TL;DR: The predicted proteins encoded in DNA isolated from environmental microbial community samples reveal habitat-specific metabolic demands as discussed by the authors, which can reveal habitat specific metabolic demands of the microbial community and its habitat.
Journal ArticleDOI
λ ZAP: a bacteriophage λ expression vector with in vivo excision properties
TL;DR: A lambda insertion type cDNA cloning vector, Lambda ZAP, has been constructed in this article, which eliminates the need to subclone DNA inserts from the lambda phage into a plasmid by restriction digestion and ligation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The complete genome of the hyperthermophilic bacterium Aquifex aeolicus
Gerard Deckert,Patrick V. Warren,Terry Gaasterland,William G. Young,Anna L. Lenox,David E. Graham,Ross Overbeek,Marjory A. Snead,Martin Keller,Monette Aujay,Robert Huber,Robert A. Feldman,Jay M. Short,Gary J. Olsen,Ronald V. Swanson +14 more
TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of A. aeolicus is described, consisting of 1,551,335 base pairs, and it is shown that the use of oxygen (albeit at very low concentrations) as an electron acceptor is allowed by the presence of a complex respiratory apparatus.
