We isolated a thermophilic hydrogenotrophic methanogen, Methanothermobacter sp. strain CaT2, which is able to aggregate and utilize formate. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of this organism.

The genome of strain GS3372 is the first publicly available strain of Aeribacillus pallidus. This endospore-forming thermophilic strain was isolated from a deep geothermal reservoir. The availability of this genome can contribute to the clarification of the taxonomy of the closely related Anoxybacillus, Geobacillus, and Aeribacillus genera.

Clostridium thermocellum wild-type strain YS is an anaerobic, thermophilic, cellulolytic bacterium capable of directly converting cellulosic substrates into ethanol. Strain YS and a derived cellulose adhesion-defective mutant strain, AD2, played pivotal roles in describing the original cellulosome concept. We present their draft genome sequences.

Thermus sp. strain CCB_US3_UF1, a thermophilic bacterium, has been isolated from a hot spring in Malaysia. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of Thermus sp. CCB_US3_UF1.

Seven closely related xylanolytic, thermophilic bacilli were isolated from mud and water samples from the Gonen and Diyadin hot springs, respectively located in the Turkish provinces of Balikesir and Agri. On the basis of morphology and biochemical characteristics, one of the isolates, designated strain G2(T), was studied further. Strain G2(T) is a xylanolytic, sporulating, Gram-positive, rod-s...

background and objectives: thermophilic bacteria are less studied but important group of microorganisms due to their ability to produce industrial enzymes. materials and methods: in this study, thermophilic bacteria were isolated from hot spring of tarabalo, india. a bacterium that could tolerate high temperatures was characterized by morphology, biochemistry and sequencing of its 16s rrna gene...

A novel marine thermophilic and heterotrophic Anaerolineae bacterium in the phylum Chloroflexi, strain SW7(T), was isolated from an in situ colonization system deployed in the main hydrothermal vent of the Taketomi submarine hot spring field located on the southern part of Yaeyama Archipelago, Japan. The microbial community associated with the hydrothermal vent was predominated by thermophilic ...

Anoxybacillus suryakundensis strain JS1(T), a facultative anaerobic, moderately thermophilic, alkalitolerant bacterium, was isolated from a hot spring. The estimated genome is 2.6 Mb and encodes 2,668 proteins.

BACKGROUND Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) of lignocellulosic biomass to ethanol using thermophilic bacteria provides a promising solution for efficient lignocellulose conversion without the need for additional cellulolytic enzymes. Most studies on the thermophilic CBP concentrate on co-cultivation of the thermophilic cellulolytic bacterium Clostridium thermocellum with non-cellulolytic thermo...
