CAMINIBACTER MEDIATLANTICUS
| Class: | Epsilon Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Caminibacter |
| Species: | Caminibacter mediatlanticus |
| Description: | Caminibacter mediatlanticus is a thermophilic bacterium that was isolated from an active deep-sea hydrothermal vent chimney on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at a depth of 2000 meters. This organism is able to reduce nitrate to ammonia and may play a role in the nitrogen cycle of the deep sea. |
