Draft Genome Sequence of Lampenflora Chlorobium limicola Strain Frasassi in a Sulfidic Cave System.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The draft genome sequence of Chlorobium limicola strain Frasassi was assembled from metagenomic sequencing of a green mat in an artificially lighted aquarium inside the Frasassi caves in Italy. The genome is 2.08 Mbp in size and contains the necessary genes for anoxygenic photosynthesis and CO2 fixation.

متن کاملSepiapterin reductases from Chlorobium tepidum and Chlorobium limicola catalyze the synthesis of L-threo-tetrahydrobiopterin from 6-pyruvoyltetrahydropterin.
The ORF sequences of the gene encoding sepiapterin reductase were cloned from the genomic DNAs of Chlorobium tepidum and Chlorobium limicola, which are known to produce L-threo- and L-erythro-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4)-N-acetylglucosamine, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequence of C. limicola consists of 241 residues, while C. tepidum SR has three residues more at the C-terminal. The over...
متن کاملPhylogenetic taxonomy of the family Chlorobiaceae on the basis of 16S rRNA and fmo (Fenna-Matthews-Olson protein) gene sequences.
A new taxonomy of the green sulfur bacteria is proposed, based on phylogenetic relationships determined using the sequences of the independent 16S rRNA and fmo (Fenna-Matthews-Olson protein) genes, and supported by the DNA G + C content and sequence signatures. Comparison of the traditional classification system for these bacteria with their phylogenetic relationship yielded a confusing picture...
متن کاملRepeatedly Evolved Host-Specific Ectosymbioses between Sulfur-Oxidizing Bacteria and Amphipods Living in a Cave Ecosystem
Ectosymbioses between invertebrates and sulfur-oxidizing bacteria are widespread in sulfidic marine environments and have evolved independently in several invertebrate phyla. The first example from a freshwater habitat, involving Niphargus ictus amphipods and filamentous Thiothrix ectosymbionts, was recently reported from the sulfide-rich Frasassi caves in Italy. Subsequently, two new Niphargus...
