Lineage: Streptomyces venezuelae; Streptomyces; Streptomycetaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Streptomyces venezuelae strain ATCC 10712, isolated from soil in Caracas, Venezuela in about 1948, grows in a diffuse and homogenous manner in a variety of liquid media, and in some sporulates to near completion. This organism produces a number of secondary metabolites which may be of industrial or pharmaceutical interest. Soil actinomycete.
Subject: NC_003869:45560 Thermoanaerobacter tengcongensis MB4, complete genome
Lineage: Caldanaerobacter subterraneus; Caldanaerobacter; Thermoanaerobacteraceae; Thermoanaerobacterales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was originally isolated from a hot spring in Tengcong, China, and is the type strain for the species. Genomic analysis indicates it is similar to Bacillus halodurans and that it has one of the most biased leading strand distribution of genes. Although the organism has not been observed to be motile or to sporulate, it does contain genes for both functions. The bacterium produces acetate and ethanol from glucose and cannot degrade xylan and cellulose.
