Lineage: Methanosphaera stadtmanae; Methanosphaera; Methanobacteriaceae; Methanobacteriales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea
General Information: Isolated from human feces. Methanogen that uses methanol and hydrogen to produce methane. This organism produces methane from methanol and hydrogen unlike most methanogens that use carbon dioxide and hydrogen.
Subject: NC_009943:677324 Candidatus Desulfococcus oleovorans Hxd3, complete genome
Lineage: Desulfococcus oleovorans; Desulfococcus; Desulfobacteraceae; Desulfobacterales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: An alkane-degrading sulfate-reducing Gram-negative bacterium isolated from the saline water phase of an oil-water separator from a northern German oil field. Desulfococcus oleovorans, originally designated Desulfobacterium oleovorans, was isolated using hexadecane as a carbon source and has been used to determine the mechanism of anaerobic hydrocarbon degradation.
