20.500.12556/RUL-134378 Description of Komagataeibacter melaceti sp. nov. and Komagataeibacter melomenusus sp. nov. isolated from apple cider vinegar Two novel strains AV382 and AV436 were isolated from a submerged industrial bioreactor for production of apple cider vinegar in Kopivnik (Slovenia). Both strains showed very high (≥98.2%) 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with Komagataeibacter species, but lower 16S–23S rRNA gene internal transcribed spacer (ITS). The highest similarity of the 16S–23S rRNA gene ITS of AV382 was to Komagataeibacter kakiaceti LMG 26206$^T$ (91.6%), of AV436 to Komagataeibacter xylinus LMG 1515$^T$ (93.9%). The analysis of genome sequences confirmed that AV382 is the most closely related to K. kakiaceti (ANIb 88.2%) and AV436 to K. xylinus (ANIb 91.6%). Genome to genome distance calculations exhibit for both strains ≤47.3% similarity to all type strains of the genus Komagataeibacter. The strain AV382 can be differentiated from its closest relatives K. kakiaceti and Komagataeibacter saccharivorans by its ability to form 2-keto and 5-keto-D-gluconic acids from glucose, incapability to grow in the presence of 30% glucose, formation of C$_{19:0}$ cyclo ω8c fatty acid and tolerance of up to 5% acetic acid in the presence of ethanol. The strain AV436 can be differentiated from its closest relatives K. xylinus, Komagataeibacter sucrofermentans, and Komagataeibacter nataicola by its ability to form 5-keto-D-gluconic acid, growth on 1-propanol, efficient synthesis of cellulose, and tolerance to up to 5% acetic acid in the presence ethanol. The major fatty acid of both strains is C$_{18:1}$ ω7c. Based on a combination of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic features, the strains AV382$^T$ and AV436$^T$ represent novel species of the genus Komagataeibacter, for which the names Komagataeibacter melaceti sp. nov. and Komagataeibacter melomenusus are proposed, respectively. The type strain of Komagataeibacter melaceti is AV382$^T$ (= ZIM B1054$^T$ = LMG 31303$^T$ = CCM 8958$^T$) and of Komagataeibacter melomenusus AV436$^T$ (= ZIM B1056$^T$ = LMG 31304$^T$ = CCM 8959$^T$). acetic acid bacteria Acetobacteraceae Komagataeibacter Komagataeibacter melaceti Komagataeibacter melomenusus vinegar true false true Angleški jezik Ni določen Članek v reviji 2022-01-12 10:23:09 2022-01-12 10:23:09 2022-09-13 03:54:49 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2020 0 0 16 str. iss. 8, art. 1178 Vol. 8 2020 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 579.6 2076-2607 10.3390/microorganisms8081178 24579587 RAZ_Maric_Leon_2020.pdf RAZ_Maric_Leon_2020.pdf 1 9ADD653C4BB2B9E28D5024ED1A084B12 e673e376d1f817fe51f8635ecb53a60b023fd9e8046e21a5407d93916747f4ba 7c122c3c-7389-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=152795 https://www.mdpi.com/2076-2607/8/8/1178 1 14372640-7389-11ec-abdb-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=152794 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
