Halothiobacillus
''Halothiobacillus'' is a genus in the ''Gammaproteobacteria''. Both species are obligate aerobic bacteria; they require oxygen to grow. They are also halotolerant; they live in environments with high concentrations of salt or other solutes, but don't require them in order to grow.

Carboxysome
Carboxysomes are bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) consisting of polyhedral protein shells filled with the enzymes ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO)—the predominant enzyme in carbon fixation and the rate limiting enzyme in the Calvin cycle—and carbonic anhydrase. Carboxysomes are thought to have evolved as a consequence of the increase in oxygen concentration in the ancient atmosphere; this is because oxygen is a competing substrate to carbon dioxide in the RuBisCO reaction. To overcome the inefficiency of RuBisCO, carboxysomes concentrate carbon dioxide inside the shell by means of co-localized carbonic anhydrase activity, which produces carbon dioxide from the bicarbonate that diffuses into the carboxysome. The resulting concentration of carbon dioxide near RuBisCO decreases the proportion of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate oxygenation and thereby avoids costly photorespiratory reactions. The surrounding shell provides a barrier to carbon dioxid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Thiobacillus
''Thiobacillus'' is a genus of Gram-negative Betaproteobacteria. '' Thiobacillus thioparus'' is the type species of the genus, and the type strain thereof is the StarkeyT strain, isolated by Robert Starkey in the 1930s from a field at Rutgers University in the United States of America. While over 30 "species" have been named in this genus since it was defined by Martinus Beijerinck in 1904, (the first strain was observed by the biological oceanographer Alexander Nathansohn in 1902 - likely what we would now call ''Halothiobacillus neapolitanus''), most names were never validly or effectively published. The remainder were either reclassified into ''Paracoccus'', '' Starkeya'' (both in the Alphaproteobacteria); '' Sulfuriferula'', ''Annwoodia'', ''Thiomonas'' (in the Betaproteobacteria); ''Halothiobacillus'', ''Guyparkeria'' (in the Gammaproteobacteria), or ''Thermithiobacillus'' or ''Acidithiobacillus'' (in the Acidithiobacillia).

Guyparkeria Hydrothermalis
''Guyparkeria'' is a genus in the '' Gammaproteobacteria''. Both species are obligate aerobic bacteria; they require oxygen to grow. They are also halophilic and have varying degrees of thermophilicity. They live in environments with high concentrations of salt or other solutes, such as in hydrothermal vent plumes or in hypersaline playas, and do require high sodium ion concentrations in order to grow, as is also the case in the other genus of the same family, '' Thioalkalibacter'' Both species of this genus were originally published as members of the genus ''Thiobacillus'', before they were reclassified in 2000 to ''Halothiobacillus'',Kelly, D.P., and Wood, A.P.

Bacteria
Bacteria (; singular: bacterium) are ubiquitous, mostly free-living organisms often consisting of one biological cell. They constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats. Bacteria inhabit soil, water, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, and the deep biosphere of Earth's crust. Bacteria are vital in many stages of the nutrient cycle by recycling nutrients such as the fixation of nitrogen from the atmosphere. The nutrient cycle includes the decomposition of dead bodies; bacteria are responsible for the putrefaction stage in this process. In the biological communities surrounding hydrothermal vents and cold seeps, extremophile bacteria provide the nutrients needed to sustain life by converting dissolved compounds, such as hydrogen sulphide and methane, to energy. Bacteria also live in symbiotic and parasitic relationsh ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Thermithiobacillus
''Thermithiobacillus'' is a genus of nonsporeforming, rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacteria. The name derives from the Latin ''thermae'', for warm baths, and the Classical Greek θείος, ''theios'' for sulfur. The type species of this genus was previously assigned to the genus ''Thiobacillus'', but it was reclassified on the basis of 16S rRNA analysis in 2000, creating this genus. A phylogenetic analysis, using 98 protein families confirmed this reassignment. This chemolithoautotrophic genus is obligately aerobic and moderately thermophilic (43-45 °C). The type species is Thermithiobacillus tepidarius (''Thermithiobacillus tepidarius''). ''Thermithiobacillus plumbiphilus ''Thermithiobacillus'' is a genus of nonsporeforming, rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacteria.
