Query: NC_008508:481000 Leptospira borgpetersenii serovar Hardjo-bovis L550 chromosome 1,
Lineage: Leptospira borgpetersenii; Leptospira; Leptospiraceae; Spirochaetales; Spirochaetes; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from a human clinical sample. Bacterial pathogens of cattle that cause zoonotic infections in humans. This organism is a bacterial pathogen of cattle. This organism colonizes in the kidney and reproductive tracts of infected animals. There is also a risk of zoonotic infections in humans, especially those who work with cattle.
Subject: NC_009662:222964 Nitratiruptor sp. SB155-2, complete genome
Lineage: Nitratiruptor; Nitratiruptor; Nautiliaceae; Nautiliales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent in the Iheya North field in the Mid-Okinawa Trough, Japan as part of a larger diversity study. This rod-shaped bacterium grows chemolithoautotrophically and can utilize a wide spectrum of electron donors and acceptors (i.e. hydrogen, sulfur compounds, nitrate and oxygen). It can occupy different ecological niches, and its metabolic versatility probably enables it to adapt to the geochemical variability in deep-sea hydrothermal environments.
