Permanent Draft Genome Sequence of Desulfurococcus amylolyticus Strain Z-533 T , a Peptide and Starch Degrader Isolated from Thermal Springs in the Kamchatka Peninsula and Kunashir Island, Russia

ABSTRACT Desulfurococcus amylolyticus Z-533 T , a hyperthermophilic crenarcheon, ferments peptide and starch, generating acetate, isobutyrate, isovalerate, CO 2 , and hydrogen. Unlike D. amylolyticus Z-1312, it cannot use cellulose and is inhibited by hydrogen. The reported draft genome sequence of...

Description
Summary:ABSTRACT Desulfurococcus amylolyticus Z-533 T , a hyperthermophilic crenarcheon, ferments peptide and starch, generating acetate, isobutyrate, isovalerate, CO 2 , and hydrogen. Unlike D. amylolyticus Z-1312, it cannot use cellulose and is inhibited by hydrogen. The reported draft genome sequence of D. amylolyticus Z-533 T will help to understand the molecular basis for these differences.
