HAMAP: Phenylobacterium zucineum (strain HLK1) complete proteome
General information

Species:  Phenylobacterium zucineum (strain HLK1)
Species code: PHEZH
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Alphaproteobacteria; Caulobacterales; Caulobacteraceae; Phenylobacterium (TaxID: 450851) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: The genus Phenylobacterium comprises 5 species, the first 4 of which were isolated from water or soil. Strain HLK1 was isolated from the human erythroleukemia cell line K562. It is a Gram-negative rod, motile with a polar flagellum that is strictly aerobic and nonfermentative. Its grows optimally at 37 degrees C between pH 6.5 and 7.5. It is a facultative intracellular organism and may have pathogenic relevance with humans and mammals, as it can infect at least HeLa cells. Unlike known intracellular pathogens, P. zucineum maintains a stable association with its host cell without apparently affecting the growth and morphology of the latter (modified from PubMed 16908113 and 18700039).
Properties: Presence of flagella: Yes
Human pathogen: not known

Statistics: Number of PHEZH entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 3838 (201 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 3637 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
