Abstract
Although much research has focused on various bioactive substances in starfish, research on microorganisms isolated from starfish is lacking as compared with other natural products. In this study, we investigated bacterial communities in the gut of red starfish (Certonardoa semiregularis) in Jeju Island. In total, 103 bacterial strains were isolated using marine agar and R2A medium. The isolated strains were analyzed and identified using the 16S rRNA gene sequence. Based on an analysis of this gene sequence, the 103 isolated bacteria were classified into four major groups: Proteobacteria (93%: Alpha-proteobacteria, 24.8%; Beta-proteobacteria, 4%; Gammaproteobacteria, 65%) Bacteroidetes (4%), Actinobacteria (2%), and Firmicutes (1%). In addition, the isolates were divided into seven classes (Actinobacteria, Flavobacteria, Bacilli, Sphingobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, Betaproteobacteria, and Gammaproteobacteria), 15 orders, 19 families, and 24 genera. A phylogenetic analysis revealed two strains, Lysobacter sp. and Pedobacter sp., with similarity of 97.55% and 97.58%, respectively. As the similarity in the 16S rRNA gene sequence was 98% or less compared to previously identified bacteria, the two strains may possibly be classified as a new genus or species. We suggest that additional studies, including biochemical and morphological tests, should be performed to identify the new candidate strains.
