General Information: Hyperthermophilic acidophilic sulfur-metabolizing archeon. This organism is an obligate aerobic, hyperthermophilic, acidophilic, sulfur-metabolizing archeon. Growth occurs between 50 and 87 degrees C with optimal growth at 85 degrees C and a pH of 2-4.5.

Subject: NC_009033:996616 Staphylothermus marinus F1, complete genome

Lineage: Staphylothermus marinus; Staphylothermus; Desulfurococcaceae; Desulfurococcales; Crenarchaeota; Archaea

General Information: Hyperthermophilic archaeon. This organism was isolated from hydrothermal marine sediment from Vulcano Island in Italy. Staphylothermus marinus is heterotrophic and requires sulfur, which is reduced to H2S, for growth.
