Budviciaceae Adeolu et al. 2016
General information
Description and emendation
The family Budviciaceae contains the type genus Budvicia and the genera Leminorella and Pragia. Members are catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, and negative for indole, arginine dihydrolase, orthinine decarboxylase, and lysine decarboxylase. These bacteria are capable of producing hydrogen disulfide and reducing nitrate, but are incapable of growing on KCN media. Members of the family Budviciaceae form a distinct monophyletic cluster in genome- and multi-gene-based phylogenetic trees and can be distinguished from all other bacteria by nine conserved signature indels in the proteins bifunctional protein-disulfide isomerise/oxidoreductase DsbC, L-methionine/branched chain amino acid transporter, D-alanine-D-alanine ligase, and hypothetical proteins.
