Gene database of Alteromonas macleodii ATCC 27126

Alteromonas macleodii is a Gram-negative bacilli bacterium that thrives under oxygenated environment at mesophilic temperatures. A marine bacterium without motility, the species has since attracted much attention for its role in the marine ecosystem, particularly with regards to metabolic exchanges with other microorganisms in the aquatic environment. Much remains to be known about this marine bacterium, and this work sought to provide fundamental information of A. macleodii ATCC 27126 genetic repertoire by parsing the annotated genome sequence of the bacterium downloaded from Genbank. Comprising gene name, gene function, and gene sequence of all genes in the genome of A. macleodii, the resource should be useful for understanding fundamental processes available in the bacterium, and help us contemplate the likely role of the bacterium in the marine environment.
