Lignite coal burning seam in the remote Altai Mountains harbors a hydrogen-driven thermophilic microbial community

Citation
Kadnikov et al. (2018). Scientific Reports 8 (1)
Names
“Carbonibacillus altaicus”
Abstract
AbstractThermal ecosystems associated with underground coal combustion sites are rare and less studied than geothermal features. Here we analysed microbial communities of near-surface ground layer and bituminous substance in an open quarry heated by subsurface coal fire by metagenomic DNA sequencing. Taxonomic classification revealed dominance of only a few groups of Firmicutes. Near-complete genomes of three most abundant species, ‘Candidatus Carbobacillus altaicus’ AL32, Brockia lithotrophica

Complete Genome Sequence of “Vulcanisaeta moutnovskia” Strain 768-28, a Novel Member of the Hyperthermophilic Crenarchaeal Genus Vulcanisaeta

Names
Ca. Vulcanisaeta moutnovskia
Abstract
ABSTRACT Strain 768-28 was isolated from a hot spring in Kamchatka, Russia, and represents a novel member of the Vulcanisaeta genus. The complete genome sequence of this thermoacidophilic anaerobic crenarchaeon reveals genes for protein and carbohydrate-active enzymes, the Embden-Meyerhof and Entner-Doudoroff pathways for glucose metabolism, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, beta-oxidation of fatty acids, and sulfate reduction.
