verrucomicrobia

(noun)

Verrucomicrobia is a recently described phylum of bacteria which is part of the PVC superphylum and they possess a compartmentalised cell plan with a condensed nucleoid.

Examples of verrucomicrobia in the following topics:

  • Verrucomicrobia

    • Verrucomicrobia is a recently described phylum of bacteria which is part of the PVC superphylum.
    • Verrucomicrobia is a recently described phylum of bacteria which is part of the PVC superphylum.
    • The Planctomycetes may be basal to the Chlamydiae-Verrucomicrobia-Lentisphaerae clade.
    • Verrucomicrobia have been isolated from fresh water, soil environments and human feces.
    • Describe the structure of Verrucomicrobia and its placement in the PVC superphylum
  • Planctomycetes

    • RNA sequencing shows that the planctomycetes are related to the Verrucomicrobia and possibly the Chlamydiae.
  • Chlamydiae

    • Phylogeny and shared presence of conserved indels in proteins such as RNA polymerase Beta subunit and lysyl-tRNA synthetase indicate that Verrucomicrobia are the closest free-living relatives of these parasitic organisms.
  • Methylotrophy and Methanotrophy

    • This difference (along with variability in membrane structure) divides methanotrophs into several subgroups, such as the Methylococcaceae, Methylocystaceae, and Verrucomicrobiae.
