Genome assembly of the chemosynthetic endosymbiont of the hydrothermal vent snail Alviniconcha adamantis from the Mariana Arc [PDF]
Chemosynthetic animal-microbe symbioses sustain hydrothermal vent communities in the global deep sea. In the Indo-Pacific Ocean, hydrothermal ecosystems are often dominated by gastropod species of the genus Alviniconcha, which live in association with ...

Methylacidiphilum kamchatkense gen. nov., sp. nov., an extremely acidophilic and moderately thermophilic methanotroph belonging to the phylum Verrucomicrobiota [PDF]
The thermo-acidophilic aerobic methanotrophic Verrucomicrobia bacterium, designated strain Kam1T was isolated from an acidic geothermal mud spring in Kamchatka, Russia. Kam1T is Gram-stain-negative, with non-motile cells and non-spore-forming rods, and a

Abstract Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas emitted by archaea in anaerobic environments such as wetland soils. Tidal freshwater wetlands are predicted to become increasingly saline as sea levels rise due to climate change. Previous work has shown that increases in salinity generally decrease CH4 emissions, but with considerable variation ...

Specificities and commonalities of the Planctomycetes plasmidome
Genetic exchange between plasmids and chromosomes in Planctomycetes has a long history. Plasmids within Planctomycetes carry crucial modules that are also found in the wider bacterial plasmidome, including the ability to transfer via conjugation. The most common replicon in these plasmids is well‐suited for creating replicative vectors, which can be ...

Complete genome sequence of Isosphaera pallida type strain (IS1B). [PDF]
Isosphaera pallida (ex Woronichin 1927) Giovannoni et al. 1995 is the type species of the genus Isosphaera. The species is of interest because it was the first heterotrophic bacterium known to be phototactic, and it occupies an isolated phylogenetic ...

Planctomycetes as a Source for Cytotoxic Activity Towards Cancer Cells [PDF]
Planctomycetes are a ubiquitous phylum in the bacterial domain. They are known to possess unique traits distinguishing them from other bacteria, such as the formation of rosette aggregates, the lack of FtsZ-protein used in binary fission and the ...
