Query: NC_014219:25845 Bacillus selenitireducens MLS10 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Bacillus selenitireducens; Bacillus; Bacillaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria

General Information: Isolation: Anoxic muds of Mono Lake California; Country: USA; Temp: Mesophile; Habitat: Fresh water. Bacillus selenitireducens MLS-10 was isolated from alkaline, hypersaline, arsenic-rich mud from Mono Lake, California. This organism can reduce arsenate, selenate, and selenite, making it a potential bioremediation agent. Bacillus selenitireducens produces intracellular and extracellular granules of elemental selenium when grown on selenite. The respiratory arsenate reductase has been purified, and is able to function at high pH and alkalinity.

Subject: NC_013156:182896 Methanocaldococcus fervens AG86, complete genome

Lineage: Methanocaldococcus fervens; Methanocaldococcus; Methanocaldococcaceae; Methanococcales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea

General Information: Isolation: Deep-sea hydrothermal chimney sample; Temp: Thermophile; Temp: 49 - 89C; Habitat: Deep sea, Marine. Hyperthermophilic methanogen. Methanocaldococcus fervens was isolated from a core sample from a deep sea hydrothermal vent in the Guayamas Basin of the Gulf of California.
