Query: NC_016610:3297080 Tannerella forsythia ATCC 43037 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Tannerella forsythia; Tannerella; Porphyromonadaceae; Bacteroidales; Bacteroidetes; Bacteria

General Information: This organism is a key agent in the progression of periodontal disease and is involved in bone loss and loss of attachment of teeth. The pathogenic factors involved in this are poorly understood. Unlike other periodontal organism such as Porphyromonas gingivalis and Prevotella intermedia, this organism is difficult to culture and the prevalence of the organism in periodontal disease may be underestimated. This organism is synergistic with Porphyromonas gingivalis, and the presence of both accelerates progression of the disease.

Subject: NC_008577:44184 Shewanella sp. ANA-3 chromosome 1, complete sequence

Lineage: Shewanella; Shewanella; Shewanellaceae; Alteromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: This strain was isolated from an arsenate treated wood pier that was in a brackish estuary (Eel Pond) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. It is capable of converting As(V) to arsenite and may be used in bioremediation of contaminated sites.
