Citricoccus nitrophenolicus
Description and Significance
Caldivirga maquilingensis were first isolated from a hot spring located in the Philippines. This hot spring is known as 'mud spring' and is found in Mt. Maquiling, Laguna. This hot spring is extremely acidic. The temperature range for the spring range from 60-92*C. The pH range was from 2.3-6.4.
In lab growth, it was determined that C. maquilingensis grew best at 85*C and at a pH range of 3.7-4.2.
The appearance of C. maquilingensis ranges slightly. Most are rod-shaped and are either completely straight or have a slight curve shape. Although, the width of the bacteria range widely, the average size is 0.4-0.7 micrometers.
Genome Structure
The genome size of Brevibacillus-brevis is around 4-5 megabase pairs and is a single circular chromosome. In more detail it can be described as a gram-positive, rod-shaped and spore-forming.
Cell Structure, Metabolism and Life Cycle
Brevibacillus brevis gains energy through aerobic respiration and it breaks down nutrients like glucose via glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway. It can also ferment sugars under anaerobic conditions to generate ATP.
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.
