Physio-Biochemical Characterization and 16S rRNA Sequencing of Thermophilic Geobacillus sp. stain DB2 from Dibekli Hot Spring, Turkey

Year 2017, Volume: 7 Issue: 1, 63 - 71, 31.03.2017

Abstract

Geothermal sites are habitat for thermophilic microorganisms. In this study, a novel aerobic, rod
shaped, motile and Gram-positive thermophilic bacterium DB2 was isolated from the hot water in Dibekli in
the town of Diyadin in Turkey and it was identifed by morphological, physiological, biochemical tests and 16S
rRNA gene sequencing. Optimal cultivation was obtained at pH 6.0–6.5 and 60
oC. Strain DB2 was positive for
catalase activity, nitrate reduction, Methyl red test and starch hydrolysis, while it was negative for oxidase, urease,
gelatine and casein hydrolysis. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that isolate DB2
was most closely related to
Geobacillus subterraneus subsp. aromaticivorans Ge1(T) with a 98.97% sequence
similarity. This novel strain can be used in biotechnological application.
