Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract |
A mesophilic, hyperacidophilic archaeon, strain M1T, was isolated from a rock sample from Vulcano Island, Italy. Cells of this organism were cocci with an average diameter of 1 µm. Some cells possessed filaments. The strain grew in the range of temperatures between 15 and 52 °C and pH 0.5–4.0 with growth optima at 40 °C and pH 1.0. Strain M1T was aerobic and chemoorganotrophic, growing on complex substrates, such as casamino acids, trypticase, tryptone, yeast and beef extracts. No growth at expenses of oxidation of elemental sulphur or reduced sulphur compounds, pyrite, or ferrous sulphate was observed. The core lipids were glycerol dibiphytanyl glycerol tetraether lipids (membrane spanning) with 0 to 4 cyclopentane moieties and archaeol, with trace amounts of hydroxy archaeol. The dominant quinone was MK-7 : 7. The genome size of M1T was 1.67 Mbp with a G+C content of 39.76 mol%, and both characteristics were well within the common range for Thermoplasmatales. The phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence placed the strain M1T within the order Thermoplasmatales with sequence identities of 90.9, 90.3 and 90.5% to the closest SSU rRNA gene sequences from organisms with validly published names, Thermoplasma acidophilum, Thermoplasma volcanium and Thermogymnomonas acidicola, respectively. Based on the results of our genomic, phylogenetic, physiological and chemotaxonomic studies, we propose that strain M1T (=DSM 116605T=JCM 36570T) represents a new genus and species, Oxyplasma meridianum gen. nov., sp. nov., within the order Thermoplasmatales. |
