Complete Genome Sequencing of Polar Arthrobacter sp. PAMC25284, Copper Tolerance Potential Unraveled with Genomic Analysis by Jayram Karmacharya, Prasansah Shrestha, So-Ra Han, Hyun Park, Tae-Jin Oh

“…The strain PAMC25284 genome consists of a circular chromosome with a GC content of 65.6% and is projected to contain 3,588 genes, of which 3,150 are protein coding, 366 are pseudogenes, 19 are rRNA coding, and 50 are tRNA coding genes. Using comparative genomics, we showed that PMAC25284 has copper-transporting ATPases, copper chaperone, copper-responsive transcriptional regulator, and multi-copper oxidase domains, which are found in both Gram-positive (like Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Enterococcus hirae) and Gram-negative bacteria (like E. coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa). …”

Penicillium psychrofluorescens sp. nov., a naturally autofluorescent Antarctic fungus by Alinta Furnell, Nicole Benaud, Xabier Vázquez-Campos, Edward C.Y. Liew, Allison Mertin, Jordan A. Vink, Kate Montgomery, Marc R. Wilkins, Brett A. Summerell, Belinda C. Ferrari

“…Penicillium psychrofluorescens is named for its intense autofluorescence derived from a combination of compounds that may include NADPH, porphyrins, and secondary metabolites, such as polyketides. Comparative genomics with both Antarctic and mesophilic Penicillium spp. shows that Penicillium psychrofluorescens has a wide repertoire of glycoside hydrolases, but almost no polysaccharide lyases, has comparably large effector proteins, lacks the machinery to use nitrate as an N-source, but has the genes for the assimilation of phosphorus from phosphonates via oxidative pathway. …”
