Lineage: Shewanella woodyi; Shewanella; Shewanellaceae; Alteromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This luminous species was isolated from squid ink and seawater from depths of 200 to 300 m in the Alboran Sea. This respiratory (nonfermentive) organism is able to use nitrate or nitrite as a terminal electron acceptor. This organism is motile via a single polar flagellum.
Subject: NC_011830:3369282 Desulfitobacterium hafniense DCB-2, complete genome
Lineage: Desulfitobacterium hafniense; Desulfitobacterium; Peptococcaceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This is the type strain for this species and has been isolated from municipal sludge, Denmark. It can dechlorinate chlorinated phenolic compounds such as PCBs and some pesticides. Hydrocarbon dehalogenator. This organism can dehalogenate a variety of hydrocarbons and can utilize fumarate, sulfite, and thiosulfate (but not thiousulfate) as terminal electron acceptors. Some important pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) may be degraded by this organism. Gram-positive, metal-reducing, dehalorespiring.
