Moderately thermophilic magnetotactic bacteria from hot springs in Nevada.
Populations of a moderately thermophilic magnetotactic bacterium were discovered in Great Boiling Springs, Nevada, ranging from 32 to 63 degrees C. Cells were small, Gram-negative, vibrioid to helicoid in morphology, and biomineralized a chain of bullet-shaped magnetite magnetosomes. Phylogenetically, based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing, the organism belongs to the phylum Nitrospirae.
متن کاملNonmarine crenarchaeol in Nevada hot springs.
Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs) are core membrane lipids of the Crenarchaeota. The structurally unusual GDGT crenarchaeol has been proposed as a taxonomically specific biomarker for the marine planktonic group I archaea. It is found ubiquitously in the marine water column and in sediments. In this work, samples of microbial community biomass were obtained from several alkaline and...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of aerobic thermophilic bacteria from the savusavu hot springs in fiji.
The relative isolation and unique physical properties of the Savusavu Hot Springs in Fiji may yield unique thermophiles. This study was conducted to determine the presence of aerobic thermophilic bacteria in these hot springs. A total of 104 thermophilic bacterial isolates were characterized and using Thermus and Bacillus strains as controls, 58% of the isolates were identified as Anoxybacillus...
متن کاملCharacterization of some thermophilic bacteria from the Hot Springs of Yellowstone National Park.
Extensive enzymatic studies have been conducted on cell-free fractions from a thermophilic bacterium designated as National Canners Association strain 2184 and tentativelv identified as Bacillus stearothermophilus Donk (1920), (Militzer et al., 1949, 1950, 1951, 1952; Georgi et al., 1951; h'Iarsh and Militzer, 1952). Preparatory to extending these investigations to other thermophilic bacteria, ...
متن کاملA Test for Airborne Dispersal of Thermophilic Bacteria from Hot Springs
Physical and chemical barriers separate individual terrestrial hot springs and their affiliated communities of thermophilic bacteria. However, 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons suggest that seemingly identical or closely related bacterial species are found in multiple hot springs that are separated by distances that range from a few meters to thousands of kilometers. To investigate whether thi...
