Query: NS_000195:1257834 Candidatus Cloacamonas acidaminovorans
Lineage: Cloacimonas acidaminovorans; Cloacimonas; ; ; unclassified Bacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Syntrophic bacterium that is present in many anaerobic digesters. The sludge sample was obtained from an anaerobic mesophilic digester (7,000 m3) at the Evry wastewater treatment plant (250,000 population equivalents), located about 35 km south of Paris, France.
Subject: NC_008254:3246306 Mesorhizobium sp. BNC1, complete genome
Lineage: Chelativorans; Chelativorans; Phyllobacteriaceae; Rhizobiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was isolated from a mixed-culture enriched from sewage using the chelating agent EDTA (binds divalent cations - ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid) as the sole carbon and nitrogen source. EDTA is often found at toxic waste sites where it is bound to metals and radionuclides, which affects bioremediation efforts. This bacterium is capable of EDTA degradation by itself.
