Classification

cellular organisms; Bacteria; Pseudomonadati; Pseudomonadota; Gammaproteobacteria; Oceanospirillales; Oceanospirillaceae


Species

NCBI: [1]


Genus species

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?


Cell Structure, Metabolism and Life Cycle

Interesting features of cell structure; how it gains energy; what important molecules it produces.

O. antarctica are aerobic bacteria that are chemoorganoheterotrophs that grow in aliphatic alkanes which are hydrocarbons made up of single covalent bonds (Gregson et al., 2020). They are able to degrade hydrocarbons such as Deisel for energy (Gentile et al., 2016).

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.
