Actinobacteria / Actinobacteria / Micrococcales / Bogoriellaceae

The family Bogoriellaceae is a member of the order Micrococcales and currently accommodates the genera Bogoriella, Georgenia, and Oceanitalea. Colonies are circular, convex, and vary in their color from white to yellow. Cells are irregular rods, cocci, and occasionally filaments, occur singly, in pairs, or in small clusters. A rod-coccus growth cycle may be expressed. Gram-stain-positive. Nonsporeforming. Nonmotile or motile. Aerobic to microaerobic or facultatively anaerobic. Oxidase-positive or -negative; catalase-positive. The characteristic diamino acid in the peptidoglycan is l-lysine that corresponds to the peptidoglycan type A4α. The major menaquinone is MK-8(H₄). The polar lipids typically comprise diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol; phosphatidylinositol or phosphatidylinositol mannoside, and unidentified phospholipids or glycolipids may additionally be present. The cellular fatty acid profiles are dominated by iso- and anteiso-branched-chain acids and minor amounts of saturated straight-chain acids. Mycolic acids are absent. The genomic DNA G+C content is 70 to 73 mol%.
