Query: NC_016779:4645155 Bacillus cereus F837/76 chromosome, complete genome

Lineage: Bacillus cereus; Bacillus; Bacillaceae; Bacillales; Firmicutes; Bacteria

General Information: This organism is a soil-dwelling opportunistic pathogen that causes food poisoning in infected individuals. The rapid onset is characterized by nausea and vomiting while the late onset is characterized by diarrhea and abdominal pain. The emetic disease is caused by a small stable dodecadepsipeptide cerulide whereas the diarrheal disease is caused by a heat labile enterotoxin. Some strains produce a potent cytotoxin that forms a pore in the membrane of eukaryotic cells and causes necrotic enteritis (death of intestinal epithelial cells) while the unique tripartite membrane lytic toxin hemolysin BL contributes to the diarrheal disease and destructive infections of the eye.

Subject: NC_003910:2175305 Colwellia psychrerythraea 34H, complete genome

Lineage: Colwellia psychrerythraea; Colwellia; Colwelliaceae; Alteromonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria

General Information: This strain was isolated from Arctic marine sediments. Psychrophilic bacterium. This obligately psychrophilic red-pigmented organism is often found in sea ice, and can grow in temperatures down to -5 C, remaining motile even at those low temperatures. It can produce extracellular enzymes such as proteases that have activity at very low temperatures.
