description
Strain AMac 2203 T is a Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, DNase-negative, rod-shaped, motile bacterial species. Growth occurs optimally at 15 – 25 Ǫ C, at pH 7 – 8 and in the presence of 3 – 5 % (w / v) NaCl. Colonies are circular, smooth and beige in colour after incubation for 2 days at 20 Ǫ C on modified TYS agar. Strain AMac 2203 T can hydrolyse aesculin and possesses catalase, oxidase, esterase (C 4), esterase lipase (C 8) and leucine arylamidase enzyme activities. Additionally, the isolate can assimilate D, L- lactic acid, pyruvic acid methyl ester, acetic acid, formic acid, succinic acid, bromosuccinic acid, L- alaninamide, D- alanine, L- alanine, L- asparagine, L- aspartic acid, L- glutamic acid, L- histidine, L- leucine, L- ornithine, L- phenylalanine, L- serine, L- threonine and malic acid. The predominant fatty acids are summed feature 3 (C 16: 0 Ɯ 7 c and / or C 16: 1 Ɯ 6 c), summed feature 8 (C 18: 1 Ɯ 7 c) and C 16: 0. The predominant ubiquinone is Q- 8, and polar lipids comprise phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, diphosphatidylglycerol, an unidentified amino lipid and an unidentified lipid. The OrthoANI value between strain AMac 2203 T and O. profunda KCTC 32510 T is 77.5 %, and the genomic DNA G + C content of strain AMac 2203 T is 47.1 mol %.

materials_examined
The type strain, AMac 2203 T (= KCTC 62118 T = JCM 32207 T), was isolated from the gut of the cinereous vulture, Aegypius monachus, from faecal samples collected at the Seoul Grand Park Zoo, Republic of Korea.
