Oxynema sp. AP17 is the second distinct species of the Oxynema genus, and it differs from the first ( Oxynema thaianum ) in 16S-23S internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence, morphology, and optimal salinity. The genome size is 6.37 Mbp; 4,801 protein-coding genes, 74 tRNAs, and 5 each of the 16S, 23S, and 5S rRNAs constitute the genome.
