Eubacterium sp. AB3007
Introduction
Eubacterium sp. AB3007
Eubacterium sp. AB3007 was isolated from the plant-adherent fraction of bovine rumen contents in NZ [1, cow B]. Its carbohydrate metabolism and fermentation end products have not been determined. It is a member of the family Anaerovoracaceae within the order Peptostreptococcales.
It is of interest as it is one of the few rumen bacteria whose genome encodes the gene cluster for the enzyme choline trimethylamine lyase (CTMAL; EC:4.3.99.4) which generates trimethylamine a substrate for methylotrophic methanogens, especially members of the Methanomassiliicoccales [2]. CTMAL is an enzyme complex composed of a catalytic choline utilisation polypeptide CutC, and an associated activating protein CutD, encoded by a 19 gene cluster that also contains genes encoding bacterial microcompartment proteins.
The draft genome for AB3007 (2,301,752 bp) was generated through the Hungate1000 project with JGI [3].
