Query: NC_016603:3181592 Acinetobacter calcoaceticus PHEA-2 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Acinetobacter calcoaceticus; Acinetobacter; Moraxellaceae; Pseudomonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Acinetobacter calcoaceticus is part of the normal flora of the human skin and throat. It is an opportunistic pathogen. Originally isolated from industrial wastewater in China because of its ability to use phenol as the sole carbon source.
Subject: NC_013791:1291339 Bacillus pseudofirmus OF4 chromosome, complete genome
Lineage: Bacillus pseudofirmus; Bacillus; Bacillaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: This strain was isolated from soil in New York State by alkaline enrichment cultures. Because of its pH range and genetic accessibility, this alkaliphile has been extensively used as the model organism for studies of the bioenergetics of life at extremely high pH. This organism is a facultative, extreme alkaliphile that grows non-fermentatively as well as fermentatively in a pH range from near neutral to above pH 11.2.
