About the Halobacterium sp Oct 2000 (haloHalo1) assembly (sequences)

Species Information

The Halobacterium sp. NRC-1 genome is 2.57 Million bp long and contains approximately 2674 predicted genes. Halobacterium is a halophilic aerobic euryarchaeon found under conditions of extremely high salinity, at an optimum of 4.3M salt. It is a mesophile which grows optimally at 42C. A well-developed genetic system is available for this species.

Taxonomy: Archaea; Euryarchaeota; Halobacteria; Halobacteriales; Halobacteriaceae; Halobacterium.

The most recent genome sequence draft was released Oct 2000 by the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, University of Washington, but there is no associated genome publication to date.

Sample position queries

A genome position can be specified by chromosomal coordinate range, COGID, or keywords from the GenBank or TIGR description of a gene. The available chromosome/plasmid names are:

Browser Chrom/Plasmid Name Length (bp) GC Content (%) Gene Count NCBI RefSeq Accession

plasmid_pNRC100 191346 57.91 176 NC_001869

chr 2014239 67.91 2127 NC_002607

plasmid_pNRC200 365425 59.22 371 NC_002608

The following list shows examples of valid position queries for thisgenome:

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).
