Abstract:
Acinetobacter sp. strain Tol 5 is a nonpathogenic Gram-negative bacterium with biotechnological and environmental applications. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Acinetobacter sp. strain Tol 5, which has a genome size of 4,799,506 bp and a G+C content of 38.1%.

Genomic DNA in Prokaryotes
45.6K
The genome of most prokaryotic organisms consists of double-stranded DNA organized into one circular chromosome in a region of cytoplasm called the nucleoid. The chromosome is tightly wound, or supercoiled, for efficient storage. Prokaryotes also contain other circular pieces of DNA called plasmids. These plasmids are smaller than the chromosome and often carry genes that confer adaptive functions, such as antibiotic resistance.

Bacterial Phylum Tenericutes
181
The phylum Tenericutes, which includes the single class Mollicutes, comprises bacteria that lack cell walls. The term "Mollicutes" derives from the Latin word mollis, meaning "soft." These organisms are among the smallest known and are commonly referred to as mycoplasmas due to the prominence of the genus Mycoplasma, which includes well-known human pathogens. Despite their inability to stain gram-positively (a result of their lack of cell walls), mycoplasmas are phylogenetically related to the...
