Journal ArticleDOI
A new symbiotic nanoarchaeote (Candidatus Nanoclepta minutus) and its host (Zestosphaera tikiterensis gen. nov., sp. nov.) from a New Zealand hot spring.
Emily St. John,Yitai Liu,Mircea Podar,Mircea Podar,Matthew B. Stott,Jennifer Meneghin,Zhiqiang Chen,Kirill Lagutin,Kevin A. Mitchell,Anna-Louise Reysenbach +9 more
TL;DR: Based on phylogenetic, physiological and genomic data, Ncl-1 and NZ3T represent novel genera in the Nanoarchaeota and the Desulfurococcaceae, respectively, with the proposed names Candidatus Nanoclepta minutus and Zestosphaera tikiterensis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex subsurface hydrothermal fluid mixing at a submarine arc volcano supports distinct and highly diverse microbial communities.
Anna-Louise Reysenbach,Emily St. John,Jennifer Meneghin,Gilberto E. Flores,Mircea Podar,Nina Dombrowski,Anja Spang,Stéphane L'Haridon,Susan E. Humphris,Cornel E. J. de Ronde,Fabio Caratori Tontini,Maurice A. Tivey,Valerie K. Stucker,Lucy C. Stewart,Lucy C. Stewart,Alexander Diehl,Wolfgang Bach +16 more
TL;DR: In insights into how microbial community composition and function reflect subtly different fluid chemistries resulting from subsurface fluid interactions with distinct alteration mineral assemblages, it is shown that these systems represent oases of phylogenetically diverse Archaea and Bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) of W. gerlachensis encodes putative tungsten-dependent membrane transport systems, as well as pathways for anaerobic oxidation of sugars probably mediated by Tungstendependent ferredoxin oxidoreductases that are expressed during growth as discussed by the authors .
Journal ArticleDOI
Deep-sea Hydrothermal Vent Metagenome-assembled Genomes Provide Insight into the Phylum Nanoarchaeota
TL;DR: Three nanoarchaeotal metagenome-assembled genomes from deep-sea hydrothermal vent sites at the Eastern Lau Spreading Center, Guaymas Basin and the Mid-Cayman Rise are recovered and represent novel genera in the Nanoarchaeota, including CRISPR repeat regions and marker genes for gluconeogenesis and archaeal flagella.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marinitoga Lauensis sp. nov., A Novel Deep-sea Hydrothermal Vent Thermophilic Anaerobic Heterotroph with a Prophage
TL;DR: Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence comparisons indicated that strain LG1T was affiliated to the genus Marinitoga within the order Petrotogales, and genome analysis revealed the presence of a prophage sharing high sequence homology with the viruses MPV1, MCV1 and MCV2 hosted by Mar initoga strains.
