Query: NC_009655:866281 Actinobacillus succinogenes 130Z chromosome, complete genome Lineage: Actinobacillus succinogenes; Actinobacillus; Pasteurellaceae; Pasteurellales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria General Information: Succinate-producing bacterium. Originally isolated from bovine rumen, this species is one of the most promising succinate producers known. It can utilize a variety of sugars and produce a very high volume of succinate, which is used by the pharmaceutical industry. This organism has been improved over time by growth on fermentable carbon and sodium monofluoroacetate and selection of fluoroacetate-resistant mutants which have a higher succinate yield. The succinate yield has also been improved via a metabolic engineering approach, by cloning and overproducing the PEP-carboxykinase gene which catalyzes the addition of carbon dioxide to PEP to form oxalacetate and can work physiologically in both directions

General Information: This strain was isolated from the North Sea near Aberdeen, United Kingdom. Iron-reducing marine bacterium. This genus includes species that inhabit a wide range of environments and are capable of utilizing a wide variety of electron acceptors during anaerobic respiration including some insoluble metal oxides while using very few carbon sources such as lactate or acetate. This group of organisms have been studied extensively for their electron transport systems. Shewanella frigidimarina is an iron-reducing marine bacterium. This organism have been isolated from seawater, sea ice, and marine algae.
