Journal ArticleDOI

Pyrolobus fumarii, gen. and sp. nov., represents a novel group of archaea, extending the upper temperature limit for life to 113 degrees C

TL;DR: A novel, irregular, coccoid-shaped archaeum was isolated from a hydrothermally heated black smoker wall at the TAG site at the Mid Atlantic Ridge and described here a new genus, which is named Pyrolobus (the "fire lobe").
Journal ArticleDOI

Aquifex pyrophilus gen. nov. sp. nov., Represents a Novel Group of Marine Hyperthermophilic Hydrogen-Oxidizing Bacteria

TL;DR: A new genus is described here a new genus, which will represent the deepest phylogenetic branch-off within the Bacteria domain, Aquifex (the “water-maker”), based on the physiological and molecular properties of the new isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pyrobaculum aerophilum sp. nov., a novel nitrate-reducing hyperthermophilic archaeum.

TL;DR: A rod-shaped hyperthermophilic archaeum has been isolated from a boiling marine water hole at Maronti Beach, Ischia, Italy as discussed by the authors, which is described as a new species, which we name Pyrobaculum aerophilum (type strain: IM2; DSM 7523).
Journal ArticleDOI

Ferroglobus placidus gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel hyperthermophilic archaeum that oxidizes Fe2+ at neutral pH under anoxic conditions

TL;DR: A novel coccoid, anaerobic, Fe2+-oxidizing archaeum was isolated from a shallow submarine hydrothermal system at Vulcano, Italy and represents a novel genus among the Archaeoglobales that is named Ferroglobus.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Phylogenetic Analysis of Aquifex pyrophilus

TL;DR: The 16S rRNA of the bacterion Aquifex pyrophilus, a microaerophilic, oxygen-reducing hyperthermophile, has been sequenced directly from the the PCR amplified gene, andylogenetic analyses show the Aq.
