Lineage: Geobacter; Geobacter; Geobacteraceae; Desulfuromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Environment: Sediment; Temp: Mesophile. Nitrogen fixation. Geobacillus sp. (strain M18) is an anaerobic, chemolithotrophic, iron-reducing Gram-negative bacterium.
Subject: NC_008705:1537080 Mycobacterium sp. KMS, complete genome
Lineage: Mycobacterium; Mycobacterium; Mycobacteriaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This organism was isolated from creosote-contaminated soil from the Champion International Superfund site in Libby, Montana, USA. This microbe, along with some others collected at this site, are able to rapidly mineralize 14C-labeled pyrene. Phylogenetic studies based on the rRNA 16S gene confirmed that strains collected at this site were distinct from one another and also from other known Mycobacterium isolates.
