Lineage: Slackia heliotrinireducens; Slackia; Coriobacteriaceae; Coriobacteriales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Isolation: Sheep rumen; Country: Australia; Temp: Mesophile; Temp: 42 - 48C; Habitat: Rumen. Formerly Peptococcus heliotrinreducans, this organism was isolated from the rumen of a sheep. This organism can degrade the toxic alkaloid heliotrine which is produced by the plant Heliotropium europaeum.
Subject: NC_007907:2306561 Desulfitobacterium hafniense Y51, complete genome
Lineage: Desulfitobacterium hafniense; Desulfitobacterium; Peptococcaceae; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from soil contaminated with tetrachloroethene (PCE) in Japan. It can efficiently dehalogenate PCEs via trichloroethene (TCE) to cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-1,2-DCE). It can also dehalogenase tetra-, penta-, and hexachloroethanes. Hydrocarbon dehalogenator. This organism can dehalogenate a variety of hydrocarbons and can utilize fumarate, sulfite, and thiosulfate (but not thiousulfate) as terminal electron acceptors. Some important pollutants such as polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) may be degraded by this organism.
