Classification
Domain Bacteria, Phylum Actinomycetota, Class Actinomycetia, Order Pseudonocardiales, Family Pseudonocardiaceae, Genus Pseudonocardia.
Species
Pseudonocardia sp.
Description and Significance
Describe the appearance, habitat, etc. of the organism, and why you think it is important.
Genome Structure
Describe the size and content of the genome. How many chromosomes? Circular or linear? Other interesting features? What is known about its sequence? Pseudonocardia sp. have one circular chromosome about six million base-pairs (~6,135 kbp) in length. Pseudonocardia sp. also often have two extrachromosomal plasmids, named pFRP1-1 and pFRP1-2. Both of these plasmids are circular as well. Both are significantly smaller than the genome; pFRP1-1 is about 297 kbp in length while pFRP1-2 is about half of that size, at 121 kbp in length. All in all, the genetic material housed by Pseudonocardia sp. cells code for 5,109 proteins and 63 RNAs.
Cell Structure, Metabolism and Life Cycle
Interesting features of cell structure; how it gains energy; what important molecules it produces.
Ecology and Pathogenesis
Habitat; symbiosis; biogeochemical significance; contributions to environment.
If relevant, how does this organism cause disease? Human, animal, plant hosts? Virulence factors, as well as patient symptoms.
References
