The Chitinophagaceae are a family of bacteria . The type genus is Chitinophaga Sangkhobol and Skerman 1981 . They belong to the Bacteroidetes department . The genome of Chitinophaga pinensis was completely analyzed in 2010.

Appearance

The cells are rods with rounded corners. Sometimes resting stages, so-called microcysts, are formed. Some species are movable by sliding. The gram test is negative. The colonies are colored yellow.

Growth and metabolism

The species are aerobic or facultatively anaerobic . The metabolism is mostly oxidative ( respiration ), in some species it can also be fermentative . They contain the menaquinone type 7. Some types can hydrolyze chitin , such as B. Chitinophaga pinensis , also the hydrolysis of cellulose is known in some species, e.g. B. Chitinophaga oryziterrae

Occurrence

The occurrence of the species is diverse. So was z. B. the species Chitinophaga skermanii isolated from the droppings of the millipede Arthrosphaera magna , Chitinophaga japonensis and Terrimonas from soils. Chitinophaga arvensicola was isolated from the moss Sphagnum . Balneola was found in sea water.

Systematics

The Chitinophagaceae family was described on the basis of 16S rRNA sequences in 2011. A selection of genera follows:
