CAMINIBACTER HYDROGENIPHILUS
| Class: | Epsilon Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Caminibacter |
| Species: | Caminibacter hydrogeniphilus |
| Description: | Caminibacter hydrogeniphilus,a novel thermophilic, hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium isolated from an East Pacific Rise hydrothermal vent. The cells were rod-shaped (1.01-5 x 0.5 micron), motile with polar flagella. They grew at temperatures between 50 and 70 degrees C (optimum 60 degrees C; doubling time approximately 1.5 h), at between pH 5.0 and 7.5 (optimum around pH 5.5-6.0) and in between 10 and 40 g NaCl l-1 (optimum 20-25 g l-1). Cells grew chemolithoautotrophically in a H2/CO2 atmosphere (80:20; 200 kPa). Poor heterotrophic growth was observed on complex organic substrates. |
