Query: NC_014614:2500301 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.

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.
