Query: NC_013118:1109610 Brucella microti CCM 4915 chromosome 2, complete genome Lineage: Brucella microti; Brucella; Brucellaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria General Information: Brucella microti was isolated in 2000 from systemically infected voles in South Moravia, Czech Republic and has been more recently isolated from foxes and apparently free-living in soil in Czech soil. The organism is characterized by rapid growth on standard media and high metabolic activity, which is atypical for Brucella.

General Information: Isolated from Lake Gabara in Egypt. Extreme haloalkaliphilic archeon. Natronomonas pharaonis is able to survive at high salt and pH conditions which results in limited nitrogen availability through ammonium. In order to compensate for this, Natronomonas pharaonis has developed three systems to promote nitrogen assimilation: direct uptake of ammonia, uptake of nitrate, and uptake of urea. Another problem with high pH environments is the use of a proton gradient for the generation of ATP, which other alkaliphiles have adapted to by substitution of sodium ions for protons. However, this organism utilizes protons for ATP generation as determined by experimental data.
