Query: NC_017290:716092 Chlamydophila psittaci 08DC60 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Chlamydia psittaci; Chlamydia; Chlamydiaceae; Chlamydiales; Chlamydiae; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was previously called Rickettsia psittaci, Chlamydia psittaci or Ehrlichia psittaci. Usually these type of human infections occur when in close contact with infected birds (poultry workers, pet owners), although instances of person to person transmission have been found.
Subject: NC_015687:1097447 Clostridium acetobutylicum DSM 1731 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Clostridium acetobutylicum; Clostridium; Clostridiaceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This organism is a benign saccharolytic and proteolytic soil bacterium capable of producing a number of organic solvents (solventogenic bacterium) through fermentation of various organic compounds. The first strains of C. acetobutyricum were isolated by Chaim Weizman during the World War I and used to develop industrial starch-based acetone, butanol and ethanol fermentation processes.
