Lineage: Tsukamurella paurometabola; Tsukamurella; Tsukamurellaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Isolation: Cases of systemic infection, usually in association with other diseases; Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Sludge, Soil. Tsukamurella paurometabola, formerly Corynebacterium paurometabolum, was isolated from from mycetomes and ovaries of bed bugs (Cimex lectularius) and has also been found in soil and sludge. This organism has been isolated from cases of systemic infection, usually in association with other diseases.
Subject: NC_007907:2306561 Desulfitobacterium hafniense Y51, complete genome
Lineage: Desulfitobacterium hafniense; Desulfitobacterium; Peptococcaceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from soil contaminated with tetrachloroethene (PCE) in Japan. It can efficiently dehalogenate PCEs via trichloroethene (TCE) to cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-1,2-DCE). It can also dehalogenase tetra-, penta-, and hexachloroethanes. 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.
