Description of Paenarthrobacter nitroguajacolicus 18JY15-11

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, aerobic and coccishaped. Colonies are white-colored after 3 days of incubation on R2A at 25℃.

In API 20NE system, positive for reduction of nitrates (NO 3) to nitrogen (N 2), arginine dihydrolase, urease, esculin hydrolysis, β-galactosidase, D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-D-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Negative for the reduction of nitrates (NO 3) to nitrite (NO 2 -), indole production on tryptophan, glucose fermentation, and assimilation of capric acid. Weak positive for gelatin hydrolysis and assimilation of adipic acid.

In API 32GN system, positive for L-rhamnose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-ribose, inositol, D-saccharose (sucrose), D-maltose, suberic acid, sodium malonate, sodium acetate, lactic acid, L-alanine, potassium 5-ketogluconate, glycogen, 3-hydroxybenzoic acid, L-serine, D-mannitol, D-glucose, salicin, D-melibiose, D-fucose, D-sorbitol, L-arabinose, propionic acid, valeric acid, trisodium citrate, L-histidine, potassium 2-ketogluconate, 3-hydroxybutyric acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, and L-proline. Negative for itaconic acid and capric acid. G + C mol for strain 18JY15-11 is 62.6%. Cells showed resistance to UV radiation. Strain 18JY15-11 (= NIBRBA0000116011) was isolated from a soil sample in Korea.
