Description of Paracoccus sanguinis O13M9

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, non-flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, entire and yellowish on MA medium after 48 h incubation at 30℃. Cells reduce nitrate to nitrogen and are positive for alkaline phosphatase, esterase (C4), esterase lipase (C8), leucine arylamidase, valine arylamidase, acid phosphatase, naphthol­AS­BI­phosphohydrolase (API ZYM). Assimilate D­glucose, L­arabinose, gluconate, adipate, malate, L­fucose, propionate, valerate, L­histidine, 3­hydroxy­butyrate, L­proline, D­ribose, itaconate, suberate, acetate, lactate, L­alanine, 3­hydroxy­benzoate, L­serine (API 20NE/ID 32GN) and utilize β ­D­glucoside, α ­D­glucose, D­galactose, D­fucose, L­fucose, inosine, myo­inositol, glycerol, gelatin, glycyl­L­proline, L­alanine, L­aspartic acid, L­glutamic acid, pyroglutamic acid, L­serine, D­gluconic acid, quinic acid, methyl pyruvate, L­lactic acid, α ­glutaric acid, D­malic acid, L­malic acid, Tween40, β ­butyric acid, acetoacetic acid, acetic acid and formic acid as sole carbon sources (Biolog GEN III).

Strain O 13M9 (= NIBRBAC000503084) was isolated from the gut of spotted steed ( Biwia springeri ) at Yeongwol, Gangwon Province, Korea. The DNA G + C content of the type strain is 70 mol %.
