Examples of "methylophilus"
A single obligate methylotroph (
methylophilus
) is known. It is Gram-negative, polarly flagellated rod capable of rapid growth with methanol. Some strains can also utilize formaldehyde or methylamines. Carbon is assimilated via the ribulose mono phosphate pathway.
A recent attempt at phylogeny classification of obligate methylotrophs puts the genus Methylobacillus along with
Methylophilus
and Methylovorus as terrestrial methylobacteria, while marine obligate methylotrophs are assigned to the genus Methylophaga. "Methylobacillus flagellatus" KT strain was found in a metropolitan sewer system, whereas "Methylobacillus pratensis" were isolated from meadow grass. The important point is that the methylotrophs are very adaptable and they can be found in diverse ecosystems.
