Project description:Nakamurella lactea DLS-10T, isolated from rock in Korea, is one of the four type strains of the genus Nakamurella. In this study, we describe the high quality draft genome of N. lactea DLS-10T and its annotation. A summary of phenotypic data collected from previously published studies was also included. The genome of strain DLS-10T presents a size of 5.82 Mpb, 5100 protein coding genes, and a C + G content of 68.9%. Based on the genome analysis, emended description of N. lactea in terms of G + C content was also proposed.
Project description:White rot fungi, such as Irpex lacteus, offer significant potential for lignocellulose degradation and protein synthesis in sustainable biofuel and animal feed production,but optimizing nitrogen sources to balance fungal growth, lignin degradation, and protein synthesis remains a critical challenge.This study investigated the effects of ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) and sodium nitrate (NaNO₃) on I. lacteus fermentation in wheat straw, with a focus on the regulation of nitrogen source.Transcriptomic analysis revealed that NaNO₃ upregulated genes associated with nitrogen uptake and cellulose/hemicellulose degradation,while exerting less repression on key ligninolytic enzymes, such as manganese peroxidase and cytochrome P450, compared to NH₄Cl.These findings suggest that NaNO₃ enhances I. lacteus metabolism by harmonizing lignin degradation with efficient nitrogen conversion.
Project description:Nakamurella multipartita (Yoshimi et al. 1996) Tao et al. 2004 is the type species of the monospecific genus Nakamurella in the actinobacterial suborder Frankineae. The nonmotile, coccus-shaped strain was isolated from activated sludge acclimated with sugar-containing synthetic wastewater, and is capable of accumulating large amounts of polysaccharides in its cells. Here we describe the features of the organism, together with the complete genome sequence and annotation. This is the first complete genome sequence of a member of the family Nakamurellaceae. The 6,060,298 bp long single replicon genome with its 5415 protein-coding and 56 RNA genes is part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.
