Species code:	AMOA5
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Bacteroidetes; Candidatus Amoebophilus (TaxID: 452471) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Candidatus Amoebophilus asiaticus (strain 5a2) is an obligate endosymbiont found in Acanthamoeba sp. TUMSJ-321. This bacterial strain could neither be maintained outside its original host nor transferred to other amoebae. This organism is a member of the highly diverse bacterial phylum Bacteroidetes which includes the endosymbiont lineages represented by the sister taxa Candidatus A. asiaticus and Candidatus Cardinium hertigii, a symbiont of arthropods.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: Animal endosymbiont in Acanthamoeba sp. TUMSJ-321 (intracellular obligate) Number of membranes: 1 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of AMOA5 entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 1244 (1 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 1243 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)

Genome structure:	Chromosome EMBL accession number CP001102 (circular; 1,884,364 bp) (download entry) (download Genome Reviews).
