Lineage: Deinococcus deserti; Deinococcus; Deinococcaceae; Deinococcales; Deinococcus-Thermus; Bacteria
General Information: Deinococcus deserti VCD115 was isolated from gamma-irradiated Sahara desert sand. Deinococcus deserti is resistant to gamma radiation, UV radiation, and desiccation due to a very efficient DNA repair mechanism.
Subject: NC_014752:617987 Neisseria lactamica ST-640, complete genome
Lineage: Neisseria lactamica; Neisseria; Neisseriaceae; Neisseriales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Neisseria lactamica ST-640 was isolated from a nasopharyngeal culture. This organism is a nonpathogenic, commensal, bacterium closely related to the pathogenic Neisseria meningitidis. While commonly isolated from nose and throat cultures of children Neisseria lactamica is only rarely isolated from adults.
