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] |
Deinococcota
''Deinococcota'' (synonym, ''Deinococcus-Thermus'') is a phylum of bacteria with a single class, ''Deinococci'', that are highly resistant to environmental hazards, also known as extremophiles. These bacteria have thick cell walls that give them gram-positive stains, but they include a second membrane and so are closer in structure to those of gram-negative bacteria. Taxonomy The phylum ''Deinococcota'' consists of a single class (''Deinococci'') and two orders: * The ''Deinococcales'' include two families (''Deinococcaceae'' and'' Trueperaceae''), with three genera, ''Deinococcus'', ''Deinobacterium'' and ''Truepera''.Garrity GM, Holt JG.

Thermales
''Thermales'' is an order of bacteria belonging to the ''Deinococcota'' phylum. They are particularly resistant to heat, and live in the benthic zone of the Gulf of Mexico. Members of the order ''Thermales'' can be distinguished from all other bacteria through molecular signatures consisting of conserved signature indels (CSIs) and conserved signature proteins (CSPs) that are exclusively present in members of this order. Specifically, six CSIs were identified in the following proteins: DNA topoisomerase I, ABC transporter permease, citrate synthase, phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase, pyruvate dehydrogenase and alpha-glucan phosphorylase. 51 CSPs were also found to be exclusively shared by members of this order. In addition, a 76 aa CSI is present in the protein SecA preprotein translocase which is specific to all members of the order ''Thermales'' as well as ''Hydrogenibacillus schlegelii'' (also an thermophilic species). Based on studies on other CSIs and CSPs, it is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Thermus
''Thermus'' is a genus of thermophilic bacteria. It is one of several bacteria belonging to the ''Deinococcota'' phylum. ''Thermus'' species can be distinguished from other genera in the family ''Thermaceae'' as well as all other bacteria by the presence of eight conserved signature indels (CSIs) found in proteins such as adenylate kinase and replicative DNA helicase as well as 14 conserved signature proteins (CSPs) that are exclusively shared by members of this genus. Phylogeny The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) and the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). Unassigned species: * "'' T. anatoliensis''" Kacagan et al. 2016 * "'' T. caldophilus''" Taguchi et al. 1983 * "'' T. eggertssonii''" Peters 2008 * "'' T. murrieta''" Benner et al. 2006 * "'' T. nonproteolyticus''" 1992 * "'' T. rehai''" Lin et al. 2002 * "'' T. yunnanensis''" Gong et al. 2005 See also * Bacteria * Biotechnol ...

Iceland
Iceland ( is, Ísland; ) is a Nordic island country in the North Atlantic Ocean and in the Arctic Ocean. Iceland is the most sparsely populated country in Europe. Iceland's capital and largest city is Reykjavík, which (along with its surrounding areas) is home to over 65% of the population. Iceland is the biggest part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge that rises above sea level, and its central volcanic plateau is erupting almost constantly. The interior consists of a plateau characterised by sand and lava fields, mountains, and glaciers, and many glacial rivers flow to the sea through the lowlands. Iceland is warmed by the Gulf Stream and has a temperate climate, despite a high latitude just outside the Arctic Circle. Its high latitude and marine influence keep summers chilly, and most of its islands have a polar climate. According to the ancient manuscript , the settlement of Iceland began in 874 AD when the Norwegian chieftain Ingólfr Arnarson became the first p ...
