BAA-1116

Download Genome Learn about the ATCC Genome Portal
Vibrio campbellii strain BB120 is a whole-genome sequenced bacterium isolated from a marine source. It is one of several strains (ATCC BAA-1116 through ATCC BAA-1121) included in a "quorum sensing reporter kit" (ATCC MP-6) developed by the depositor. This wild type strain responds to both AI-1 and AI-2 autoinducers.

Documentation

ATCC determines the biosafety level of a material based on our risk assessment as guided by the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is your responsibility to understand the hazards associated with the material per your organization’s policies and procedures as well as any other applicable regulations as enforced by your local or national agencies.

ATCC highly recommends that appropriate personal protective equipment is always used when handling vials. For cultures that require storage in liquid nitrogen, it is important to note that some vials may leak when submersed in liquid nitrogen and will slowly fill with liquid nitrogen. Upon thawing, the conversion of the liquid nitrogen back to its gas phase may result in the vial exploding or blowing off its cap with dangerous force creating flying debris. Unless necessary, ATCC recommends that these cultures be stored in the vapor phase of liquid nitrogen rather than submersed in liquid nitrogen.

Characteristics

Comments
This is one of several strains (ATCC BAA-1116 through ATCC BAA-1121) included in a "quorum sensing reporter kit" developed by the depositor. When using this strain as part of the quorum sensing kit or in any other bioluminescent assays, Autoinducer Bioassay medium should be used (see product information sheet).
Genome sequenced strain

Vibrio harveyi BAA-1116 (and its derived mutants in panel MP-6) has been reclassified as Vibrio campbellii based on microarray comparative genome hybridization and multilocus sequence analysis. RefLin B, et al. Comparative genomic analyses identify the Vibrio harveyi genome sequenced strains BAA-1116 and HY01 as Vibrio campbellii. Environ. Microbiol. Rep. 2(1): 81-89, 2010. PubMed: 20686623

Handling procedure
  1. Open vial according to enclosed instructions.
  2. Using a single tube of #2 broth (5 to 6 mL), withdraw approximately 0.5 to 1.0 mL with a Pasteur or 1.0 mL pipette. Rehydrate the entire pellet.
  3. Aseptically transfer this aliquot back into the broth tube. Mix well.
  4. Use several drops of the suspension to inoculate a #2 agar slant and/or plate.
  5. Incubate the tubes and plate at 30°C for 24 hours.
Handling notes

When using this strain as part of the "quorum sensing kit" or in any other bioluminescent assays, #2746 media should be used. Marine media contains boric acid and may cause otherwise bioluminescent-negative strains to luminesce, as boron is a key element in autoinducer-2.

This strain exhibits bioluminescence in #2746 media.
This is the wild-type strain for the quorum sensing reporter kit.
Purified genomic DNA of this strain is available as ATCC® BAA-1116D-5™.
Additional information on this culture is available on the ATCC® web site at www.atcc.org.
