Genomic and phenotypic analyses of Carnobacterium jeotgali strain MS3(T), a lactate-producing candidate biopreservative bacterium isolated from salt-fermented shrimp.

Carnobacterium jeotgali strain MS3(T) was isolated from traditionally fermented Korean shrimp produced with bay salt. The bacterium belongs to the family Carnobacteriaceae, produces lactic acid and contains gene clusters involved in the production of lactate, butyrate, aromatic compounds and exopolysaccharides. Carnobacterium jeotgali strain MS3(T) was characterized through extensive comparison of the virulence potential, genomic relatedness and sequence similarities of its genome with the genomes of other Carnobacteria and lactic acid bacteria. In addition, links between predicted functions of genes and phenotypic characteristics, such as antibiotic resistance and lactate and butyrate production, were extensively evaluated. Genomic and phenotypic analyses of strain MS3(T) revealed promising features, including minimal virulence genes and lactate production, which make this bacterium a desirable candidate for exploitation by the fermented food industry.
