Elucidation of cold adaptation in Glaciimonas sp. PAMC28666 with special focus on trehalose biosynthesis.

ABSTRACT: Glaciimonas sp. PAMC28666, an extremophilic bacterium thriving in Antarctic soil and belonging to the Oxalobacteraceae family, represents the only complete genome of its genus available in the NCBI database. Its genome measures 5.2 Mb and comprises 4,476 genes (4,350 protein-coding and 72 non-coding). Phylogenetic analysis shows the strain PAMC28666 in a unique branch within the genus Glaciimonas, closely related to Glaciimonas alpine Cr9-12, supported by robust bootstrap values. In addition, strain PAMC28666 showed 77.08 and 23.3% ANI and DDH, respectively, with Glaciimonas sp. PCH181.This study focuses on how polar strain PAMC28666 responds to freeze-thaw conditions, Experimental results revealed a notable survival rate of 47.28% when subjected to a tem
