Subject: NC_008701:1582839 Pyrobaculum islandicum DSM 4184, complete genome
Lineage: Pyrobaculum islandicum; Pyrobaculum; Thermoproteaceae; Thermoproteales; Crenarchaeota; Archaea
General Information: Hyperthermophilic anaerobe. Pyrobaculum islandicum was isolated from water from a geothermal power plant in Iceland. This organism is able to grow lithotrophically and organotrophically using hydrogen or organic matter as the electron donors and sulfur, sulfite, and thiosulfate as electron acceptors.
