Query: NC_008212:61567 Haloquadratum walsbyi DSM 16790, complete genome
Lineage: Haloquadratum walsbyi; Haloquadratum; Halobacteriaceae; Halobacteriales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea
General Information: A uniquely square archaeon. This hyperhalophile is of specific interest because of its unique square shape and extraordinarily large size (40m x 40m). Its culture conditions were optimized in 2004.
Subject: NC_014387:1528000 Butyrivibrio proteoclasticus B316 chromosome 1, complete genome
Lineage: Butyrivibrio proteoclasticus; Butyrivibrio; Lachnospiraceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Butyrivibrio proteoclasticus, formerly Clostridium proteoclasticum, was isolated from rumen contents of a cow. This organism is highly proteolytic and therefore probably involved in the degradation of proteins in the rumen.
