Pseudoxanthomonas winnipegensis is a gram negative bacteria. This species obtains the bacillus shape and has a yellowish pigment. Pseudoxanthomonas winnipegensis was derived water, plants or contaminated soils. Recent studies recovered the bacteria from human clinical materials and was recently recovered from cystic fibrosis patients. Until recently, Pseudoxanthomonas species were only identifiable at the genus level. New gene sequencing improvements have allowed for the identification of species within the genus.

Pseudoxanthomonas winnipegensis

Description and Significance

Pseudoxanthomonas winnipegensis is a gram negative bacteria. This species obtains the bacillus shape and has a yellowish pigment. Pseudoxanthomonas winnipegensis was derived from water, plants and contaminated soils. Recent studies recovered the bacteria from human clinical materials and was recently recovered from patients with cystic fibrosis. Until recently, Pseudoxanthomonas species were only identifiable at the genus level. However, new gene sequencing improvements have allowed for the identification of the species within the genus level.

Genome Structure

Specific strains of this bacteria were studied by whole genome sequencing which used average nucleotide identity, DNA-DNA hybridization, amino acid identity, core genome and nucleotide analyses, biochemical and cellular fatty acid analysis and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The structure of Pseudoxanthomonas winnipegensis was investigated using scanning microscopes and transmission electron microscopes. The bacteria was found to be a gram-negative bacilli. Genome sequencing was analyzed using 16S rRNA. Findings showed the bacteria had a average genome size ranging from 4.36 to 4.73 Mb. The genome also has an average G+C content of 69.12 mol%. Additionally, genome sequencing found Pseudoxanthomonas winnipegensis has a circular chromosomal structure with 4,505,034 bases, and a CDS of 4077.
