چکیده
Thermococcus sp. strain 4557 is a hyperthermophilic anaerobic archaeon isolated from the deep-sea hydrothermal vent Guaymas Basin site in the Gulf of California at a depth of 2,000 m. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of Thermococcus sp. 4557, which consists of a single circular chromosome of 2,011,320 bp with a G+C content of 56.08%.

Complete genome sequence of the hyperthermophilic, piezophilic, heterotrophic, and carboxydotrophic archaeon Thermococcus barophilus MP.
Thermococcus barophilus is a hyperthermophilic, anaerobic, mixed heterotrophic, and carboxydotrophic euryarchaeon isolated from the deep sea hydrothermal vent Snakepit site on the mid-Atlantic ridge at a depth of 3,550 m. T. barophilus is the first true piezophilic, hyperthermophilic archaeon isolated, having an optimal growth at 40 MPa. Here we report the complete genome sequence of strain MP,...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Hyperthermophilic Archaeon Thermococcus sp. EXT12c, Isolated from the East Pacific Rise 9°N
We report the genome sequence of Thermococcus sp. EXT12c isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent at the East Pacific Rise 9°N. Microbes in the genus Thermococcus are able to grow anaerobically at high temperature, around neutral pH, and some of them under high hydrostatic pressure.
متن کاملComplete genome sequence of hyperthermophilic Pyrococcus sp. strain NA2, isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent area.
Pyrococcus sp. strain NA2, isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent sample, is a novel marine hyperthermophilic archaeon that grows optimally at 93 °C. The complete genome sequence of the strain contains all the genes for the tricarboxylic acid cycle except for succinate dehydrogenase/fumarate reductase, but the genome does not encode proteins involved in polysaccharide utilization.
متن کاملGenome Sequence of a Hyperthermophilic Archaeon, Thermococcus nautili 30-1, That Produces Viral Vesicles
Thermococcus nautili 30-1 (formerly Thermococcus nautilus), an anaerobic hyperthermophilic marine archaeon, was isolated in 1999 from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent during the Amistad campaign. Here, we present the complete sequence of T. nautili, which is able to produce membrane vesicles containing plasmid DNA. This property makes T. nautili a model organism to study horizontal gene transfer.
متن کاملThermococcus fumicolans sp. nov., a new hyperthermophilic archaeon isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent in the north Fiji Basin.
An extremely thermophilic archaeon, strain ST557T (T = type strain), was isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent in the North Fiji Basin. This strain is a strictly anaerbic coccus whose cells are about 0.8 to 2 microns in diameter. The optimum temperature, pH and sea salt concentration for growth are 85 degrees C, 8.5, and 20 to 40 g/liter, respectively. Strain ST557T grows preferentially in...
