Abstract
-
Two strictly aerobic, Gram-staining-positive, non-spore-forming,
regular rod-shaped (approximately 0.7 × 1.9 mm)
bacteria (HY170T and HY001) were isolated from bat feces
collected from Chongzuo city, Guangxi province (22°2054N,
106°4920E, July 2011) and Chuxiong Yi Autonomous Prefecture,
Yunnan province (25°0910N, 102°0439E, October
2013) of South China, respectively. Optimal growth is obtained
at 25–28°C (range, 4–32°C) on BHI-5% sheep blood
plate with pH 7.5 (range, 5.0–10.0) in the presence of 0.5–
1.0% NaCl (w/v) (range, 0–15% NaCl [w/v]). The phylogenetic
and phylogenomic trees based respectively on the 16S
rRNA gene and 845 core gene sequences revealed that the
two strains formed a distinct lineage within the genus Brevibacterium,
most closely related to B. aurantiacum NCDO
739T (16S rRNA similarity, both 98.5%; dDDH, 46.7–46.8%;
ANI, 91.9–92.1%). Strain HY170T contained MK-8(H2), diphosphatidylglycerol
(DPG) and phosphatidylglycerol (PG),
galactose and ribose as the predominant menaquinone, major
polar lipids, and main sugars in the cell wall teichoic acids,
respectively. The meso-diaminopimelic acid (meso-DAP)
was the diagnostic diamino acid of the peptidoglycan found
in strain HY170T. Anteiso-C15:0 and anteiso-C17:0 were the
major fatty acids (> 10%) of strains HY170T and HY001, with
anteiso-C17:1A predominant in strain HY170T but absent in
strain HY001. Mining the genomes revealed the presence
of secondary metabolite biosynthesis gene clusters encoding
for non-alpha poly-amino acids (NAPAA), ectoine, siderophore,
and terpene. Based on results from the phylogenetic,
chemotaxonomic and phenotypic analyses, the two strains
could be classified as a novel species of the genus Brevibacterium,
for which the name Brevibacterium zhoupengii sp.
nov. is proposed (type strain HY170T = CGMCC 1.18600T
= JCM 34230T).

Abstract
-
Due to the different rates of diabetes in different ethnic groups
and the structural differences in intestinal microbiota, this
study evaluated the changes in diabetes-related intestinal microbiota
in two ethnic groups. Fifty-six stool samples were
collected from subjects from the Han and Mongolian ethnic
groups in China, including participants without diabetes
(non-diabetic, ND) and with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The 16S
rDNA gene V3 + V4 area was extracted from microbiota,
amplified by PCR, and used to perform high-throughput sequencing
and screen differential microbiota associated with
ethnicity. The results showed that there were 44 T2D-related
bacterial markers in the Han subjects, of which Flavonifractor,
Alistipes, Prevotella, Oscillibacter, Clostridium XlVa,
and Lachnospiracea_incertae_sedis were most closely related
to diabetes. There were 20 T2D-related bacterial markers in
the Mongolian subjects, of which Fastidiosipila and Barnesiella
were most closely related to diabetes. The common
markers of T2D bacteria in the two ethnic groups were Papillibacter
and Bifidobacterium. There were 17 metabolic pathways
with significant differences between the ND and T2D
groups in the Han group, and 29 metabolic pathways in the
Mongolian group. The glutamatergic metabolic pathway was
the only common metabolic pathway in two ethnic groups.
The composition and function of diabetes-related bacteria
were significantly different among the different ethnic groups,
which suggested that the influence of ethnic differences should
be fully considered when studying the association between
diabetes and bacteria. In addition, the common bacterial
markers found in diabetic patients of different ethnic groups
in this study can be used as potential targets to study the pathogenesis
and treatment of diabetes.

Abstract
-
Flavobacteriaceae, are typically isolated from marine environments.
Polaribacter dokdonensis DSW-5, the type strain
of the species, is a Gram-negative bacterium isolated from the
East Sea of Korea. Whole genome shotgun sequencing was
performed with the HiSeq 2000 platform and paired-end reads
were generated at 188-fold coverage. The sequencing reads
were assembled into two contigs with a total length of 3.08
Mb. The genome sequences of DSW-5 contain 2,776 proteincoding
sequences and 41 RNA genes. Comparison of average
nucleotide identities among six available Polaribacteria genomes
including DSW-5 suggested that the DSW-5 genome
is most similar to that of Polaribacter sp. MED152, which is
a proteorhodopsin-containing marine bacterium. A phylogenomic
analysis of the six Polaribacter strains and 245 Flavobacteriaceae
bacteria confirmed a close relationship of the
genus Polaribacter with Tenacibaculum and Kordia. DSW-5’s
genome has a gene encoding proteorhodopsin and genes encoding
85 enzymes belonging to carbohydrate-active enzyme
families and involved in polysaccharide degradation, which
may play important roles in energy metabolism of the bacterium
in the marine ecosystem. With genes for 238 CAZymes
and 203 peptidases, DSW-5 has a relatively high number of
degrading enzymes for its genome size suggesting its characteristics
as a free-living marine heterotroph.

Abstract
-
A Gram-reaction negative, strictly aerobic, non-motile, orange
colored, and rod-shaped bacterium (designated BS26T) isolated
from compost, was characterized by a polyphasic approach
to clarify its taxonomic position. Strain BS26T was
observed to grow optimally at 25–30°C and at pH 7.0 on
R2A and nutrient media. Strain BS26T showed β-glucosidase
activity that was responsible for its ability to transform ginsenoside
Rb1 (one of the active components of ginseng) to
ginsenoside compound-K (C-K). Phylogenetic analysis based
on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain BS26T belongs
to the genus Niabella of family Chitinophagaceae and
was most closely related to Niabella soli DSM 19437T (94.5%
similarity), N. yanshanensis CCBAU 05354T (94.3%), and
N. aurantiaca DSM 17617T (93.8%). The G+C content of genomic
DNA was 47.3 mol%. Chemotaxonomic data [predominant
isoprenoid quinone-MK-7, major fatty acids–iso-C15:0,
iso-C15:1 G, iso-C17:0 3-OH, and summed feature 3 (comprising
C16:1 ω7c and/or C16:1 ω6c)] supported the affiliation of
strain BS26T to the genus Niabella. However, strain BS26T
could be differentiated genotypically and phenotypically
from the recognized species of the genus Niabella. The novel
isolate therefore represents a novel species, for which the
name Niabella ginsenosidivorans sp. nov. is proposed, with
the type strain BS26T (=KACC 16620T =JCM 18199T).

Abstract
-
An orange-colored bacterial strain, ICM 1-15T, was isolated
from greenhouse soil. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of this
strain showed the highest sequence similarity with Niabella
ginsengisoli GR10-1T (95.2%) and Niabella yanshanensis
CCBAU 05354T (95.0%) among the type strains. The strain
ICM 1-15T was a strictly aerobic, Gram-negative, non-sporeforming,
non-motile, flexirubin pigment-producing, short
rod-shaped bacterium. The strain grew at 15–35°C (optimum,
25°C), at a pH of 5.0–8.5 (optimum, pH 6.5), and in
the presence of 0–3% NaCl (optimum, 1%). The DNA G+C
content of strain ICM 1-15T was 43.6 mol%. It contained
MK-7 as the major isoprenoid quinone and iso-C15:0 (38.9%),
iso-C15:1 G (20.3%), and iso-C17:0 3-OH (12.9%) as the major
fatty acids. On the basis of evidence from our polyphasic
taxonomic study, we concluded that strain ICM 1-15T should
be classified within a novel species of the genus Niabella,
for which the name Niabella terrae sp. nov. is proposed.
The type strain is ICM 1-15T (=KACC 17443T =JCM 19502T).

Abstract
-
Clostridium acetobutylicum is an industrially important organism that produces acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE). The main objective of this study was to characterize the effects of increased cell density on the production of ABE during the phase transition from acidogenesis to solventogenesis in C. acetobutylicum. The increased ABE productivity of C. acetobutylicum was obtained by increasing the cell density using a newly designed medium (designated C. acetobutylicum medium 1; CAM1). The maximum OD600 value of C. acetobutylicum ATCC 824 strain obtained with CAM1 was 19.7, which is 1.8 times higher than that obtained with clostridial growth medium (CGM). The overall ABE productivity obtained in the CAM1-fermetation of the ATCC 824 strain was 0.83 g/L/h, which is 1.5 times higher than that (0.55 g/L/h) obtained with CGM. However, the increased productivity obtained with CAM1 did not result in an increase in the final ABE titer, because phase transition occurred at a high titer of acids.

Abstract
-
Thirty-two isolates were obtained from wheat rhizosphere
by wheat germ agglutinin (WGA) labeled with fluorescein
isothiocyanate (FITC). Most isolates were able to produce
indole acetic acid (65.6%) and siderophores (59.3%), as well
as exhibited phosphate solubilization (96.8%). Fourteen isolates
displayed three plant growth-promoting traits. Among
these strains, two phosphate-dissolving ones, WS29 and
WS31, were evaluated for their beneficial effects on the early
growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum Wan33). Strain WS29
and WS31 significantly promoted the development of lateral
roots by 34.9% and 27.6%, as well as increased the root dry
weight by 25.0% and 25.6%, respectively, compared to those
of the control. Based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons
and phylogenetic positions, both isolates were determined
to belong to the genus Bacillus. The proportion of
isolates showing the properties of plant growth-promoting
rhizobacteria (PGPR) was higher than in previous reports.
The efficiency of the isolation of PGPR strains was also
greatly increased by WGA labeled with FITC. The present
study indicated that WGA could be used as an effective tool
for isolating PGPR strains with high affinity to host plants
from wheat roots. The proposed approach could facilitate
research on biofertilizers or biocontrol agents.

Abstract
-
Phyllosticta tabernaemontanae, a leaf spot fungus isolated from the diseased leaves of Wrightia tinctoria, showed the production of taxol, an anticancer drug, on modified liquid medium (M1D) and potato dextrose broth (PDB) medium in culture for the first time. The presence of taxol was confirmed by spectroscopic and chromatographic methods of analysis. The amount of taxol produced by this fungus was quantified using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The maximum amount of taxol production was recorded in the fungus grown on M1D medium (461 ug/L) followed by PDB medium (150 ug/L). The production rate was increased to 9.2x103 fold than that found in the culture broth of earlier reported fungus, Taxomyces andreanae. The results designate that P. tabernaemontanae is an excellent candidate for taxol production. The fungal taxol extracted also showed a strong cytotoxic activity in the in vitro culture of tested human cancer cells by apoptotic assay.

Abstract
-
Epidemiological and experimental studies provide evidences that diet and intestinal microflora play an important role in colon carcinogenesis. In recent years, it has been suggested that lactic acid bacteria (LAB) used to ferment dairy products have an inhibitory effect on the colon cancer. This study was designed to determine the effect of Bifidobacterium longum HY8001 (Bif) and Lactobacillus acidophilus HY2104 (Lac) of Korean origin on azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colonic preneoplastic lesions such as aberrant crypt foci (ACF) formation and cecal pH. At five weeks of age, Spraque-Dawley rats were divided at random into four (AOM alone, Bif, Lac, and Bif+Lac) groups. Animals were weighed weekly and oral administration of LAB cultures were performed daily until the termination of the study. Two weeks later, all animals were given a subcutaneous injection of AOM dissolved in normal saline at a dose of 15 mg/kg of body weight once per week for 2 weeks. All rats were necropsied 7 weeks after the last AOM injection, and the ACF were visualized under light microscopy in the formalin-fixed, unsectioned methylene blue-stained colons. The total number of aberrant crypt in Bif, Lac, and Bif+Lac groups were significantly lower than that of the AOM alone group and the percentage of inhibitions weas 35.0, 45.4 and 45.0%, respectively. Significant inhibition (p<0.001) in the total number of ACF was also observed in LAB treated groups (Bif, Lac, and Bif+Lac group by 30.3, 38.6, and 41.2%, respec-tively). Furthermore, cecal pH appeared to significantly decrease by LAB administration. The results of present study provide some evidences for potential colon tumor-inhibitory properties of lactic cultures and fermented dairy products.
