Description and Significance
Describe the appearance, habitat, etc. of the organism, and why you think it is important.
Genome Structure
The genome of strain 110108T, which is the type strain of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum, is a circular chromosome that is 1,986,154 bp long. 87.2% of the genome is DNA coding (1,744,192 bp), and the GC content of the genome is 53.13% (1,055,308 bp). The genome of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum codes for a total of 1,885 genes, with 64 of those being RNA genes and the other 1,821 genes being protein encoding genes (Yasawong et al., 2010).
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.
