Taxonomy

Description
Irregular cocci cells, 1–2 µm in diameter, non-motile. Use methanol and methylamines as methanogenesis substrates together with hydrogen. Requires acetate, yeast extract, Casamino acids, and coenzyme M. The optimum temperature is 37 °C. The G+C content of the type genome is 44.4%, and the estimated genome size is 2.10 Mbp.
