Description of Enterococcus sulfuresus GHA 5

Cells are Gram-stain-positive, non-flagellated, and cocci-shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, entire, and yellow-colored after incubation for 3 days on R2 A at 20℃. Positive for glucose fermentation, esculin hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, and β -galactosidase; but negative for nitrates reduction, indole production, arginine dihydrolase, urease, and cytochrome oxidase in API 20NE. D- Glucose are utilized as a sole carbon source; but not L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Strain GHA5 (= HNIBRBA274) was isolated from aquaculture water collected from a shrimp farm (34°41 ʹ 29 ʺ N, 126°22 ʹ 21 ʺ E), Haenam , Jeollanam-do, Korea. The GenBank accession number of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain GHA5 is OL742671 .
