Proteomes · Corynebacterium glutamicum (strain ATCC 13032 / DSM 20300 / JCM 1318 / BCRC 11384 / CCUG 27702 / LMG 3730 / NBRC 12168 / NCIMB 10025 / NRRL B-2784 / 534)

Description

Bacteria from the genus Corynebacterium are Gram-positive, nonmotile rods which include both pathogenic and non-pathogenic species that can live in a large variety of habitats. In addition to being animal and human pathogens, they have been isolated from soil, plant material, waste water, and dairy products. Corynebacterium glutamicum was discovered in the 1950s in Japan as a natural producer of glutamic acid. Like Mycobacteria, Corynebacteria have an unusual outer membrane approximately 8nm thick, despite being considered Gram-positive. The outer membrane and the mycolic acid-arabinoglactan-peptidoglycan polymer form the cell wall, which constitutes an efficient permeability barrier in conjunction with the cell inner membrane. This is the type strain for the species.
