Vulcanithermus mediatlanticus gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the family Thermaceae from a deep-sea hot vent

Abstract: Vulcanithermus mediatlanticus gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel member of the family Thermaceae from a deep-sea hot vent A novel thermophilic, microaerophilic, facultatively chemolithoheterotrophic bacterium designated strain TR T was isolated from a sample of a deep-sea hydrothermal chimney collected at the Rainbow vent field on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge (36˚149N). Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile rods occurred singly or in pairs. The organism grew in the temperature range 37-80˚C with an optimum at 70˚C … Show more

“…Due to the prevalence of clone FBP266 the authors postulated that this bacterium may play a role in primary production. The closest cultured relative is Vulcanithermus, which is a moderately thermophilic, halotolerant, facultative chemolithotroph able to utilize molecular hydrogen as energy source (Miroshnichenko et al, 2003). They also grow heterotrophically on carbohydrates, proteins, organic acids.…”

“…Strain K4.1 T contained menaquinone MK-8, which is the major quinone of all genera in the phylum Deinococcus-Thermus (Albuquerque et al, 2005;Rainey et al, 2007;Miroshnichenko et al, 2003).…”

“…A novel member, Vulcanithermus, was isolated as the fifth genus (Miroshnichenko et al, 2003b). Thus, polyamine profiles of new species of the five genera were determined, in relation to their growth temperature and their phylogenetic distance.…”
