<h2 id="taxonomy">Taxonomy</h2> <p>The genus <i>Corynebacterium</i> was created by Lehmann and Neumann in 1896 as a <a href="/facts/Taxonomy_(biology)/Qkg8wuyw">taxonomic</a> group to contain the bacterial rods responsible for causing diphtheria. The genus was defined based on <a href="/facts/Morphology_(biology)/Nl3B0myy">morphological</a> characteristics. Based on studies of <a href="/facts/16S_rRNA/a9DB9AC8">16S rRNA</a>, they have been grouped into the subdivision of Gram-positive <a href="/facts/Eubacteria/wC8xSCsU">Eubacteria</a> with high <a href="/facts/Guanine/hoTSpz0x">G</a>:<a href="/facts/Cytosine/JW20j33u">C</a> content, with close phylogenetic relationships to <i><a href="/facts/Arthrobacter/jImAwjAd">Arthrobacter</a></i>, <i><a href="/facts/Mycobacterium/mLn82Axu">Mycobacterium</a></i>, <i><a href="/facts/Nocardia/DChBVQYq">Nocardia</a></i>, and <i><a href="/facts/Streptomyces/xupjSFmJ">Streptomyces</a></i>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a> </p><p>The term comes from <a href="/facts/Greek_language/pzDd6eIz">Greek</a> κορύνη, <i><i>korýnē</i></i> 'club, mace, staff, knobby plant bud or shoot'<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> and βακτήριον, <i><i>baktḗrion</i></i> 'little rod'.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a> The term "diphtheroids" is used to represent corynebacteria that are non<a href="/facts/Pathogenic/axMXtV1M">pathogenic</a>; for example, <i><a href="/facts/Corynebacterium_diphtheriae/JPsf88HV">C. diphtheriae</a></i> would be excluded.

Two examples of CSIs are a two-amino-acid insertion in a conserved region of the enzyme <a href="/facts/Decaprenyl-phosphate_phosphoribosyltransferase/MXmWR5c4">phosphoribose diphosphate:decaprenyl-phosphate phosphoribosyltransferase</a> and a three-amino-acid insertion in <a href="/facts/Acetate_kinase/mnxdWdAz">acetate kinase</a>, both of which are found only in <i>Corynebacterium</i> species. Both of these indels serve as <a href="/facts/Genetic_marker/pRshdIBz">molecular markers</a> for species of the genus <i>Corynebacterium</i>. Additionally, 16 conserved signature proteins, which are uniquely found in <i>Corynebacterium</i> species, have been identified. Three of these have homologs found in the genus <i><a href="/facts/Dietzia/Nm5eSX0E">Dietzia</a></i>, which is believed to be the closest related genus to <i>Corynebacterium</i>. In phylogenetic trees based on concatenated protein sequences or 16S rRNA, the genus <i>Corynebacterium</i> forms a distinct clade, within which is a distinct subclade, cluster I. The cluster is made up of the species <i>C. diphtheriae, C. pseudotuberculosis, C. ulcerans, C. aurimucosum, C. glutamicum,</i> and <i>C. efficiens</i>. This cluster is distinguished by several conserved signature indels, such as a two-amino-acid insertion in LepA and a seven- or eight-amino-acid insertions in RpoC. Also, 21 conserved signature proteins are found only in members of cluster I. Another cluster has been proposed, consisting of <i>C. jeikeium</i> and <i>C. urealyticum</i>, which is supported by the presence of 19 distinct conserved signature proteins which are unique to these two species.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11"><sup>11</sup></a> Corynebacteria have a high <a href="/facts/GC_content/nRoVl7gw">G+C content</a> ranging from 46-74 mol%.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12"><sup>12</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="characteristics">Characteristics</h2> <p>The principal features of the genus <i>Corynebacterium</i> were described by Collins and Cummins, for Coryn Taylor in 1986.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13"><sup>13</sup></a> They are gram-positive, <a href="/facts/Catalase/CcJ9r5KG">catalase</a>-positive, non-<a href="/facts/Spore/6qDRdcrs">spore</a>-forming, non-<a href="/facts/Motility/Df5BECHL">motile</a>, rod-shaped bacteria that are straight or slightly curved.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14"><sup>14</sup></a> <a href="/facts/Metachromatic_granules/n37c5EbA">Metachromatic granules</a> are usually present representing stored phosphate regions.

Unwanted side reactions such as threonine and asparagine production can occur if a buildup of intermediates occurs, so scientists have developed mutant strains of<i> C. glutamicum</i> through PCR engineering and chemical knockouts to ensure production of side-reaction enzymes are limited. Many genetic manipulations conducted in industry are by traditional cross-over methods or inhibition of transcriptional activators.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:58" href="#fn:58"><sup>58</sup></a> </p><p>Expression of functionally active human <a href="/facts/Epidermal_growth_factor/CpyH5tYs">epidermal growth factor</a> has been brought about in <i>C. glutamicum</i>,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:59" href="#fn:59"><sup>59</sup></a> thus demonstrating a potential for industrial-scale production of human proteins.
