Abstract
-
Leuconostoc lactis EFEL005 (KACC 91922) isolated from
kimchi showed promising probiotic attributes; resistance
against acid and bile salts, absence of transferable genes for
antibiotic resistance, broad utilization of prebiotics, and no
hemolytic activity. To expand our understanding of the species,
we generated a draft genome sequence of the strain and
analyzed its genomic features related to the aforementioned
probiotic properties. Genome assembly resulted in 35 contigs,
and the draft genome has 1,688,202 base pairs (bp) with
a G+C content of 43.43%, containing 1,644 protein-coding
genes and 50 RNA genes. The average nucleotide identity
analysis showed high homology (≥ 96%) to the type strain
L. lactis KCTC3528, but low homology (≤ 95%) to L. lactis
KCTC3773 (formerly L. argentinum). Genomic analysis revealed
the presence of various genes for sucrose metabolism
(glucansucrases, invertases, sucrose phosphorylases, and
mannitol dehydrogenase), acid tolerance (F1F0 ATPases, cation
transport ATPase, branched-chain amino acid permease,
and lysine decarboxylase), vancomycin response regulator,
and antibacterial peptide (Lactacin F). No gene for production
of biogenic amines (histamine and tyramine) was found.
This report will facilitate the understanding of probiotic
properties of this strain as a starter for fermented foods.

Abstract
-
Kitasatospora cheerisanensis KCTC 2395, producing bafilomycin
antibiotics belonging to plecomacrolide group, was
isolated from a soil sample at Mt. Jiri, Korea. The draft genome
sequence contains 8.04 Mb with 73.6% G+C content
and 7,810 open reading frames. All the genes for aerial mycelium
and spore formations were confirmed in this draft
genome. In phylogenetic analysis of MurE proteins (UDPN-
acetylmuramyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate:DAP ligase) in a conserved
dcw (division of cell wall) locus, MurE proteins of
Kitasatospora species were placed in a separate clade between
MurEs of Streptomyces species incorporating LL-diaminopimelic
acid (DAP) and MurEs of Saccharopolyspora erythraea
as well as Mycobacterium tuberculosis ligating meso-
DAP. From this finding, it was assumed that Kitasatospora
MurEs exhibit the substrate specificity for both LL-DAP and
meso-DAP. The bafilomycin biosynthetic gene cluster was
located in the left subtelomeric region. In 71.3 kb-long gene
cluster, 17 genes probably involved in the biosynthesis of
bafilomycin derivatives were deduced, including 5 polyketide
synthase (PKS) genes comprised of 12 PKS modules.
