Genome sequence of the marine bacterium Vibrio campbellii DS40M4, isolated from open ocean water

J Bacteriol. 2012 Feb;194(4):904. doi: 10.1128/JB.06583-11.

Abstract

Vibrio sp. strain DS40M4 is a marine bacterium that was isolated from open ocean water. In this work, using genomic taxonomy, we were able to classify this bacterium as V. campbellii. Our genomic analysis revealed that V. campbellii DS40M4 harbors genes related to iron transport, virulence, and environmental fitness, such as those encoding anguibactin and vanchrobactin biosynthesis proteins, type II, III, IV, and VI secretion systems, and proteorhodopsin.
