Pseudoalteromonas distincta is a marine bacterium. [1]
Pseudoalteromonas distincta was isolated from a marine sponge near the Komandorski Islands in 1995. [1] In 2000, Alteromonas distincta was reclassified and added to Pseudoalteromonas distincta. [1]
Pseudoalteromonas is a genus of marine bacteria. In 1995, Gauthier et al proposed Pseudoalteromonas as a new genus to be split from Alteromonas. The Pseudoalteromonas species that were described before 1995 were originally part of the genus Alteromonas, and were reassigned to Pseudoalteromonas based on their rRNA-DNA analysis.
The Pseudoalteromonadaceae are a small family of Pseudomonadota.
Alteromonas is a genus of Pseudomonadota found in sea water, either in the open ocean or in the coast. It is Gram-negative. Its cells are curved rods with a single polar flagellum.
Pseudoalteromonas piscicida is a marine bacterium. It is known to produce a quorum sensing molecule called 2-heptyl-4-quinolone (HHQ), which functions as a bacterial infochemical. Research into the effects of this infochemical on phytoplankton is currently being conducted by Dr. Kristen Whalen of Haverford College.
Corticovirus is a genus of viruses in the family Corticoviridae. Corticoviruses are bacteriophages; that is, their natural hosts are bacteria. The genus contains two species. The name is derived from Latin cortex, corticis. However, prophages closely related to PM2 are abundant in the genomes of aquatic bacteria, suggesting that the ecological importance of corticoviruses might be underestimated. Bacteriophage PM2 was first described in 1968 after isolation from seawater sampled from the coast of Chile.
Algicola is a genus in the phylum Pseudomonadota (Bacteria).
Pseudoalteromonas agarivorans is a marine bacterium.
Pseudoalteromonas aurantia is an antibacterial-producing marine bacterium commonly found in Mediterranean waters. In 1979, Gauthier and Breittmayer first named it Alteromonas aurantia to include it in the genus Alteromonas that was described seven years earlier, in 1972 by Baumann et al. In 1995, Gauthier et al renamed Alteromonas aurantia to Pseudoalteromonas aurantia to include it in their proposed new genus, Pseudoalteromonas, which they recommended splitting from Alteromonas.
Pseudoalteromonas citrea is a yellow-pigmented marine bacterium that is antibiotic-producing and was isolated from Mediterranean waters off Nice. Originally named Alteromonas citrea, nearly two decades later it was reclassified as part of the Genus Pseudoalteromonas.
Pseudoalteromonas denitrificans is a marine bacterium.
Pseudoalteromonas elyakovii is a marine bacterium.
Pseudoalteromonas espejiana is a marine bacterium.
Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea is a marine bacterium which was isolated from seawater near Nice.
Pseudoalteromonas rubra is a marine bacterium.
Pseudoalteromonas tetraodonis is a marine bacterium isolated from the surface slime of the puffer fish. It secretes the neurotoxin, tetrodotoxin. It was originally described in 1990 as Alteromonas tetraodonis but was reclassified in 2001 to the genus Pseudoalteromonas.
Pseudoalteromonas undina is a marine bacterium isolated from seawater off the coast of Northern California. It was originally classified as Alteromonas undina but was reclassified in 1995 to the genus Pseudoalteromonas.
Pseudoalteromonas aliena is a marine, aerobic, heterotrophic bacterium that has been collected from Amur Bay.
Alteromonas macleodii is a species of widespread marine bacterium found in surface waters across temperate and tropical regions. First discovered in a survey of aerobic bacteria in 1972, A. macleodii has since been placed within the phylum Pseudomonadota and is recognised as a prominent component of surface waters between 0 and 50 metres. Alteromonas macleodii has a single circular DNA chromosome of 4.6 million base pairs. Variable regions in the genome of A. macleodii confer functional diversity to closely related strains and facilitate different lifestyles and strategies. Certain A. macleodii strains are currently being explored for their industrial uses, including in cosmetics, bioethanol production and rare earth mining.
κ-Carrageenase is an enzyme with systematic name κ-carrageenan 4-β-D-glycanohydrolase (configuration-retaining). It catalyses the endohydrolysis of (1→4)-β-D-linkages between D-galactose 4-sulfate and 3,6-anhydro-D-galactose in κ-carrageenans
Pentabromopseudilin, the first reported marine microbial antibiotic, is a bioactive natural product that contains a highly halogenated 2-arrylpyrrole moiety. Pentabromopseudilin (PBP) is a unique hybrid bromophenol-bromopyrrole compound that is made up of over 70% bromine atoms, contributing to its potent bioactivity. PBP was first isolated from Pseudomonas bromoutilis, and has since been found to be produced by other marine microbes, including Alteromonas luteoviolaceus, Chromobacteria, and Pseudoalteromonas spp.
