HAMAP: Mycobacterium sp. (strain KMS) complete proteome
General information

Species:  Mycobacterium sp. (strain KMS)
Species code: MYCSK
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Actinobacteria; Actinobacteridae; Actinomycetales; Corynebacterineae; Mycobacteriaceae; Mycobacterium (TaxID: 189918) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Mycobacteria belong to the order Actinomycetales that are Gram-positive, acid-fast, pleomorphic, non-motile rods characterized by distinctive cell surface mycolic acid derivatives. They are obligate aerobes. This isolate belongs to a fast-growing group and actually has a coccus morphology, whereas members of the slow-growing group of Mycobacteria are notorious for causing human and animal diseases.

Mycobacterium KMS was isolated from soil in Libby, Montana, USA, the site of a former lumber and plywood mill. The soil is contaminated by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), and KMS is one of several indigenous mycobacteria isolated from this site that are able to degrade high molecular weight PAH including pyrene, however this isolate cannot degrade benzo(a)pyrene. Other Mycobacteria from this site include strain MCS (MYCSS) and strain JLS (MYCSJ). Strain KMSmineralizes small- and large-ring PAHs, in contrast to other PAH-degrading microbes and thus offers possibilities for bioremediation of PAHs. The genome sequence of the Mycobacterium isolate KMS will permit comparisons with the genomes of pathogenic isolates, as well as an understanding of the pathway for PAH degradation and survival mechanisms in polluted conditions (adapted from http://genome.jgi-psf.org/myc_k/myc_k.home.html).
