HAMAP: Amoebophilus asiaticus (strain 5a2) complete proteome

General information

Species:  Amoebophilus asiaticus (strain 5a2)
Species code: AMOA5
Taxonomy: Bacteria; Bacteroidetes; Candidatus Amoebophilus (TaxID: 452471) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Candidatus Amoebophilus asiaticus (strain 5a2) is an obligate endosymbiont found in Acanthamoeba sp. TUMSJ-321. This bacterial strain could neither be maintained outside its original host nor transferred to other amoebae. This organism is a member of the highly diverse bacterial phylum Bacteroidetes which includes the endosymbiont lineages represented by the sister taxa Candidatus A. asiaticus and Candidatus Cardinium hertigii, a symbiont of arthropods.
Properties: Presence of flagella: No
Human pathogen: No
Interaction: Animal endosymbiont in Acanthamoeba sp. TUMSJ-321 (intracellular obligate)
Number of membranes: 2
Number of inteins:0
Statistics: Number of AMOA5 entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 1253 (112 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 1141 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
