Stenotrophomonas daejeonensis strain JCM 16244

Stenotrophomonas daejeonensis strain JCM 16244 is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming bacterium that thrives in aerobic environments, with an optimal growth temperature of 29.0°C. This strain is part of the Stenotrophomonas genus, which is known for its metabolic versatility and ability to inhabit diverse ecological niches. The Gram-negative nature of S. daejeonensis indicates a complex cell wall structure, characterized by a thin peptidoglycan layer and an outer membrane containing lipopolysaccharides, which may contribute to its resilience in various environmental conditions. The preference for aerobic conditions suggests that S. daejeonensis relies on oxygen for its metabolic processes, which may allow it to exploit a range of organic compounds in its habitat. Its optimal growth temperature of 29.0°C implies that this strain may be well-suited for environments that are moderately warm, such as soil or water ecosystems in temperate regions. Given the traits of Stenotrophomonas daejeonensis strain JCM 16244, it may play a significant role in biogeochemical cycles, particularly in the degradation of organic materials and nutrient cycling. Its metabolic capabilities and adaptability position it as a potential contributor to microbial diversity and ecological balance in its native habitat.
