Query: NC_002977:1600350 Methylococcus capsulatus str. Bath, complete genome

Lineage: Methylococcus capsulatus; Methylococcus; Methylococcaceae; Methylococcales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Methane-utilizing bacterium. This organism is a methanotroph, and can utilize methane (methanol) as the sole carbon and energy source through the use of monooxygenases. The Methylococci are environmentally important since they are involved in oxidation of methane, a greenhouse gas, and may also be used for bioremediation of polluted sites.

Subject: NC_019940:1 Thioflavicoccus mobilis 8321 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Thioflavicoccus mobilis; Thioflavicoccus; Chromatiaceae; Chromatiales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: Country: USA; Environment: Marsh, Mat; Isolation: flat, laminated microbial mat. This organism is a marine bacterium which is an obligate phototrophic organism. Under anoxic conditions this organism uses hydrogen sulfide and sulfur as electron donors and accumulates sulfur globules inside the cell.
