Query: NC_009662:645871 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.

Subject: NC_014804:803510 Thermococcus barophilus MP chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Thermococcus barophilus; Thermococcus; Thermococcaceae; Thermococcales; Euryarchaeota; Archaea

General Information: This organism was collected from the chimney wall of a Mid-Atlantic hydrothermal vent known as "Snakebite", at a depth of 3550 m. It was isolated under in situ pressure. True barophilic and hyperthermophilic archaeon strain.
