Query: NC_003869:45560 Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis MB4, complete genome

Lineage: Caldanaerobacter subterraneus; Caldanaerobacter; Thermoanaerobacteraceae; Thermoanaerobacterales; Firmicutes; Bacteria

General Information: This organism was originally isolated from a hot spring in Tengcong, China, and is the type strain for the species. Genomic analysis indicates it is similar to Bacillus halodurans and that it has one of the most biased leading strand distribution of genes. Although the organism has not been observed to be motile or to sporulate, it does contain genes for both functions. The bacterium produces acetate and ethanol from glucose and cannot degrade xylan and cellulose.

Subject: NC_015185:485866 Desulfurobacterium thermolithotrophum DSM 11699 chromosome,

Lineage: Desulfurobacterium thermolithotrophum; Desulfurobacterium; Desulfurobacteriaceae; Desulfurobacteriales; Aquificae; Bacteria

General Information: Environment: Marine; Isolation: Deep-sea hydrothermal vent chimney; Temp: Thermophile; Temp: 70C; Country: Atlantic Ocean: Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This thermophilic, anaerobic, strictly autotrophic, sulfur-reducing bacteriumwas isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal chimney sample collected at the mid-Atlantic ridge.
