Arcanobacterium haemolyticum

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.
