Description of Lysinibacillus composti 17J49-9

Cells are Gram-stain negative, and oval-shaped. Colonies are white-colored after 3 days of incubation on R2A at 25°C. In the BIOLOG GEN III, L-alanine, L-arginine, acetoacetic acid, L-glutamic acid, and tween 40 are utilized as sole carbon source. But D-trehalose, D-cellobiose, gentiobiose, sucrose, stachyose, D-raffinose, Dgalactose, inosine, D-sorbitol, glycerol, D-serine, Laspartic acid, L-serine, D-gluconic acid, D-glucuronic acid, glucuronamide, propionic acid, N -acetyl-D-mannosamine, dextrin, D-fructose, D-fructose 6-PO 4, Lgalactonic acid lactone, D-galacturonic acid, gelatin, α - D-glucose, α -keto-glutaric acid, L-malic acid, D-maltose, D-mannitol, D-mannose, D-melibiose, β -methyl-D-glucoside, 3-methyl glucose, myo-inositol, pectin, glycyl-L-proline, L-pyroglutamic acid, quinic acid, L-rhamnose, D-turanose acetic acid, N -acetyl-D-galactosamine, N -acetyl-neuraminic acid, N -acetyl-D-glucosamine, γ - amino-butryric acid, D-arabitol, D-aspartic acid, bromo-succinic acid, citric acid, formic acid, D-fucose, L-fucose, D-glucose-6-PO 4, L-histidine, α -hydroxybutyric acid, β - hydroxy-D,L-butyric acid, p -hydroxy-phenylacetic acid, α -keto-butyric acid, L-lactic acid, D-lactic acid methyl ester, α -D-lactose, D-malic acid, methyl pyruvate, mucic acid, D-saccharic acid, and D-salicin are not utilized. In sensitivity tests, the tetrazolium redox dye is reduced in the presence of potassium tellurite, aztreonam, 1% NaCl, 1% sodium lactate, 4% NaCl, lithium chloride, pH 6, and nalidixic acid but not 8% NaCl, guanidine HCl, D-serine, sodium butyrate, tetrazolium violet fusidic acid, lincomycin, minocycline, niaproof 4, pH 5, rifamycin SV, sodium bromate, tetrazolium blue, troleandomycin, and vancomycin.

Nitrate reduction and indole production are negative (API 20NE). In the API 20NE systems, positive for arginine dihydrolase, urease D-glucose, D-mannose, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, malic acid, trisodium citrate, esculin hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, β -galactosidase, L-arabinose, D-mannitol, and N -acetyl-D-glucosamine. Negative for capric acid, adipic acid, phenylacetic acid, glucose fermentation.

Strain 17J49-9 (= NIBRBAC000500529) was isolated from a soil sample, Seoul, Nowon-gu Gongneung-dong, Korea.
