A betaproteobacterial chemolithotrophic ammonia-oxidizing bacterium designated APG5 was isolated from supralittoral sand of the Edmonds City Beach, WA, USA. Growth was observed at 10-35 °C (optimum, 30 °C), pH 5-9 (optimum, pH 8) and ammonia concentrations as high as 100 mM (optimum, 1-30 mM NHCl). The strain grows optimally in a freshwater medium but tolerates up to 400 mM NaCl. It is most closely related to 'Nitrosomonas ureae' (96.7% 16S rRNA and 92.4% amoA sequence identity). The 3.75-Mbp of AGP5 draft genome contained a single rRNA operon and all necessary tRNA genes and has the lowest G+C content (43.5%) when compared to the previously reported genomes of reference strains in cluster 6 Nitrosomonas. Based on an average nucleotide identity of 82% with its closest relative ('N. ureae' Nm10) and the suggested species boundary of 95-96%, a new species Nitrosomonas supralitoralis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Nitrosomonas supralitoralis is APG5 (= NCIMB 14870 = ATCC TSD-116).
一种β变形菌化能自养氨氧化细菌，被命名为 APG5，是从美国华盛顿州埃德蒙兹市海滩的潮间带沙滩中分离出来的。该菌在 10-35°C（最佳温度为 30°C）、pH5-9（最佳 pH8）和氨浓度高达 100mM（最佳浓度为 1-30mM NHCl）的条件下可以生长。该菌株在淡水培养基中生长最佳，但可耐受高达 400mM 的 NaCl。它与“尿素亚硝化单胞菌”（16S rRNA 和 amoA 序列的同源性分别为 96.7%和 92.4%）最为密切相关。APG5 草案基因组的 375-Mbp 仅包含一个 rRNA 操纵子和所有必需的 tRNA 基因，与第 6 氮单胞菌群中参考菌株的先前报道基因组相比，其 G+C 含量最低（43.5%）。根据与最接近的亲缘种（“尿素亚硝化单胞菌”Nm10）的平均核苷酸同一性为 82%，以及建议的物种边界为 95-96%，提议建立一个新的物种：Nitrosomonas supralitoralis sp. nov.。Nitrosomonas supralitoralis 的模式菌株为 APG5（=NCIMB 14870=ATCC TSD-116）。
