Near Threatened, with range contracting due to deforestation.
Lysinibacillus acetophenoni is a Gram-positive, spore-forming bacterium in the family Planococcaceae, capable of metabolizing acetophenone as a carbon source. It was isolated from industrial or contaminated soil environments and possesses enzymatic pathways for degrading aromatic organic compounds. The genus Lysinibacillus is distinguished from Bacillus by its unique cell wall diamino acid composition.
