Query: NC_013222:3060482 Robiginitalea biformata HTCC2501, complete genome
Lineage: Robiginitalea biformata; Robiginitalea; Flavobacteriaceae; Flavobacteriales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria
General Information: Robiginitalea biformata was isolated from seawater taken at a depth of 10 meters from the Sargasso Sea (Atlantic Ocean). Although a member of the Flavobacteriaceae, the DNA G+C content of this organism is much higher than for other members of this family.
Subject: NC_002977:1198438 Methylococcus capsulatus str. Bath, complete genome
Lineage: Methylococcus capsulatus; Methylococcus; Methylococcaceae; Methylococcales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Methane-utilizing bacterium. This organism is a methanotroph, and can utilize methane (methanol) as the sole carbon and energy source through the use of monooxygenases. The Methylococci are environmentally important since they are involved in oxidation of methane, a greenhouse gas, and may also be used for bioremediation of polluted sites.
