Campylobacterota
Campylobacterota are a phylum of bacteria. All species of this phylum are Gram-negative. The Campylobacterota consist of few known genera, mainly the curved to spirilloid ''Wolinella'' spp., ''Helicobacter'' spp., and '' Campylobacter'' spp. Most of the known species inhabit the digestive tracts of animals and serve as symbionts (''Wolinella'' spp. in cattle) or pathogens (''Helicobacter'' spp. in the stomach, ''Campylobacter'' spp. in the duodenum). Many Campylobacterota are motile with flagella. Numerous environmental sequences and isolates of Campylobacterota have also been recovered from hydrothermal vents and cold seep habitats. Examples of isolates include ''Sulfurimonas autotrophica'', ''Sulfurimonas paralvinellae'', ''Sulfurovum lithotrophicum'' and ''Nautilia profundicola''. A member of the phylum Campylobacterota occurs as an endosymbiont in the large gills of the deepwater sea snail ''Alviniconcha hessleri''.

Sulfurimonas
Sulfurimonas is a bacterial genus within the class of Campylobacterota, known for reducing nitrate, oxidizing both sulfur and hydrogen, and containing Group IV hydrogenases. This genus consists of four species: ''Sulfurimonas autorophica'', ''Sulfurimonas denitrificans'', ''Sulfurimonas gotlandica'', and ''Sulfurimonas paralvinellae''. The genus' name is derived from "''sulfur"'' in Latin and ''"monas"'' from Greek, together meaning a “sulfur-oxidizing rod”. The size of the bacteria varies between about 1.5-2.5 μm in length and 0.5-1.0 μm in width. Members of the genus ''Sulfurimonas'' are found in a variety of different environments which include deep sea-vents, marine sediments, and terrestrial habitats. Their ability to survive in extreme conditions is attributed to multiple copies of one enzyme. Phylogenetic analysis suggests that members of the genus ''Sulfurimonas'' have limited dispersal ability and its speciation was affected by geographical isolation rather than hydr ...

Nautilia Profundicola
''Nautilia profundicola'' is a Gram-negative chemolithoautotrophic bacterium found around hydrothermal vents in the deep ocean. It was first discovered in 1999 on the East Pacific Rise at depth of , on the surface of the polychaete worm ''Alvinella pompejana''. ''Nautilia profundicola'' lives symbiotically on the dorsal hairs of ''A. pompejana'' but they may also form biofilms and live independently on the walls of hydrothermal vents. The ability of ''N. profundicola'' to survive in an anaerobic environment rich in sulfur, H2 and CO2 of varying temperature makes it a useful organism to study, as these are the conditions that are theorized to have prevailed around the time of the earliest life on earth. Morphology ''Nautilia profundicola'' is a motile, rod-shaped bacterium, around 0.4 μm long and 0.3 μm wide. Like most Campylobacterota (syn. Epsilonproteobacteria), it has an unsheathed polar flagellum. Physiology ''Nautilia profundicola'' lives among ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Campylobacteria
The Campylobacterales are an order of Campylobacterota which make up the epsilon subdivision, together with the small family Nautiliaceae. They are Gram-negative.

Wolinella
The genus ''Wolinella'' is a member of the Campylobacterales order of Bacteria. The order Campylobacterales includes human pathogens such as ''Helicobacter pylori'' and ''Campylobacter jejuni''. Strains The only publicly available strain of ''Wolinella'' is '' Wolinella succinogenes'' DSM 1740 (ATCC 29543). The original isolation of this organism was done by M. J. Wolin, E. A. Wolin and N. J. Jacobs at the University of Illinois. This original isolation was done from bovine rumen fluid and was somewhat serendipitous as the researchers were intending to isolate methanogenic organisms. This bacterium was originally classified as ''Vibrio succinogenes'', but was reclassified in 1981 to ''Wolinella succinogenes'' by A. C. R. Tanner ''et al''. Strains of ''Wolinella'' have been isolated from feline and canine oral cavities. Only one strain is currently published with ''Candidatus'' status: ''Candidatus Wolinella africanus''. This strain was isolated from the upper digestive tracts of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

'The All-Species Living Tree' Project
The All-Species Living Tree' Project is a collaboration between various academic groups/institutes, such as ARB Project, ARB, SILVA rRNA database project, and List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature, LPSN, with the aim of assembling a database of 16S ribosomal RNA, 16S rRNA sequences of all validly published species of ''Bacteria'' and ''Archaea''. At one stage, 23S ribosomal RNA, 23S sequences were also collected, but this has since stopped. Currently there are over 10,950 species in the aligned dataset and several more are being added either as new species are discovered or species that are not represented in the database are sequenced. Initially the latter group consisted of 7% of species. Similar (and more recent) projects include the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea (GEBA), which focused on whole genome sequencing of bacteria and archaea.
