Query: NC_014624:2996377 Eubacterium limosum KIST612 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Eubacterium limosum; Eubacterium; Eubacteriaceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Eubacterium limosum KIST612 is an acetogenic bacterium isolated from an anaerobic digester and has a high growth rate on synthesis gas (CO; carbon monoxide) using it as a sole energy source. This organism produces acetate as well as butyrate and ethanol as fermentation products from syngas. Therefore, E. limosum KIST612 has been considered for a model strain for bioenergy production from syngas (obtained from biomass).
Subject: NC_014814:3364336 Mycobacterium sp. Spyr1 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Mycobacterium gilvum Spyr1; Mycobacterium; Mycobacteriaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Country: Greece; Environment: Creosote-contaminated soil, Soil; Temp: Mesophile; Isolation: creosote contaminated soil; Country:Greece: near Ioannina, Epirus. Like other closely related Actinomycetales, such as Nocardia and Corynebacterium, mycobacteria have unusually high genomic DNA GC content and are capable of producing mycolic acids as major components of their cell wall. These organism are common in soil and freshwater.
