Species Information

The Caldivirga maquilingensis IC-167 genome is 2.08 Million bp long and contains approximately 2045 predicted genes.

Taxonomy: Archaea; Crenarchaeota; Thermoprotei; Thermoproteales; Thermoproteaceae; Caldivirga.

The most recent genome sequence draft was released Nov 2007 by the DOE Joint Genome Institute/UCSC, but there is no associated genome publication to date.

Isolation: Int J Syst Bacteriol 49:1157-63 (1999) Itoh T, Suzuki K, Sanchez PC, Nakase T, "Caldivirga maquilingensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a new genus of rod-shaped crenarchaeote isolated from a hot spring in the Philippines."

Abstract: Two novel hyperthermophilic, rod-shaped crenarchaeotes were isolated from an acidic hot spring in the Philippines. Cells were mostly straight or slightly curved rods 0.4-0.7 micron in width. Bent cells, branched cells, and cells bearing globular bodies were commonly observed. The isolates were heterotrophs and grew anaerobically and microaerobically. The addition of archaeal cell extract or a vitamin mixture to the medium significantly stimulated growth. The isolates grew over a... [Click above reference link for full abstract]

The Archaeal Genome Browsers at UCSC were developed by members of theLowe Lab (Kevin Schneider,Katherine Pollard, Andy Pohl, Todd Lowe) and Robert Baertsch, with significant support fromthe UCSC Human GenomeBrowser group.The Archaeal Browsers are run by a slightly modifiedversion of the UCSC Human GenomeBrowser system. All queries, bug reports, content corrections, suggested improvements,and new track data submissions should be sent to Todd Lowe (lowe@soe.ucsc.edu).
