Query: NC_013162:1364888 Capnocytophaga ochracea DSM 7271, complete genome Lineage: Capnocytophaga ochracea; Capnocytophaga; Flavobacteriaceae; Flavobacteriales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria General Information: Capnocytophaga ochracea DSM 7271 was isolated from the human oral cavity. This organism causes periodontal disease and can also be an opportunistic pathogens, causing septicemia, peritonitis, endocarditis and conjunctivitis in susceptible patients. These are Gram-negative, anaerobic gliding bacteria isolated from normal human supragingival plaque and from periodontal lesions.

General Information: This strain was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent in the Iheya North field in the Mid-Okinawa Trough, Japan as part of a larger diversity study. This rod-shaped bacterium grows chemolithoautotrophically and can utilize a wide spectrum of electron donors and acceptors (i.e. hydrogen, sulfur compounds, nitrate and oxygen). It can occupy different ecological niches, and its metabolic versatility probably enables it to adapt to the geochemical variability in deep-sea hydrothermal environments.
