A photoautotrophic cyanobacterium, Rubidibacter lacunae was reported in 2008 for the first time. The type strain, KORDI 51-2(T), was isolated from seawater of Chuuk lagoon located in a tropical area. Although it belonged to a clade exclusively comprised of extremely halotolerant strains by phylogenetic analyses, R. lacunae is known to be incapable of growth at high salt concentration over 10%. Here we report the main features of the genome of R. lacunae strain KORDI 51-2(T). The genome of R. lacunae contains a gene cluster for phosphonate utilization encoding three transporters, one regulator and eight C-P lyase subunits.
一种光合自养蓝细菌——腔隙红杆菌（Rubidibacter lacunae）于2008年首次被报道。模式菌株KORDI 51-2(T)是从位于热带地区的楚克泻湖海水中分离得到的。尽管通过系统发育分析它属于一个仅由极端耐盐菌株组成的进化枝，但已知腔隙红杆菌在盐浓度超过10%时无法生长。在此，我们报道腔隙红杆菌菌株KORDI 51-2(T)基因组的主要特征。腔隙红杆菌的基因组包含一个用于利用膦酸盐的基因簇，该基因簇编码三个转运蛋白、一个调节蛋白和八个C-P裂解酶亚基。
