Species

Methylosinus trichosporium (strain ATCC35070)

Description and significance

"Methylosinus trichosporium" is a gram negative, aerobic bacteria. Trichosporium is a bacteria that relies on methane as a source of carbon and energy. This bacteria not only helps by consuming and getting rid of methane it also serves another purpose as it has shown the ability to degrades Trichloroethylene and cometabolism of polyhydroxybutyrate. Trichloroethylene a chemical that is toxic to aquatic life, plants and animals.

16S Ribosomal RNA Gene Information

Methylosinus trichosporium is a species of a-proteobacteria in the family Methylocystaceae. ("Methylosinus trichosporium". national library of medicine https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/data-hub/taxonomy/426/)

                                                                                                                                                                           Phylogenetic-Analysis-of-the-16S-rDNA-from-Methylosinus-trichosporium-IMV-3011-The-tree.png.     


Genome structure

The genome structure methylosinus trichosporium was sequenced, assembled, and annotated by the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institut. 44 contigs and 9 scaffolds was assembled from Roche 454-FLX, 454-std, 454-Titanium PE, and Illumina Solexa reads using Velvet (21). Automatic annotation was done using the Prokaryotic Dynamic Programming Genefinding Algorithm. Genome is 4.9 Mbp in size, contains 66% G+C, and encodes a single rRNA operon (Vallenet, D., S. Engelen, D. Mornico, S. Cruveiller, L. Fleury, A. Lajus, Z. Rouy, D. Roche, G. Salvignol, C. Scarpelli, and C. Medigue et al., 2009)

Ecology and Pathogenesis

"Methylosinus trichosporium" has been found in various areas such as Soil, fresh water sediments, groundwater. )Whittenbury et al., 1970b) (Bowman et al., 1993) (Stein et al., 2010)

Current Research

Current research is underway for "Methylosinus trichosporium" it is currently being studied for multiple things such as methane assimilation, copper accumulation, and metal-dependent gene expression. Recent interest in methanotroph metabolic engineering has led to new protocols for genetic manipulation of methanotrophs that are effective and simple to use. "Methylosinus trichosporium" has shown to express both sMMO and pMMO, methanobactin (Dassama et al.,2017) and can express two distinct MDHs, the calcium-binding MxaF and the lanthanide-binding XoxF (Haque. Kalidass, et al., 2015).
