Dehalococcoidia is a class of Chloroflexota, a phylum of Bacteria. It is also known as the DHC group.[3]
The name Dehalococcoidetes is a placeholder name given by Hugenholtz and Stackebrandt, 2004, after Dehalococcoides ethenogenes, a partially described species in 1997,[4] whereas the first species fully described belonging to this class was Dehalogenimonas lykanthroporepellens by Moe et al. 2009, but no emendations to the name were made.[5][6][7]
Characteristics
Both species, Dehalococcoides ethenogenes and Dehalogenimonas lykanthroporepellens are irregular
One of the features of the members of the phylum
Gram-positive.[9]
Both species of Dehalococcoidetes stain Gram negative, but they potentially lack peptidoglycan and instead possess pseudopeptidoglycan[dubious – discuss] (S-layer) (resistant to peptidoglycan-attacking antibiotics ampicillin and vancomycin; wheat germ agglutinin does not bind nor does lysozyme work).[failed verification][4][5][10]
