cepa EbN1, fue el primero en secuenciarse para un degradador anaeróbico de compuestos hidrocarbonados (usando tolueno o etilbenceno como sustratos). La secuencia génica de la bacteria reveló unas dos docenas de clústers génicos (incluyendo varios parálogos) que codificaban para una compleja red catabólica para la degradación aeróbica y anaeróbica de compuestos aromáticos. Esta secuencia genómica forma la base de detallados estudios actuales acerca de la regulación de vías y estructuras enzimáticas.​ (es)
