Lineage: Macrococcus caseolyticus; Macrococcus; Staphylococcaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This methicillin-resistant strain was isolated from animal meat in a supermarket. This organism is a large gram positive coccus, related to the Staphylococcus, often associated meat and sheep, goat and cattle milk.
Subject: NC_014614:6115 Clostridium sticklandii, complete genome
Lineage: Clostridium sticklandii; Clostridium; unclassified Peptostreptococcaceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This Clostridium (HF strain, ATCC 12662) was initially found associated with Methanococcus vannieli in formate-enriched cultures. After its isolation in pure culture, it was shown that this organism is capable of fermenting amino acids. Biochemical studies have shown that C. sticklandii obtains energy for growth from oxidation-reduction reactions between specific amino acid pairs. Clostridium sticklandii is a Gram-positive bacterium with low (G +C) content that is capable of fermenting amino acids.
