Abstract
Cy.clo.na.tro’num. Gr. masc. n. kyklos, a circle; N.L.neut. n. natron, soda; N.L. neut. n. Cyclonatronum,circle-shaped and soda-loving.
The genus Cyclonatronum is a member of theclass Rhodothermia of the phylum Bacteroidota. Itincludes obligately aerobic organoheterotrophs that mostly utilize proteins and peptides, and possess an active sodium-pumping proteorhodopsin. The genus currently includes a single species, Cyclonatronum proteinivorum, which is represented by a mesophilic, moderately salt-tolerant, chloride-independent, and obligate alkaliphile found in saline soda lakes in Central Asia.
DNA G +C content (mol%): 51.5 (genome sequence).
Type species: Cyclonatronum proteinivorum Zhilina et al. 2023, VL211.
