Thermithiobacillaceae
''Thermithiobacillus'' is a genus of nonsporeforming, rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacteria. The name derives from the Latin ''thermae'', for warm baths, and the Classical Greek θείος, ''theios'' for sulfur. The type species of this genus was previously assigned to the genus ''Thiobacillus'', but it was reclassified on the basis of 16S rRNA analysis in 2000, creating this genus. A phylogenetic analysis, using 98 protein families confirmed this reassignment. This chemolithoautotrophic genus is obligately aerobic and moderately thermophilic (43-45 °C). The type species is Thermithiobacillus tepidarius (''Thermithiobacillus tepidarius ''Thermithiobacillus tepidarius'' (from the Latin ''tepidarium''; a warm bath fed by natural thermal water) is a member of the ''Acidithiobacillia'' isolated from the thermal groundwaters of the Roman Baths (Bath), Roman Baths at Bath, Somerset, ...'').

Thermithiobacillus Tepidarius
''Thermithiobacillus tepidarius'' (from the Latin ''tepidarium''; a warm bath fed by natural thermal water) is a member of the ''Acidithiobacillia'' isolated from the thermal groundwaters of the Roman Baths (Bath), Roman Baths at Bath, Somerset, Bath, Somerset, United Kingdom. It was previously placed in the genus ''Hydrogenophilaceae, Thiobacillus''. The organism is a moderate thermophile, , and an Aerobic organism, obligate aerobic chemotroph, chemolithotrophic autotroph. Despite having an optimum pH of 6.0–7.5, growth can continue to an acid medium of pH 4.8. Growth can only occur on redox, reduced inorganic sulfur compounds (thiosulfate, polythionates from trithionate to octathionate ''pace'' pentathionate, sulfide) and elementary sulfur, but unlike some species in other genus of the same family, ''Acidithiobacillus'', ''Thermithiobacillus'' spp. are unable to oxidise ferrous iron or iron-containing minerals.

Greek Language
Greek ( el, label= Modern Greek, Ελληνικά, Elliniká, ; grc, Ἑλληνική, Hellēnikḗ) is an independent branch of the Indo-European family of languages, native to Greece, Cyprus, southern Italy ( Calabria and Salento), southern Albania, and other regions of the Balkans, the Black Sea coast, Asia Minor, and the Eastern Mediterranean. It has the longest documented history of any Indo-European language, spanning at least 3,400 years of written records. Its writing system is the Greek alphabet, which has been used for approximately 2,800 years; previously, Greek was recorded in writing systems such as Linear B and the Cypriot syllabary. The alphabet arose from the Phoenician script and was in turn the basis of the Latin, Cyrillic, Armenian, Coptic, Gothic, and many other writing systems. The Greek language holds a very important place in the history of the Western world. Beginning with the epics of Homer, ancient Greek literature includes many works ...

Sulfur
Sulfur (or sulphur in British English) is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. It is abundant, multivalent and nonmetallic. Under normal conditions, sulfur atoms form cyclic octatomic molecules with a chemical formula S8. Elemental sulfur is a bright yellow, crystalline solid at room temperature. Sulfur is the tenth most abundant element by mass in the universe and the fifth most on Earth. Though sometimes found in pure, native form, sulfur on Earth usually occurs as sulfide and sulfate minerals. Being abundant in native form, sulfur was known in ancient times, being mentioned for its uses in ancient India, ancient Greece, China, and ancient Egypt. Historically and in literature sulfur is also called brimstone, which means "burning stone". Today, almost all elemental sulfur is produced as a byproduct of removing sulfur-containing contaminants from natural gas and petroleum.. Downloahere The greatest commercial use of the element is the production ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Thiobacillus
''Thiobacillus'' is a genus of Gram-negative Betaproteobacteria. ''Thiobacillus thioparus'' is the type species of the genus, and the type strain thereof is the StarkeyT strain, isolated by Robert Starkey in the 1930s from a field at Rutgers University in the United States of America. While over 30 "species" have been named in this genus since it was defined by Martinus Beijerinck in 1904, (the first strain was observed by the biological oceanographer Alexander Nathansohn in 1902 - likely what we would now call ''Halothiobacillus neapolitanus''), most names were never validly or effectively published. The remainder were either reclassified into ''Paracoccus'', ''Starkeya'' (both in the Alphaproteobacteria); '' Sulfuriferula'', ''Annwoodia'', ''Thiomonas'' (in the Betaproteobacteria); ''Halothiobacillus'', ''Guyparkeria'' (in the Gammaproteobacteria), or ''Thermithiobacillus'' or ''Acidithiobacillus'' (in the Acidithiobacillia).

Latin
Latin (, or , ) is a classical language belonging to the Italic branch of the Indo-European languages. Latin was originally a dialect spoken in the lower Tiber area (then known as Latium) around present-day Rome, but through the power of the Roman Republic it became the dominant language in the Italian region and subsequently throughout the Roman Empire. Even after the fall of Western Rome, Latin remained the common language of international communication, science, scholarship and academia in Europe until well into the 18th century, when other regional vernaculars (including its own descendants, the Romance languages) supplanted it in common academic and political usage, and it eventually became a dead language in the modern linguistic definition. Latin is a highly inflected language, with three distinct genders (masculine, feminine, and neuter), six or seven noun cases (nominative, accusative, genitive, dative, ablative, and vocative), five declensions, four verb conjug ...

Chemotroph
A Chemotroph is an organism that obtains energy by the oxidation of electron donors in their environments. These molecules can be organic (chemoorganotrophs) or inorganic ( chemolithotrophs). The chemotroph designation is in contrast to phototrophs, which use photons. Chemotrophs can be either autotrophic or heterotrophic. Chemotrophs can be found in areas where electron donors are present in high concentration, for instance around hydrothermal vents. Chemoautotroph Chemoautotrophs, in addition to deriving energy from chemical reactions, synthesize all necessary organic compounds from carbon dioxide. Chemoautotrophs can use inorganic energy sources such as hydrogen sulfide, elemental sulfur, ferrous iron, molecular hydrogen, and ammonia or organic sources to produce energy. Most chemoautotrophs are extremophiles, bacteria or archaea that live in hostile environments (such as deep sea vents) and are the primary producers in such ecosystems. Chemoautotrophs generally fall int ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
