Lineage: Dictyoglomus thermophilum; Dictyoglomus; Dictyoglomaceae; Dictyoglomales; Dictyoglomi; Bacteria
General Information: Dictyoglomus thermophilum was isolated from a slightly alkaline hot spring (Tsuetae Hot Spring) in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. It is an extremely thermophilic, chemoorganotrophic bacterium.
Subject: NC_011653:1574415 Thermosipho africanus TCF52B, complete genome
Lineage: Thermosipho africanus; Thermosipho; Thermotogaceae; Thermotogales; Thermotogae; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was isolated from the Troll oil formation in the North Sea. Thermosipho africanus, a member of the Thermotogales, has the characteristic morphology of one or more cells contained in a sheath-like envelope which extends beyond the cell wall. Preliminary sequencing of Thermotogales genomes has identified extensive horizontal gene transfer between these organisms and the Archaea. Thermosipho africanus has been isolated from marine hydrothermal systems and oil reservoir production waters.
